Shimano Talica 25 2-Speed Reels
The Shimano Talica breaks all the molds and preconceptions when it comes to small lever drag reels. The Shimano Talica catches big fish like its larger lever drag brothers and casts baits like its star drag cousins but in a small powerful 2-speed package. Fill the Talica with Power Pro and a short Fluorocarbon top shot and you could not even dream of the size fish you can catch on such a small powerful reel. Utilizing technology for their HEG (High Efficiency Gearing) Star Drag Reels, Shimano created the the ultimate 2-Speed: one with fast line pickup compared to traditional 2-speeds but with unbelievable crank power in either gear ratio. So when you drop it into low on a circling Tuna at deep color, instead of gaining a couple inches, you are gaining around 2 feet. Add to all those features the ability to cast a bait to where the fish are feeding, you have the ultimate fish catching machine - The Shimano Talica.
