Shimano America

Offshore fishing really puts tackle to the test. No matter the opponent, giant bluefin tuna on 130lb, blue marlin on 80lb or sailfish on 16lb Shimano has the conventional reels necessary to land these fish trip after trip.

	Shimano Charter Special Reels The Charter Special reels have the same quality of craftsmanship found in the TLD series. Featuring a durable lever drag and levelwind, stainless steel gears and ARB (Anti Rust Bearings) and racheting drag lever to reduce chance of drag lever backing off.
	Shimano Speedmaster™ Reels A blazing fast retrieve is required to trigger a strike from certain gamefish. The Speedmaster, with its 6.0:1 gear ratio, will help you catch them. The Speedmaster also features ball bearing titanium drag, stainless steel main and pinion gears, aluminum spool, strike alarm and power handle.
	Shimano TLD® Reels These small, lightweight graphite lever drag reels were hailed as a revolution in saltwater fishing reels almost a decade ago. With literally hundreds of thousands of them in use, they've helped catch everything from spectacular world records to personal bests. Available in 1 or 2 speed reels. If you're ever going to own just one saltwater reel, make these legendary performers "The One"!*2 speed.
	Shimano Torium Reels Maximum versatility, maximum value. Shimano Torium is the ultimate in value for angling situations where live-baiting, bottom fishing, or powerful distance casting are the techniques of choice. This reel eats up line at 6.2:1, and has enough torque to handle big fish from bottom to top. Perfect choice for matching with NEW Trevala Jigging rods for deep jigging reefs and wrecks.
	Shimano Torsa Reels The Torsa® saltwater reels have more speed, more power, more versitility and better castability then any other reel on the market. For speed and power Torso ™ uses HEG ™, an exclusive Shimano gearing system. It has the largest gear Shimano could build, 22% larger then a Trinidad Drive gear and 67% larger then the TLD 25. The oversized drag can generate incredible power for a reel its size. For castability, Shimano has created a cold forged Aluminum spool with a greatly reduced weight and the mass distributed to the outer edges for lower startup inertia. This configuration acts like a bicycle tire and allows the spool to spin longer. The final feature is the Rapid Fire ™ Quick change drag cam system. By simply backing off the preset knob and putting the reel in free spool an angler can change to any one of 9 Rapid fire Drag cams (sold separately). The TS40 had 6 drag cams. The reel comes with the LRS cam. No tools required.
	Rapid Fire Cams Shimano's Rapid Fire Quick change cam system gives the angler an interchangeable drag cam system for every fishing opportunity. Whether it's sailfish, tuna, or just plain bottom fishing, Shimano has engineered the appropriate drag cam to maximize the anglers advantage when fishing large stubborn fish. 9 Models available for the TS16N, 16, 20, and 30 Models. 6 Models available for the TS40.
	Shimano Trinidad Reels One of the toughest, most versatile, feature-filled reels in the Shimano family. High speed, and high power created by Shimano's HEG gearing, and the adjustable clicker tension feature make these reels pure luxury for controlling a variety of large and small live baits. Single piece, machined aluminum frame with an exposed spool rim make these reels bullet proof for maximum spool control on those extra long casts. At 6.2:1 the Shimano Trinidad is also one of the most powerful bottom-fishing reels available. A perfect match with Trevala Jigging rods.
