The Reel
The new Shimano Sedona 2500 FI Spinning Reel just
got better! It’s now made with the strong and durable Hagane cold
forged gear. It also features 3+1 bearings and 4kg drag output. The
oscillation system is also upgraded to Varispeed for a consistent
spool speed for excellent castability and even line lay. AR-C Spool
for longer casts and Dyna Balance for enhanced sensitivity and
smoothness.
AR-C Spool Management System
Through tens of thousands of casting tests and computer simulations
it has been determined that this new AR-C spool lip design provides
longer casting distances than a standard spool lip design while
preventing backlashes and wind knots from forming. It also allows
the line to flow off the spool in smaller loops during the cast,
which means less slap on the stripper guide. This means longer
casts with less friction.
Dyna Balance
This feature eliminates wobble during the retrieve by counter
balancing the rotor to enhance sensitivity and smoothness. By using
computer balancing, an approach similar to car tire balancing,
Shimano is able to redistribute the rotor weight to create smooth
rotation and eliminate vibrations caused by the reel.
Varispeed
Normal oscillation systems use a constant rotation of the
oscillation gear that, when translated to the cam, provides an
inconsistent spool speed. This results in line lay that stacks at
either end of the spool. By using an oval oscillation gear, Shimano
is able to alter the speed of the oscillation cam to provide a
consistent spool speed. This results in an even line lay that
provides excellent castability and manageability.
HAGANE Gear
Hagane Gear is at the very heart of the reel and creates strength
and durability. The entire cold-forging process is calculated in
minute detail by special 3D design and the result is precision
durability.
The Rod
Built to accommodate a spin reel such as a Baitrunner, the
Shimano Backbone Elite Spinning Rod is ideal for
straylining and casting baits down the berley trail to the awaiting
fish. It’s constructed with exceptionally high quality composite
blanks and is specially made for heavy duty use. What’s more, this
elite spin rod is finished with top quality guides and bindings. So
it really doesn’t matter whether you’re a newbie or an experienced
fisho, this rod’s simply a pleasure to use all day long!
