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.
The Ultegra XT is a surfcasting reel with superb front drag
that combines Shimano’s Super Stopper II system
with advanced distance casting design. It features a big aluminum spool,
Shimano Super Stopper II to eliminate back-play in the handle, Power Roller
to reduce line twist and SBL to improve the anti-reverse feature.
It’s low gear ratio (4,3:1) offers superb cranking power when fighting big fish.
