SHIMANO 24 Force Master 601

A powerful compact that has everything in your hands. What is an electric reel that anyone can control more intuitively and with peace of mind, expanding and deepening the enjoyment of fishing? The Force Master 600 series pursues and evolves this question. Touch Drive Speed Lock evolved based on the concept of "not letting the hooked fish fall." Hooking mode allows instant electric hooking in any position. NEW fall lever that allows you to control the fall speed. By installing these new features, we have upgraded the operability of the electric reel to a new dimension in terms of both winding and falling lures. In addition, the display that provides information to anglers has been changed to color, and it is equipped with a Kenshimumaru screen that conveys underwater information. We also have the information skills to ensure you don't miss any opportunities. It allows you to enjoy stress-free winding, whether it's electric or manually wound. We offer all anglers the fun of controlling electric reels as they wish.

The concept is "Powerful and compact, everything in your hand"
To what extent can an electric reel move simultaneously with human will? What if you could operate it naturally, as if you were holding it in your hand, as you felt it. At the thrilling moment of hooking, in the middle of a breathtaking fight, you could control it instinctively, as if you were breathing. In order to aim for true operability, not only mechanical values are required, but also functionality and design rooted in ergonomics that do not interfere with human movement. The new Force Master 600 adds advanced information power to reliable power and speed, along with operability and design that can be handled more intuitively and with peace of mind, and is packaged in a highly versatile compact body. Introducing a powerful compact that has everything in your hand.

The answer to the operability of an electric reel "not letting the fish get away" is here
Evolved operability, touch drive speed lock. Touch Drive Speed Lock allows you to instantly reel in the line at the desired speed (mid-speed setting) with one touch. Just like the accelerator of a car, pressing Touch Drive again accelerates and releasing it decelerates, allowing you to freely control the speed to follow the movement of your target. In what situations is it actually useful? For example, when a hairtail bites and the preset mid-speed is too slow to catch it, pressing Touch Drive again will accelerate it faster than the mid-speed, and releasing Touch Drive will decelerate it back to the mid-speed. The advantage of this operation is that it is now possible to easily prevent pulling (loosening) immediately after placing a load on the tip.
You can easily accelerate and decelerate according to the rod action, whether it's pumping when fighting with bluefish or delicately lifting up with a thin line for a bait-and-switch red sea bream.

Hooking mode. Speedier hooking is possible!
The difference from the above modes is that you can reel in faster than the mid-speed with one touch. For example, it is suitable for fish species that require instantaneous fast winding, such as the feeding of Tenya Tachiuo, and by instantly winding at high speed, it is possible to hook more quickly.

Easily and accurately control the fall speed
The fall lever allows you to easily and accurately control the fall speed, which was previously difficult to control. It is now possible to fish more strategically with a slow fall. The new fall lever installed in the Force Master 600 series is equipped with a one-way roller bearing inside, so there is no resistance to the handle rotation or motor winding even when the fall tension (brake) is applied.
The fall brake force can handle up to a load equivalent to an 80-gou weight. With various fishing such as Tenya Tachiuo, Komasemadai, Otoshikomi, and squid, you can reproduce the hit pattern by checking the fall speed displayed on the counter.

The high torque and power of the MUTEKI MOTOR+ and the maximum drag force of 10kg are real fishing power
The motor installed in the Force Master 600 series is the MUKTEKI Motor+, which maintains high torque even at high temperatures and exerts strong power. In terms of actual fishing, it has excellent response when driven, and you can feel the advantage in all scenes of actual fishing, such as touching up the tackle, hooking, and fighting. The drag force, which is the key to mastering the performance of the motor, has been increased by 25% to 10 kg. It allows you to reel in dragon-class hairtails and will not flinch when fighting with bluefish.

Palming that can be controlled with one hand and lightweight
The S compact body, which places the power cable connector on the handle side, realizes palming that wraps around your hand. While having enough line capacity and power for hairtails, red sea bream, and grunt, the reel size is kept at the same height as Shimano's smallest electric reel, the Force Master 200, and you can operate the touch drive and speed clutch with the palmed hand. In addition, we have implemented and enhanced new functions such as a new fall lever, increased drag force, and a color display, while reviewing the internal structure to achieve a lighter weight without sacrificing strength and durability.

Versatility that can be used with a variety of fish species
PE2 300m/PE3 200m. This line capacity means that it can cover a wide range of fishing up to a depth of 200 meters. For example, it is suitable for hairtail, bait-and-switch, bluefish, light drop-off, flounder, tilefish, shallow-water spear squid, rosy sea bass, grunt, striped jack, and horse mackerel fishing. Equipped with advanced functions, the Force Master 600 series is highly versatile and can greatly expand the range of fishing with just one unit.
