SHIMANO 25 Stile 100PG

The Stile, a technical game reel, has arrived with even more power and operability. The 55mm long handle enables powerful winding even under heavy loads, and the high-rigidity HAGANE body firmly supports that load. Micro-module gears are installed inside, and the smooth winding performance enhances the angler's concentration. The newly shaped clutch lever is designed for ease of operation and supports technical, aggressive fishing. Furthermore, it is configured with fighting with thin lines in mind, and is equipped with a variety of features such as smooth initial drag release thanks to carbon cross washers and an exciting drag sound that allows you to recognize the drag release by ear. Despite these enhanced mechanisms, it maintains a lightweight body. Its technical and versatile performance has been taken to the next level.

With even more power and maneuverability, be light and technical
While retaining the lightness that is Stile's greatest strength, this time the focus was on significantly improving power and operability. The potential hidden within the highly rigid HAGANE body is unleashed through an internal mechanism that can withstand high loads and numerous functions that enable thrilling battles with thin lines. Light and technical. A "little giant" that will dominate aggressive boat light game fishing in a versatile way.

Strength remains the same, but noise has been greatly reduced. A feeling that brings joy with every turn of the reel
By miniaturizing the teeth of the pinion and main gears and increasing the number of teeth compared to conventional models, gear noise is significantly reduced through denser meshing. Without compromising strength, the smooth winding feel and power transmission are greatly enhanced by the reduced gear noise, adding Shimano's signature smooth winding. The result is a feeling of satisfaction not only during the fight with the fish, but even when retrieving the lure.

Handle load (winding weight) reduced by approximately 6%
The winding resistance is determined by the maximum winding length (calculated from the gear ratio and spool diameter) and the handle length. While the gear ratio is higher than the previous model, the spool diameter is smaller. Furthermore, the handle length is longer than the previous model, resulting in approximately a 6% reduction in handle load (winding resistance) (*).

The benefits of the weight reduction are felt in the handle. The 55mm longer handle enhances winding
The weight reduction measures, combined with the resulting leeway, were focused on the handle. This allowed for an upgrade from the conventional 51mm to a 55mm handle. While maintaining the same 145g weight as its predecessor, the increased winding torque due to the longer handle further expands the range of fishing possibilities.

This allows for smooth and effortless operation while maintaining a three-finger palming grip
For light boat fishing, the most commonly used three-finger grip allows for smooth clutch operation while keeping the thumb position almost unchanged. This newly shaped lever, born from a pursuit of operability, supports technical, aggressive fishing.

The centrifugal brake allows anyone to implement casting and lateral searching strategies
Shimano's unique centrifugal brake enhances casting distance with its rapid spool rotation startup. By suppressing backlash, it makes casting easy for anyone. For example, in filefish fishing, where it's not uncommon to search horizontally when there's no reaction after searching vertically, this is now an essential function.

55mm Long Crank Handle
Eliminates wobble during retrieval, ensuring stable reeling.

Features a beautifully curved 55mm long crank handle with a three-dimensional structure. The double handle design allows the handle knobs at both ends to suppress wobble during rotation, resulting in more stable reeling. The 55mm long design also enables efficient power transmission and powerful retrieval. It excels in various light game fishing from boats, such as鯛ラバ (tai rubber), 川羽鯛 (kawahagi), and 刀魚 (tachiuo).

New Shaped Clutch Lever
A new shaped lever allows for light clutch operation while maintaining almost the same thumb position during three-finger palming, the most common grip used in light boat fishing. The carefully designed lever shape, born from a pursuit of operability, supports technical and aggressive fishing.
