Shimano Carp Reels

Shimano Reels for Carp Fishing and Spodding

Shimano is a Japanese manufacturer of fishing tackle. The brand’s carp range includes front drag reels, designs featuring the Baitrunner free spool system, and SPOD models for baiting with a spod rocket.

Ultegra for Distance Fishing

The Ultegra range includes front drag reels, including models designed for long-range casting. In selected versions, slow oscillation ensures even line lay, while the AR-C spool profile reduces resistance as the line leaves the spool. These solutions are used in long-cast carp reels.

This range also includes the Ultegra XTE SPOD, designed for baiting with a spod rocket.

Baitrunner with Independent Free Spool Adjustment

Baitrunner reels allow you to set the resistance of line release during a take independently of the main drag. The range includes smaller designs as well as larger Long Cast versions with spools designed for distance fishing.

Spare reel spools are also available for selected Shimano models. Their compatibility depends on the specific reel series, size and version.
