A fixed spool reel is a reel with a non-rotating spool, often used for spin fishing.
When casting, the rotating bail is lifted which then allows the line to run off the spool.
The bail automatically returns to its original position when retrieving the line.
Drag settings may be adjusted at the front, centre or rear by a finger screw.
Shimano's High Efficiency Gears and a combination of ball and roller bearings
gives this series of reels an incredible cranking power (4.3:1 ratio).
They furthermore feature Shimano's Super Stopper II, Power Roller and SBL systems,
to insure maximum performance from these medium priced reels.
