• FOR BIG FISHING IN FRESH AND SALT WATER
  The brand new Shimano Tranx was developed “as a workhorse for big fish”. This heavy duty low profile baitcaster is therefore unique in Shimano’s European range. Strong, durable and reliable, it is the ideal companion in both fresh and salt water. This type of reel is usually used when fishing with large lures for strong fish. The Tranx was developed precisely for this purpose. At 330-340g, it is certainly not one of the lightweights, but it is still lighter than comparable reels on the European market and more than 100€ cheaper. Whether in fresh water with jerkbaits, plugs, spinnerbaits or rubber lures over 100g for pike, or for jigging and for use with livebait for strong saltwater fish – the Tranx is made for it!

  ROBUST, RESISTANT AND STRONG – THE NEW SHIMANO TRANX A BAITCAST REEL
  The Shimano Tranx A has been equipped with the Coreprotect system. Coreprotect prevents water from entering the housing, the front of the housing or the roller bearing unit.
  The concept is simple … Coreprotect promotes silky smooth running – even if the roller is designed to be extremely water resistant.
  There are 3 reel components that require special protection: the drag, the housing and the line roller.
  The drag: this is the most difficult part when it comes to water resistance and performance. In order to achieve the water resistance of the drag without jeopardizing the silky smooth running of the reel, a surface treatment was used that allows water to bead up on the outside.
  The housing: Coreprotect uses different types of sealant and a special surface treatment to protect the housing. Anti-reverse has been omitted to increase protection.
