The Shimano Stradic FM Spinning Reels boast an illustrious history with two decades of setting the bar for excellence. Shimano is famed for its fishing tackle innovation, and the Stradic FM lives up to this impressive reputation with cutting-edge technology, design, and features to excel in the water. Fresh and inshore saltwater anglers are sure to find a model to meet their goals, ready to provide reliable service.
The Stradic FM features trickle-down technologies from Shimano's flagship Stella reel. InfinityXross gear tooth design increases surface contact, spreads load out over a larger surface area, and enhances efficiency and durability. Working along with Hagane cold foraged gearing and MicroModule II, the gearing not only feels remarkable with every turn of the handle out of the box but continues to feel the same way for years of use to come.
Infinity Drive technology provides unparalleled cranking power for even the toughest fights, while the Dura Cross Drag system yields ten times the felt drag life and ensures smoothness and durability. Shimano X-Protect technology further safeguards the Stradic, utilizing coatings and a unique labyrinth design to prevent water ingress, all while minimizing drag and effortlessly prolonging the reel's lifespan. The new Anti-Twist Fin adds an extra layer of protection, minimizing the space between the bail arm and roller. Specifications.

The Shimano Curado DC 150 Baitcasting Reel is built on the legacy of durability, dependability and versatility that Curado is known for, now with Shimano's unique DC braking technology.
Shimano’s new Digital Control braking system utilizes a microcomputer to monitor spool speed 1,000 times every second and apply the perfect amount of brake to prevent backlash and maximize distance.
Anglers of all skill levels will appreciate less thumbing and trouble-free casting in all conditions. In the past, reels that utilized Shimano's DC technology sold for upwards of $500...the new Curado DC comes in at only $269.99!

The Shimano Tranx 500 Baitcast Reel is built for anglers who refuse to compromise. Whether you're dropping irons on yellowtail, slow-rolling swimbaits on white seabass, or grinding deep structure for trophy bass, the Tranx 500 delivers the torque, drag, and durability to handle it all — in both saltwater and freshwater.
Built for the Tranx 500 Angler
The Tranx 500 fills the gap between a standard baitcaster and a conventional reel. It's compact enough to cast all day, yet powerful enough to stop a 60 lb yellowtail in its tracks. With 25 lbs of Cross Carbon Drag and a super-strong levelwind, this reel is engineered for the moments that matter most.
Why the Tranx 500 Stands Apart
Most baitcasters sacrifice either power or smoothness. The Tranx 500 refuses to choose. HAGANE Body construction keeps the frame rigid under load, while MicroModule Gear technology delivers a silky-smooth retrieve even after years of hard use. X-Ship reduces gear friction for more torque and longer casts — a combination you simply won't find at this price point.
HG or PG — Pick Your Weapon
The HG (High Gear, 6.6:1) retrieves 43 inches per crank — ideal for working irons, Waxwings, Rapala X-Raps, and any technique where faster line recovery keeps your lure in the zone. The PG (Power Gear, 4.6:1) retrieves 30 inches per crank, delivering maximum torque for deep cranking, heavy swimbaits, and turning big fish away from structure. Both models share the same 25 lb max drag and 6+1 bearing system.
The Right Pick If...
- You target yellowtail, white seabass, tuna, or large calico bass
- You need a baitcaster that can handle 65–100 lb braid
- You want one reel that works from the kelp to the deep reef
- You're upgrading from a standard baitcaster and need more stopping power
- You fish heavy swimbaits, irons, or large topwater lures
Best Fishing Techniques
- Iron fishing — HG model excels at fast retrieves with jigs and irons
- Swimbait fishing — PG model delivers the torque to work large paddle tails and glide baits
- Deep cranking — PG's power gear ratio grinds through resistance at depth
- Topwater — HG keeps pace with walk-the-dog and prop baits
- Live bait — smooth drag and levelwind handle live mackerel and sardine presentations
Best Conditions
- Offshore and nearshore saltwater — kelp beds, reefs, and open water
- Freshwater reservoirs and lakes targeting trophy bass and stripers
- Boat fishing where casting distance and line capacity matter
- High-pressure situations where drag consistency is non-negotiable
Best For
- Species: Yellowtail, White Seabass, Bluefin Tuna, Calico Bass, Striped Bass, Large Freshwater Bass
- Techniques: Iron fishing, swimbait, deep cranking, live bait, topwater
- Line: PowerPro Maxcuatro 65–100 lb braid recommended
Key Features
- HAGANE Body — rigid aluminum frame resists flex under heavy loads
- X-Ship — reduces gear friction for more torque and longer casts
- MicroModule Gear — ultra-smooth retrieve with refined gear tooth design
- Cross Carbon Drag — consistent, heat-resistant stopping power up to 25 lbs
- S3D Spool — reduces vibration for smoother casts
- Super Strong Levelwind — handles heavy braid without cutting or fraying
- Comfortable Power Handle — all-day grip for extended sessions
- 6+1 Bearings — smooth operation under load

Tackle Express Tips
- Spool with PowerPro Maxcuatro: The Tranx 500's large spool capacity shines with 65–80 lb Maxcuatro — you get incredible sensitivity, zero stretch, and enough capacity for deep water drops.
- Match the gear ratio to your technique: Don't default to HG just because it's faster. If you're fishing heavy swimbaits or grinding deep structure, the PG's torque advantage will save your wrist and turn more fish.
- Rinse after every saltwater session: Despite its saltwater rating, a quick freshwater rinse of the levelwind and handle knobs after each trip will dramatically extend the life of this reel.
FAQ
What's the difference between the HG and PG models?
The HG (High Gear, 6.6:1) retrieves 43 inches per crank — best for fast-moving lures like irons and topwater. The PG (Power Gear, 4.6:1) retrieves 30 inches per crank with more torque — best for heavy swimbaits, deep cranking, and turning big fish.
Can the Tranx 500 handle saltwater fishing?
Yes. The Tranx 500 is built for both saltwater and freshwater use. Its HAGANE Body and Cross Carbon Drag system are designed to withstand the corrosive demands of saltwater environments. Rinse after each use for best longevity.
What line do you recommend for the Tranx 500?
We recommend PowerPro Maxcuatro in 65–80 lb for most saltwater applications. For freshwater or lighter inshore work, 30–50 lb braid is a great choice. The large spool handles high-capacity loads with ease.
Inshore anglers need no longer worry about baitcaster durability. The Shimano Tranx 200 Baitcast Reel represents the culmination of more than 10 years' study on the effects and prevention of corrosion. With advanced CoreProtect construction, the Tranx 200's body is impervious to saltwater, while additional technologies – including S-ARB Shielded Anti-Rust bearings and the rubber-gasketed Waterproof Drag system – further protect key internals from environmental degradation.
The Tranx 200 also boasts a number of high-performance features that bode well for anglers targeting inshore beasts. The all-metal HGN Hagane Body design translates to ultimate strength and rigidity, for maximum cranking power under heavy load; the S3D Shimano Stable Spool Design incorporates a thin, solid aluminum wall for smooth running on both the cast and retrieve.
- Super-durable, low-profile baitcaster

The Shimano Tranx 400B is a heavy-duty low-profile baitcasting reel for anglers who throw large baits, pull hard-running fish, and fish confidently in both freshwater and inshore saltwater. Its rigid frame, powerful drag, and roomy spool give you the control to turn demanding fights into fish-at-the-net moments.
Why It Earns a Spot on Your Deck
When a standard bass reel feels outmatched by a big swimbait, deep water, or a strong saltwater run, the Tranx 400B brings the extra backbone you need without giving up the palmable feel of a low-profile reel. It is a practical choice for anglers who want one powerful casting reel that can move between trophy freshwater work and serious inshore duty.
Built for Heavy Work
The CoreSolid Body and HAGANE Body construction help keep the reel rigid under load, while X-Ship supports smooth, efficient gear alignment during long retrieves and hard fights. The Cross Carbon Drag system delivers up to 22 pounds of smooth stopping power on the B models, and the high-capacity spool leaves room for heavier line and longer runs.
When Lighter Reels Start to Feel Small
Big lures, thick line, and powerful fish can expose flex, limited capacity, and inconsistent drag in lighter reels. The Tranx 400B is designed to solve that problem with a compact, ergonomic body that still brings heavy-tackle strength to the cast and the fight.
Power with a Purpose
- Advantages: heavy-duty construction, strong drag performance, high line capacity, smooth retrieve, and a low-profile shape that is comfortable to fish all day.
- Trade-offs: this is a purpose-built power reel, so it is heavier and more specialized than a finesse or light-lure baitcaster. The HGB models trade some maximum drag for a faster retrieve.
The Right Pick If...
- You throw oversized swimbaits, glide baits, jigs, or live bait.
- You need a low-profile reel for tarpon, halibut, sturgeon, big bass, striped bass, or smaller tuna.
- You fish heavy line and want extra capacity for deep water or long runs.
- You prefer the feel of a baitcaster but need more power than a typical bass reel provides.
Best Fishing Techniques
- Big swimbaits and glide baits for trophy largemouth and striped bass.
- Heavy jigging and large lures for tarpon, halibut, and inshore saltwater species.
- Live-bait presentations where strong drag control and line capacity matter.
- Bottom-oriented presentations for sturgeon and other large freshwater fish.
- Heavy iron and large-profile lures for smaller tuna and yellowtail.
