Shimano TIAGURA 16 for Big Game Baitcasting Reel

By A Mystery Man Writer

Tiagra dominates the fight against large fish. In fights with huge fish, drag power reduction due to frictional heat cannot be avoided. Tiagra is equipped with a heat-sensitive oil pressure compensation drag mechanism that compensates for the decrease in drag power by utilizing frictional heat in reverse. In addition to high drag performance, the two-speed gear system (high and low) allows you to fight against huge fish more advantageously.

Our specially treated stainless steel ball bearings are at least 10 times more corrosion resistant than standard stainless steel ball bearings. These spools are made from cold forged aluminum then machined to provide an extremely dense, solid construction that can withstand the heavy drag pressures the reels can apply. The sideplate screws are chrome plated to prevent corrosion. Uses 2 sets of gears that are always engaged for quick, easy gear ratio changes even under load.
