A multiplier reel is a reel with a spool that is centred between two side plates.
The drag settings of the spool can be either a star-drag or a lever-drag system.
The free rotating spool provides less friction than fixed spool reels thereby offering
greater casting distance and accuracy. Control of the cast is also an advantage of these
reels since the spool first can be slowed and then stopped when the bait hits the water.
The Shimano Cardiff is a super strong reel ideal for saltwater fishing.
It has an aluminum frame, machined aluminum spool and anodized side plates
that houses a 5,8:1 gear ratio. It features the Shimano Super Stopper
anti-reverse system as well as the VBS system (Variable Brake System).
