Shimano SLX BFS XG Reel, Left Hand

Shimano SLX BFS XG Baitcasting Reel, Left Hand

The Shimano SLX BFS 2025 is a baitcasting reel designed for Bait Finesse fishing, ideal for use with light lures. The new model is equipped with an ESD Extra Strong Duralumin spool, lighter than the previous version, allowing faster acceleration and precise casts with lures starting from 3.5g, without the risk of backlashes, thanks to the FTB magnetic braking system. The body is made from Hagane aluminum alloy for rigidity and durability, while the balanced S3D spool reduces vibrations during casting.

The X-SHIP gears provide increased retrieval efficiency, and the sealed S-ARB bearings resist corrosion, making it suitable for saltwater use as well. The reel features the Exciting Sound Drag system for drag, with an audible click during line release, a star drag with click, and a Super Free Spool design for smooth rotation. The Shimano SLX BFS is the ideal solution for anglers seeking precision and control in finesse fishing, without sacrificing reliability and versatility.
