I fish in the ocean, where water is dark blue. Do u =l recommend me green glass for sunglasses, or I should go with blue. Thank u this helped me a lot!
Got some questions Plastic drag clip? How is the handle, can u spin in backwards to fold it in? Like the power aero? Is this a carp reel or more for seawater? The instant drag u said i still heard the slip when u made it tight stand.. So how much winding to make it really tight ?
Hi I have just bought this model but the bail arm does not clip over when you turn the the handle.The dealer said this is normal on higher end reels is this correct?
That is correct, they are designed to be flipped over manually so that they can remove the slack needed in the rotor to trip the bail. This gives you a much better instant anti reverse for improved hook sets and feel
Are you sure it has X Protect ??… I can't find this information on the box or on the official Shimano website! Where did you get this information from?
I believe only two models were redone... The XSE and the Big Pit. If that's the case it would be Infinity Drive, Silent Drive and Slow 5 Oscillation would be the biggest upgrades. Not sure about the other models because I only get a chance to deal with North American models.
Biggest differences would be the new Infinity Drive, Slow 5 Oscillation and Silent Drive between the newest version of XSE and the previous models. The new Big Pit should have these new upgrades as well
Hi Nic,Merry Chiistmas!I am Jack from Gomexus (a custom reel parts company),We are going to design a reel handle for ultegra 14000series,would you mind drop us some suggestions for the knob and handle that we should make?We would like to send you one once we finished,Thanks in advance 😊
Obviously old comment but for anyone else wondering. Yes the XSD and thr XSE are the same reel the E is silver and the D is black. For whatever reason, shimano thought a silver reel would sell better in America
