Shimano Catana FE Spinning Reel

Shimano Catana FE Reel

The Catana FE is the latest model from Shimano, an extremely versatile reel that can be used for all types of freshwater fishing. Ideal for a wide range of fishing styles, from light to medium-sized lures, its discreet look and remarkable performance are features usually found only in more expensive reels. During use, anglers will immediately notice the improved balance thanks to Shimano's latest G-Free Body design. This design is also found in Shimano's premium reels and ensures easier fishing over extended periods. Smooth operation is provided by three stainless steel ball bearings plus one roller bearing, delivering high performance without issues even when fighting large fish. The spool is made of aluminum with AR-C design, and the revolutionary Varispeed II system enhances casting accuracy and distance, both with monofilament and braided lines.
