Shimano Thunnus CI4 Spin Reel

Built tough for tough saltwater species, the Thunnus CI4+ range consists of four sizes from 4000 to 12000, which covers every inshore to medium offshore application imaginable. After freespooling a bait down to where the target species lurks, the BaitRunner function is engaged. The spool begins to spin as a fish is fooled into accepting the bait under near zero tension; you turn the handle, engage the main drag and hooked up!

The HAGANE Drive Gear is produced by Shimanos coldforging technology, without the need for additional machining. This delivers a longlasting smoothness, strength, lightness and power at the very heart of the reel. Traditional diecast, machined gears are less durable under heavy loads.

Shimano ARC Spool is a patented spool design with an angled spool lip. This design enables the line to leave the spool with less friction and in smaller coils resulting in longer more accurate casts. ARC spools are proven to reduce backlash and wind knots when using braid.

CI4+ is an advanced version of the original CI4. This highly technical material is 2.5 times stiffer than CI4 and is used on many highend Shimano reels to increase weight savings. Use of CI4+ for the body and rotor also delivers remarkable stiffness for better reel efficiency.

The onepiece bail wire has no gap for line to snag on during normal operation. Made of Stainless Steel, it reduces friction and allows the line to get onto the line roller quicker.

Shimano S ARB bearings are high corrosion resistant ARB ball bearings with an extra shield for improved protection against sand, salt or dust.
