Shimano Sustain FG Reel,
Shimano has been designing top quality fishing reels since 1970 and has certainly picked up a lot of knowledge along the way that it puts to use in all of its latest products. Alongside knowledge of the trade came awareness of the planet’s environmental situation, so Shimano has adopted strong environmental ethics which it has put forward into its designed, allowing you to be confident that when you invest in its products, such as this Sustain FG Reel, you are also investing in a more environmentally sound future and helping to conserve the planet.

It boasts a boat full of features, making it incredibly versatile and a superb tool in many angling situations. It has been rated for use with mono, fluorocarbon and PowerPro lines, so you can really mix up how you utilise this reel.
Just one of its phenomenal features is the X-Ship which provides this stunning reel with immense cranking power.

No longer will you have to wrestle with a tough fish and resentfully let it go in the end for fear of damage to your reel, the Shimano Sustain FG Reel can handle even the most ferocious fish.
The weight of a reel is always an important factor and Shimano is well versed in this and consequently designed the FG Reel to be as lightweight as possible. It has a number of weight saving components including the aluminium frame and new Magnumlite CI4 Rotor (1000 to 4000 models). Originally designed by Shimano’s cycling division, CI4 is a carbon-based material which Shimano’s fishing division soon realised would be an excellent component for a reel. It is ultra-light, ultra-strong, rigid, and highly durable making it a perfect material for use in one of its top-quality reels. Not only that, but it also offers incredible durability in the parts of the reel that are most often exposed to severe abrasion and friction, providing protection where it needs it most.
Another one of its innovative features is the rapid fire drag system that enables you to move between high level finesse fishing to dirtier battles in less than half a turn. With this reel you can get stuck into a fight with a fierce fish in a quarter of the time that it used to take, allowing you to cast your rod as much as possible during your angling session. This reel is truly one of the finest on the market today, particularly in terms of its ability as a spinning bass reel.
The amount of features this Sustain FG Reel has is purely astounding. It also has an aluminium sideplate and spool along with a machined aluminium handle. Aluminium is incredibly lightweight, but is perfectly suited to the saltwater environment as well thanks to its excellent corrosion resistance. This resistance boosts the reel’s durability, ensuring that it will have a long life as a part of your gear.
Not only does this reel provide an exceptional performance, but it looks fantastic too. Its main body is sleek black with stunning hints of silver across it; this stylish reel will certainly set you apart on the bank. The features here have barely scratched the surface for what this reel can offer.
