Shimano Corvalus Cvl400 Baitcast Star Drag Fishing Reel- 8Kg

The Shimano Corvalus range of reels, are suited to everything from slow jigging and soft baiting for snapper, blue cod, kahawai and john dory, to inshore trolling for kingfish and offshore for skipjack and albacore tuna.

Each has a die-cast aluminium frame, aluminium side plates and spool, three A-RB bearings and one stainless steel roller bearing, a non-disengaging level wind system on the 400, Super Stopper and Assist Stopper, and a quick take-down system for easy maintenance.

Features:

• One Piece Die Cast Aluminium Frame.
• Aluminium Spool.
• VBS (Variable Brake System): VBS uses centrifugal force rather than magnets to aid in controlling the cast. With individual brake weight you can set your reel for different cast settings and aslo allow for maximum performance when casting long distances
• A-RB (Anti rust Bearings): Anti-Rust Bearings. These stainless steel ball bearings have undergone a unique manufacturing process so they will last up to ten times longer that standard stainless steel ball bearings when used in salt water environments.
• Super Stopper: Super Stopper anti-reverse uses a one-way stainless steel roller bearing that eliminates back-play in the handle. This provides the angler with instant hook-setting power.
• Assist Stopper: Assist Stopper is backup anti-reverse system, which consists of the traditional pawl and ratchet.
• Quickfire II: The Quickfire II thumb bar gives you the ablilty to control both the spool and the clutch with your thumb alone. The natural hand position puts your thumb right on the Quickfire II clutch bar. Press the bar to disengage the spool for unparalled casting, then turn the crank to reengage gearing.
