Product information "Shimano Tranx 301 Baitcasting Reel"
The Shimano Tranx 301 is a fantastic baitcasting reel for heavy duty applications. Whether with big-baits on pike or speed jigging on strong saltwater predators - the Tranx is robust, powerful and works extremely reliable!
The internal components are enclosed in the high-quality and lightweight Hagane reel body, which is characterized by immense resistance, stability and torsional rigidity. In this high-quality reel body, the X-Ship gear is installed. Developed for immense power transmission and robustness, the gear also convinces with an extremely smooth running. The Coreprotect concept provides the reel with water resistance without increasing the rotational resistance.
The VBS centrifugal brake ensures full control during the cast and allows precise and individual settings. This allows you to choose the perfect setting for your personal needs and lure weights used in any wind and weather.
The Super Free Spool System (SF) ensures high casting distances by avoiding a typical problem of conventional baitcasting reels. When the clutch bar is actuated, friction can occur between the pinion gear and the spool shaft. With SF technology, the Pinion Gear is supported on a ball bearing, keeping all components in perfect alignment and eliminating friction. Of course, the spool also plays a big role in achieving respectable casting distances. S3D technology even prevents vibration of the thin-walled and lightweight aluminum spool, which further increases casting distance and also makes cranking in smoother.
The Shimano Tranx 301 is the ultimate reel for medium to heavy pike fishing. With it, you can easily fish big-baits effectively and without fatigue. Due to its immense robustness and the Coreprotect concept, it is suitable for almost all conditions and is also popular in saltwater for speed jigging.
