Baitcast Reels

A modification of Shimano's popular and reliable Calcutta TE series reels, the Calcutta TE 400LJV Round Baitcast Reel is specifically designed to be used with the Lucanus jig system. Featuring a cold forged aluminum frame, machined aluminum spool and stamped aluminum non-handle-side sideplate, the Calcutta TE 400LJV Reel is outfitted with an adjustable handle shank for super slow and powerful retrieves. The Calcutta TE 400 LJV Round Baitcast Reel's High Efficiency Gearing (HEG) eliminates flex in the drivetrain for ultra-smooth, high-speed retrieves with an incredible amount of torque. Another valuable feature the Calcutta TE 400LJV delivers is Shimano?s Variable Brake System (VBS) which uses centrifugal force instead of magnets to manage spool speed on the cast. The VBS provides an easy to manage, more consistent spool speed to help eliminate back-play and take advantage of the reel's casting distance, while the Super Stopper Anti-Reverse eliminates all back-play in the handle for instant hooking power. Features: Cold forged aluminum frame Stamped aluminum handle-side sideplate Cold forged aluminum non-handle-side sideplate Machined aluminum spool High Efficiency Gearing Drilled top crossbar Adjustable handle shank for super slow retrieves and power Ergonomic handle grip S A-RB (Shielded A-RB ball bearings) A-RB (Anti-Rust Bearings) roller bearing Recessed reel foot CTE clicker Super Stopper Anti-Reverse Assist Stopper Back-up Anti-Reverse Easy access sideplate Rubber handle grip Titanium levelwind insert Dartainium drag Non-disengaging Levelwind System Variable Brake System (VBS)

It's here -- the limited-edition baitcaster that took Japan by storm is now Team Daiwa's flagship reel! The Steez is the lightest, easiest casting metal-bodied baitcaster in existence. With its ''super metal'' magnesium frame and side-plate, it weighs only 5.5 ounces -- like holding air in your hands! The connection you'll feel with your lure is astounding. The ultra-compact body and full-sized gearbox house an incredible 12-bearing system (11 ball bearings plus an Infinite Anti-Reverse roller bearing) in support of the free-floating super-lightweight Duralumin dimpled spool. The ''swept'' handle and drag star deliver pure cranking comfort and, with the Dura-Loc? pinion, provide unrelenting power. Acclaimed Magforce?-V cast control; both the spool rake and drag are micro-click adjustable, and the advanced 8-disc drag system performs smoothly, even wet. FREE neoprene bag reel case. For freshwater use only. Line recovery in inches per handle turn.

Lightweight meets light-speed in Team Daiwa's Steez High-Speed Baitcast Reels. Boasting a blazing fast 7.1:1 gear ratio and an ultra-light yet durable magnesium body design, the Steez High-Speed Reels offer bass fisherman the ultimate combination of lightweight performance and line-burning speed! Steez High-Speed Reels feature a free-floating, A7075 aluminum spool that starts up fast and spins longer. This innovative spool design works in conjunction with Daiwa's exclusive Magforce -V automatic anti-backlash system to allow for long, trouble-free casts. Inside the Steez High-Speed Baitcast Reels are eleven precision ball bearings, plus a roller bearing, to ensure maximum smoothness and reliable operation, while the tough aluminum drive gear and phosphor bronze pinion deliver the fish-fighting power needed to overtake big, stubborn bass. For even more fish fighting power, each Steez Reel is equipped with an eight-disc wet drag with micro-click adjustment for smoothness and consistency you can depend on under pressure. Daiwa's Swept Handle design moves the handle closer to the rod's centerline which results in less wobble, a better feel and increased winding leverage. The Steez 103SHA features a standard spool design, while the 100SHA is equipped with a high-capacity, U-shaped spool ideal for accommodating heavier test lines. Features: Ultra-fast 7.1:1 gear ratio The lightest high-speed reels of their kind Eleven precision ball bearings, plus roller bearing Magnesium frame and handle-side sideplate Swept handle for less wobble, better feel and maximum winding leverage Tough, A7075 tempered aluminum drive gear and phosphor bronze pinion Free-floating A7075 aluminum alloy spool starts faster and spins longer Fast spool changes Magforce -V automatic magnetic spool brake Eight-disc wet drag with precision click adjustment Precision-click free-spool adjustment Infinite Anti-Reverse

Advanced digital circuitry creates the ultimate long-cast, and the patented Super Stopper? technology helps to reduce backlash! Can you imagine flipping a shallow stumpfield from 50' away? Or covering a dropoff as long as a football field with just one cast? The revolutionary Calcutta TE DC is here! With 10 precision anti-rust ball bearings, an aircraft-quality A7075 aluminum Lo-Mass? Drilled Spool, and Super Free? high-speed gearing, this remarkable reel can exceed 30,000 rpm on the cast. That's 70-75% more spool rotation than conventional cast control systems, which translates to casting distance like you've only dreamed of before -- or the ability to use far less effort when executing a traditional cast. Its water-sealed digital circuit board collects the electromagnetic energy created during freespool, then uses it to power the Digital Braking System as the cast is completed. An external dial lets you select one of 8 pre-programmed braking patterns. With up to 10,000 braking updates per cast, your lure flies smooth and far, with almost no chance of a backlash! Equipped with all the goodies: aluminum frame/side-plates, High Efficiency Gearing? with oversized Super Duralumin main gear, Super Stopper? instant anti-reverse with Assist Stopper backup, and click-adjustable Dartanium? drag. Line recovery in inches per handle turn.

Winner of the 2006 ICAST Award for Best Freshwater Reel! The original Digital Control (DC) system Shimano's Calais DC had one pre-programmed braking curve on the internal DC circuit board of the reel, and eight settings along this curve worked by increasing or decreasing the amount of braking force. This was an excellent "all-around" curve, ideal for most bass fishing and inshore applications. However, the original DC system was not ideal for skipping, pitching, and other applications requiring slow spool speeds. To address these slow-speed concerns, Shimano thoroughly analyzed casting mechanisms for various environmental and mechanical conditions. They divided these situations into four different modes and created four profiles to handle each situation. Each mode has 8 different brake-strength settings for 32 brake settings total. Calais DC Modes and Profiles X Mode: Extreme Distance ? a very specific profile ideal for surf casting or competition distance casting. L Mode: Long Distance ? an all-around profile for most fishing applications. A Mode: Accuracy ? ideal for accuracy casting styles like pitching and skipping. W Mode: Wind ? facilitates long casts in heavy headwind conditions. Calais DC Features 4x8 Digital Control? S A-RB? Bearings Magnumlite spool Super Free (SF?) High Efficiency Gearing (HEG?)
