The Shimano Curado BFS (Bait Finesse System) expands the Curado lineup of low-profile reels while redefining finesse fishing for tournament anglers. Inspired by the Japanese Domestic Market (JDM), the Shimano Curado BFS baitcaster utilizes an ultra-lightweight shallow spool designed for thinner diameter lines to allow anglers to cast lightweight lures more effectively than traditional low-profile models.

The Curado BFS incorporates Shimano's Finesse Tune Brake (FTB) system to reduce the spool's weight by moving the braking unit from the spool to the palming side-plate. The result: the spool takes minimal force to turn and allows anglers to effectively cast lightweight tackle.

Unlike traditional magnetic brake systems that maintain the same drag on the spool throughout the cast, Shimano's FTB capitalizes on the cast's centrifugal force and the magnetic brakes automatically adjust to slow down the spool only when braking is needed. Fully adjustable, anglers can fine-tune the FTB with the external dial or by adding or removing individual magnets as needed. The perfect antidote for picky fish, the Shimano Curado BFS is the ideal tool for anglers to downsize baits to increase their success on the water.

Designed by surfcasters for surfcasters, the Shimano Bluewave Surf Bags are built to handle the tough conditions surfcasting anglers endure. Constructed with premium materials and designed to safely hold casting lures and tackle when chasing trophy fish in the surf. The Bluewave Surf Bag is built with premium fabrics and heavy-duty TPU zippers while boasting performance-driven features including vertical tubes for lure storage to prevent hook tangles and a mesh bottom to facilitate rinsing and quick drying of tackle. Available in two sizes — the Medium includes three cylindrical tubes for lure storage and the Large includes four — the Bluewave Surf Bag is an essential accessory for anglers to conquer the surf.

Features:

• Heavy TPU Corrosion-Resistant Zippers
• Heavy Denier Rip-Stop Polyester Fabric
• Heavy-Duty Outer Liner Increases Rigidity

The Shimano Twin Power XD Spinning Reels are the new flagship for targeting the largest of fish with the smallest tackle possible. Known for being extremely light, and exceptionally strong; leaving all the competitors in the dust just from first impression of picking it out of the box. 

 Built with the latest in fishing expertise and design, the Shimano Twin Power XD FA Spinning Reel is a top-of-the-line choice for angling the biggest catches. Its lightweight body and superior strength make it stand out among the competition. Packed with advanced features and benefits, it sets the bar for even the most experienced and rugged fishermen.

The Shimano Twin Power SW Spinning Reels are designed for anglers demanding strength and durability. The TwinPower SWC dominates even the most challenging fighting offshore game fish. Now featuring Infinity Drive to provide anglers with more cranking power under load, the TwinPower SW will put anglers in the driver's seat to win the battle even against the most hard-fighting game fish.

New for 2021, the TwinPower SW 10000 and 14000 models incorporate Shimano's Heatsink Drag to deliver overwhelming drag performance by dissipating heat away from the spool to reduce drag-force drop caused by friction. The Heatsink Drag also provides insulation against potentially-damaging heat flowing into the line to give the anglers increased performance during blistering runs and long fights with hard-fighting game fish.

Whether targeting reef species with jigs or pitching live baits to pelagics, the new TwinPower SW empowers anglers to have a distinct advantage and conquer any battle.

Tournament-tough quality and superb dependability, the Shimano Curado 300 Casting Reel is for anglers who aren’t just chasing fish but those targeting quality over quantity. Incorporating a deep 300-size spool intended for heavy-pound line and the needed capacity for extra-long casts, the Curado 300 features a long handle with wide-grip knobs to provide anglers with the extra power that’s necessary when pulling on big fish.

At the backbone of the Shimano Curado 300 lies its rigid HAGANE Body that prevents flex when that giant finally decides to commit. Available in two gear-ratio options — a standard 4.7:1 and an HG 6.6:1 — the Curado 300 allows anglers to find the right reel to match their fishing style and needs. Engineered with power in mind, the standard 4.7:1 model pulls double-duty for anglers fishing slower, methodical presentations, or when fishing with Alabama rigs or magnum crank baits.

The HG’s 6.6:1 gear ratio provides a slightly faster retrieve and is ideal for anglers aggressively working baits or for quickly picking up topwater slack. Built to fish big baits for big fish, Shimano created the Curado 300 to perform and never back down.

Synonymous with performance, the redesigned line of Shimano Zodias Spinning Rods incorporate Carbon Monocoque technology passed down from Shimano’s elite series of rods that set the industry standard for sensitivity. For 2020, Zodias rods couple the hollow Carbon Monocoque Grip into a CI4+ reel seat to achieve up to 30% more sensitivity than conventionally constructed models, ultimately transmitting vibration from underwater structure, lure action or bites into the palm of angler’s hand. Shimano’s Hi-Power X technology lies at the heart of Zodias rods and benefits anglers by increasing the transfer of energy through the rod for enhanced accuracy and casting distance as well as reduced blank twist for better control when fighting fish.

Features:

• Carbon Monocoque Grip
• Hi-Power X
• CI4+ Reel Seat
• Fuji K Alconite Guides
• Fuji K SiC Tip
• EVA Mid Grip

Fuji Alconite K Semi-Micro Guides and SiC tip minimize weight while allowing smooth knot passage, making them ideal for jigging, crankbaits, frogs, and spinnerbaits in freshwater pursuits.

Users rave about the "crisp feel" and lightweight design, though some note longer handles for shorter effective length. Pair with Shimano Curado reels for optimal synergy.

The Shimano Ocea Jigger Star Drag Reel is a flagship-level star drag jigging reel that uses Shimano's Infinity Drive technology to reduce friction between the pinion gear and spool shaft for paramount cranking power. It uses MicroModule Gearing for an unmatched gear feeling. The Ocea Jigger is available in 1500, 2000, and 4000 sizes. The 1500 size is recommended for fishing 50–80m, while the 2000 size is recommended for fishing 100m.

Looking to change the handle on your Shimano Tranx Reel?  This Shimano Tranx Power Handle is OEM and is made to fit all Tranx 300A and 400A size reels.  This handle fits the Tranx 300, 301, 300HG, 301HG, 400, 401, 400HG, 401HG.

This Shimano made handle is easy to replace, just remove your existing nut lock screw, the nut lock plate, and the chrome nut. Remove your existing handle and replace it with the new handle.  Be careful that the drag star doesn't pop off, it has a spring under it which gives it pressure from below.  Replace the parts you took off making sure not to over tighten the chrome nut. The nut lock plate might take a little adjustment so the plate nut screw lines up with the screw hole.

The paddle handle version is a double handle to give you better balance and more refined retrieves for fishing many types of lures.  The paddle handle works best when working lures or when you just don't need the larger power handle.  We find the paddle handle has better balance but not as much torque.
