The Reel: Shimano TLD50A 2 Speed Overhead Game Reel
The Shimano TLD-50A 2-Speed Game Reel is tough. The two speed gear ratios are tough on fish, yet easy on you. High gear ratios make it easy to maintain tension on a charging gamefish. The low gear ratios give you a mechanical advantage when pulling a stubborn fish from the depths. TLD two speed reels have long been the choice for anglers requiring the reliability and benefits of reduced weight from a graphite-framed overhead. Tolerances are tight for use with braided line like Power Pro, the oversize handles on the are the same as the Tiagra overheads, and chrome plated brass handle shanks give them real cranking power.
Changing gears
Changing gears is quick and easy since the dual drive and pinion gears are continuously meshed. The waterproof stainless steel ball bearing graphite drags are smooth and known for its longevity. The A-RB bearings are treated with a special coating that makes them ten times more resistant to corrosion than ordinary stainless steel ball bearings. A stainless steel reel foot anchors the reel firmly in place. A sturdy aluminium die-cast spool holds up to the compressive forces of tightly wound line.
Lightweight
The Shimano Triton Lever Drag TLD-50 2-Speed Game Reel is lightweight. When you’re standing at the rail struggling to get a fish in, you don’t need to fight the weight of the reel as well. Frames are made of XT-7; a lightweight material that is much more resistant to stress and torque than graphite and exhibits greater resistance to wear.
