Manufacturer's Description: An entry-level model that enhances the performance of "reeling." The Sedona, which has been supported by many anglers for its reliable fishing performance and reasonable price, has been renewed. The core of this evolution is the Silent Drive, which is also featured in the flagship model. It significantly reduces minute gaps, spaces, and vibrations between internal parts, transforming it into a reel with smooth rotation performance and quietness. It has become easier to use for lure fishing, where delicate reeling is important. From the 500 size for light game to the C5000 size targeting larger fish, we a rich lineup that satisfies both beginners and veteran anglers.
Silent Drive, thoroughly refined for a serene sense of unity. The basic design of the entire body and the drive-related components have been reviewed one by one, thoroughly eliminating minute gaps, spaces, and vibrations down to the details. The areas targeted for improvement include the drive gear, worm shaft, worm shaft pin, worm shaft gear, and sliding gear, among others. This has achieved a dimension of smooth rotation performance and quietness.
FEATURE: HAGANE
Shimano's design philosophy utilizes metal processing technology to create truly usable products. Robustness that can withstand harsh conditions. A refined reeling feel that stimulates the senses and a reliable operational feel. Furthermore, lifting power that exceeds expectations. By earnestly pursuing a reel that anglers can truly use, HAGANE gears and HAGANE bodies are created, becoming Shimano's belief. Everything is for the angler.
HAGANE Gear: The goal is an unchanging reeling feel. A solid block of metal is pressed at high pressure and finished with micron-level precision without cutting. This unique technology, known as precision cold forging, produces hard and resilient gears, enabling smooth reeling.
G Free Body: The sliding function parts that allow the spool to move back and forth are placed at the top of the reel body, successfully bringing the center of gravity closer to the hand. This improves the sense of unity with the rod, reducing fatigue from casting and enhancing rod operability.
AR-C Spool: A spool with a special spool ring shape. This creates a line straightening effect, achieving both suppression of line troubles and long-distance casting performance.
