Product Description
THE NEW STANDARD OF TALICA
Setting the standard for small 2-speed lever drag excellence, the all-new Shimano 23 Talica 16 IIA 2-Speed Jigging Reel once again raises the bar as Shimano's flagship reel. It delivers ultra-smooth reeling and formidable drag power to conquer extended battles with trophy game fish. The introduction of Shimano's innovative Infinity Drive technology revolutionizes the drag system, boosting drag force while reducing side-load pressure, resulting in up to 30% lighter rotation during intense encounters and high-drag scenarios.
The latest generation of Talica introduces X-Protect technology, enhancing water resistance in crucial areas to bolster durability without compromising the reel's lightweight feel. Furthermore, it includes the Light-Line Drag Cam, offering added adaptability with a gentler drag curve for anglers employing monofilament or lighter fluorocarbon leaders.
Crafted with a HAGANE Body constructed from highly rigid aluminum, this reel sheds weight while eliminating body flex, warping, and distortion, ensuring smooth reeling with minimal power loss during demanding battles. In an improvement over its predecessor, the palming side plate is now 6% smaller, enhancing overall ergonomics and handling.
