copy of Shimano Stradic FM 2500 Reel

Introducing the new Stradic FM. The new STRADIC FM is a reel that features the best elements of Japanese technologies, previously reserved exclusively for Shimano's top reel models. This reel offers a range of practical solutions to support anglers in their daily use, while guaranteeing the highest quality of workmanship.

The latest version of this legendary reel has been enhanced with advanced InfinityXross drive technology. Larger gear teeth double the durability, and their increased surface area better transmits power from the crank. Smooth operation at maximum reel power is thanks to InfinityDrive technology. This complements X-SHIP technology, and this combination guarantees ease of winding and high usable power, which proves indispensable when fighting a really large fish. All these perfectly refined drive elements are enclosed in a cold-forged aluminum HAGANE body, which guarantees greater durability and rigidity, translating into better feel for the lure and bites themselves. We have sealed it with X-Protect labyrinth technology, so the Stradic FM bravely withstands rain, strong splashes, and even accidental, momentary immersion in water.

Mention should be made of the new Long Stroke spool with a raised profile, which allows for longer and more accurate casts. The ANTI-TWIST FIN system ensures ideal line tension, which is particularly useful when fishing with delicate, thin monofilaments and braided lines, and light lures. The ideal line lay is thanks to Aero Wrap technology, which allows for even filling of the space between the spool lips without fear of line tangling under heavy loads. The one-piece bail wire and cold-forged one-piece handle give the construction a sense of solid workmanship during cranking and fighting a fish. The advanced DURACROSS DRAG brake is also indispensable during the fight, providing the right power to confidently hook a fish and offering excellent performance and durability for a better fight experience. We dedicate this model especially to those anglers who prioritize maximum power and high quality workmanship, while wanting to enjoy the best reel smoothness.
