Shimano Talica 8 Jigging Reel

Speed. Power. Comfort

The Shimano Talica 8 Jigging Reel is built on
solid engineering principles that puts this reel in a league of its
own. This series offers a high-speed retrieve that you can use for
jigging up brutal Kingfish from offshore structure where speed can
make all the difference or use it to target Marlin and Tuna
trolling lures or pitching out a bait to a fired up pelagic.

Each model has a one-piece cold forged (for extreme strength) and
machined Aluminium frame, this is treated with a proprietary
surface process for cutting-edge corrosion protection. Shimano then
added a lightweight cold forged aluminium spool, oversized HEG
(High Efficiency Gearing) gears, waterproof carbon drag system and
6 S-ARB bearings for super slick operation.The Talica has been
constructed to withstand massive drag pressures and the carbon drag
system has been waterproofed (when engaged) to handle salt water
spray.And what’s more the High Efficiency Gearing means that it has
the power to fight fish well above its weight class.

Metal Series
Metal frames not only keep moving parts in precise alignment, they
also feature the use of the latest anodising, plating and painting
techniques for a beautiful and durable finish.

Cold Forged Aluminium
The Talica’s spool provides increased strength and durability over
diecast aluminium or graphite spools.

Shielded Anti-rust Bearings
Anti-rust Bearings are made of stainless steel that has been
through the A-RB process. At least 10 times more
corrosion-resistant than standard stainless steel ball bearings. It
also features shields on both sides of the bearing to reduce the
possibility salt or sand and allow the bearings to spin faster and
longer.
