Shimano SLX 71 XT DC HG Baitcasting Reel, Left Hand

Baitcasting Reel Shimano SLX 71 XT DC HG, Left Hand

The Shimano SLX XT DC is a low-profile baitcasting reel equipped with the i-DC5 Intelligent Digital Control system and an MGL III low-inertia spool, optimized for accurate casts and long distances with lures from finesse to medium. The i-DC5 system allows brake selection based on line type and lure weight, providing automatic control and eliminating the risk of backlash. The MGL III spool is ultra-light and spins with minimal friction, maximizing casting performance.

The HAGANE Body aluminum frame with CI4+ side plates delivers stiffness with reduced weight. Micro Module gearing and X-SHIP provide smooth rotation and retrieval power, while the star drag with Cross Carbon Drag maintains consistent pressure during the fight.
