SHIMANO 18 Grappler Premium 151XG

In pursuit of a new level of light jigging, this innovative reel adds a fall function to the smooth winding performance of the micro module gear. In addition to smooth line release through level wind linkage, the new fall lever mechanism allows you to freely adjust the fall speed. The counter displays the fall and winding speeds, creating an aggressive game from the moment you release the clutch. In addition, the cold forged long handle and CI4+ round knob allow you to fight with large fish. It can be used in a wide range of situations, from jigging to light tenya tachiuo.

Fall lever
A newly designed lever that allows you to easily and accurately control the fall speed, which was previously difficult to control. More strategic fishing is possible, such as high speed in the air layer and low speed near the bottom. The forged lever is designed with a focus on texture and rigidity and can be operated with the palmed hand.

Fall speed display
The fall/winding speed is displayed on the LCD screen. You can also grasp the water depth at the same time, so you can accurately grasp the hit pattern at each moment.

Level Wind Linkage
The spool and level wind are linked in this structure. The line is released straight, allowing the jig to fall smoothly. The drag operates smoothly even during a fight, so you can feel safe even when fishing with thin lines.

Micro Module Gear
Shimano's unique gear system achieves smooth transmission performance by closely meshing a large number of fine teeth that are as small as possible. It provides a silky winding feel that you have never experienced before, and ensures strength that surpasses conventional gears.

HAGANE Body
By using lightweight, highly rigid metals such as aluminum and magnesium, it firmly suppresses the bending, distortion, and twisting of the reel. It firmly protects the internal parts and delicate gear meshing, allowing for smooth reeling.

60mm cold forged single handle + CI4 + knob

X Protect
Uses Shimano's powerful waterproof system X Protect. By using a waterproof wall and special water-repellent grease together, it firmly protects the drive gear shaft spool side bearing from water intrusion. It has evolved further to a highly durable offshore specification.

Carbon cross washer
The synergistic effect of the level wind linkage and carbon cross washer makes the drag movement surprisingly smooth.
