Shimano SLX DC 150 HG Backbone ColtSniper Micro Jigging Combo 6ft 3in 6-15lb 1pc

Overpower your opponents in the water

Ideal for slow and micro jigging, the Shimano SLX DC 150 HG Backbone ColtSniper Micro Jigging Combo provides smooth and tangle-free casts, hassle-free retrieves, rugged construction, comfortable grip and best of all; the new SLX DC 150HG reel comes with Shimano's new Digital Control braking system that monitors spool speed 1000 times every second and apply the perfect amount of brake to prevent backlash and maximise distance.

The Reel
Built on the same platform as the popular SLX baitcasting reel with the addition of Shimano's unique I-DC4 Digital Control Braking Technology, the new Shimano SLX DC 150 HG Baitcaster Reel takes your casting performance to a whole new level. The Shimano Digital Control Braking System utilises a microcomputer to monitor spool speed 1000 times every second and apply the perfect backlash and maximise distance. This means less thumbing and trouble-free casting in all conditions.

Inside the SLX DC's Hagane Body, brass gearing delivers reliable cranking power and three SUS bearings and one bearing means everything turns smoothly. The reel incorporates a compact design, with the same line capacity as Shimano's standard 150 sized reels. Featuring a gear ratio of 8.2:1 means that the slow and methodical fisho who likes a bit of speed is well covered. On top of this, the 5kg mas drag settings provide amazing stopping power should it be needed.

I-DC4 Digital Control Braking Technology
Shimano's new Digital Control braking system utilises a microcomputer to monitor spool speed 1000 times every second and apply the perfect amount of brake to prevent backlash and maximise distance.

VBS
VBS uses centrifugal force rather than magnets to aid in controlling the cast. The individual brake weights, when turned on, are forced outward at the beginning of the cast when backlashes most often occur, causing friction that reduces the speed of the spool. Once the spool speed begins to slow, the pressure lessens, allowing the spool to continue spinning. The result is a much more consistent spool speed that is easier t manage and takes advantage of the reel's maximum casting distance.

HAGANE Body
HAGANE Body means this reel has a high rigidity and zero twist. The body stiffness and impact resistance virtually eliminates body flexing. The result transforms the anglers actions directly into cranking power. It's efficiency through strength.

The Rod
The Shimano Backbone ColtSniper Overhead Micro Jig Rod continues Shimano's dedication to producing superb quality rods at a genuinely reasonable price. It's a heavy duty rod built on Carbon blanks, finished with top quality SEA guides and bindings. Solid and reliable.
