Shimano Tyrnos 8
Putting lures back into the spread after a strike, or dropping back baits to fish boiling behind the boat is accomplished quickly with the open top crossbar design of Shimano's Tyrnos saltwater trolling reel. With the reel's open top crossbar design, anglers can easily drop the reel into freespool, and then just as quickly put it back into the strike position û all without ever having to take the rod and reel out of the rod holder. They are constructed with diecast aluminum frames for strength and durability, and graphite sideplates with aluminum braces to reduce weight while maintaining strength. Each features an alternating twin pawl antireverse design, and four A-RB bearings. Additional features include oversized gears for power while maintaining a high-speed 5.0:1 gear ratio, and an extra-long handle shank with an oversized ergonomic rubber power grip. All Tyrnos models have 33 pounds of maximum drag at full, and 16.5 pounds of maximum drag at strike while still maintaining freespool.
