Shimano Tiagra Overhead Reel 30WLRSA

Description

The Shimano Tiagra A series has been the bench mark forgame reelsfor a number of years. The range feature a slightly darker, heavier gold anodising, a drilled drag quadrant with a drag curve better suited to Australian conditions, and a new design rubberised power handle.

The heavier anodising makes these reels even more resistant to the ravages of salt water, while the click stop drag quadrant permits more precise drag adjustments. The counterbalanced handle falls easily to hand when striking a fish and makes winding easier during the course of a long fight. Its rubberised tackiness combats sweaty palms, which can be a problem during the course of a long fight, especially when fishing more tropical waters.

Another major rule ofgame fishingis that the leverage created by an angler in a chair or stand-up harness with a big marlin, tuna or shark on the end of the line places an enormous amount of pressure on the tackle. Thats why Tiagras one piece frame is machine-cut from an aluminium tube to a thickness of 7mm (the thickest on the market). Its also why Tiagra has A-RB bearings, heavy-duty stainless steel gears, and a two speed shifting mechanism where the pinion and drive gears are continuously meshed.

The series comprises ten models from a smaller 12 size right up to the largest 130 size which means that they will be able to be used for allgame fishingexpeditions.
