SHIMANO 18 Exsence CI4+ C3000MHG

Lightweight and high spec! The long-awaited new CI4+ model has arrived in the Exsense series, a dedicated sea bass machine that shines in the field! The lightweight and tough body is colored in dark gunmetal color and is packed with features that are the same as the higher-end models.
The first X-Protect in the CI4+ series is a powerful ally in deep wading games on tidal flats and rivers. Rapid fire drag allows you to have an advantage in dealing with big sea bass.
The four lineups from C3000M to 4000MXG are truly dedicated to sea bass. This item is an item that embodies the desires of anglers.

X-Protect
In addition to water-repellent treatment, Shimano's strong waterproof structure uses a labyrinth structure to prevent water from entering. It solves the difficult problem of increasing the waterproof effect without increasing rotational resistance. In addition, it uses a non-contact type seal, so it does not wear out and the waterproof effect lasts for a long time. Due to its light rotation, it can also be used in the line roller, and the durability of the line roller bearing has been greatly improved in addition to the body part.

New Magnum Light Rotor
The new Magnum Light Rotor achieves a new dimension of light rotation. The symmetrical structure has been changed to an asymmetrical structure. The "veil return mechanism" that was built into the line roller side has been attached and transplanted to the cam side. By reducing the weight of the line roller, making the veil out of titanium, and optimizing the placement of the rotor thickness, we have succeeded in reducing inertia by up to about 14%. The rotor rigidity on the line roller side has been increased by up to 30% compared to the previous model!

G Free Body
The sliding functional parts that move the spool back and forth are placed on the top of the reel body, and we have succeeded in moving the center of gravity of the entire reel closer to the hand. This improves the sense of unity with the rod, reduces fatigue caused by casting, and improves rod operability.

Rapid Fire Drag
The drag force changes greatly in response to the number of rotations of the drag knob, making this a very useful function in situations where you want to adjust the drag instantly, such as when you want to stop a fish around a structure or when a fish suddenly dives at your feet.

One-piece Veil
Equipped with a lightweight, strong, seamless one-piece veil. Beautiful in appearance and trouble-free.
