Shimano Torium Star Drag Conventional

Shimano Torium Star Drag Conventional

A mid-size saltwater conventional built for live baiting, bottom fishing and jigging — the reel you reach for when the fight is about steady pressure rather than finesse.

The HAGANE body is rigid enough that the frame does not flex under load, so cranking power goes into the retrieve instead of into twisting the sideplate. Shimano's S-Compact Body keeps the offside plate small enough to palm, which matters when you are steering a fish away from structure.

• Drag: Cross Carbon — a wider usable range and smoother output than felt washers
• Body: HAGANE, high-rigidity; S-Compact palmable profile
• Bearings: S A-RB, shielded both sides against salt and sand
• Protection: E.I. corrosion treatment on spool and body, beyond anodising
• Use: live bait, bottom fishing, jigging
