Shimano - 23 STRADIC C3000 Spin Reel

The Shimano 23 Stradic C3000M brings the latest evolution of Shimano’s core solid spinning reel lineage to New Zealand anglers, offering a perfect balance of strength and refinement for light tackle applications. Built on the legacy of the Hagane concept, this reel is engineered to handle the rigours of softbaiting for snapper in the Hauraki Gulf or finesse spinning for trout in freshwater rivers.

• InfinityXross Technology – Extends gear life significantly by spreading load across a wider surface area, ensuring smooth operation season after season.
• InfinityDrive – Delivers light and powerful winding even under heavy loads, giving you the upper hand when fighting stubborn kahawai or trevally.
• Anti-Twist Fin – A new line management feature that suppresses line slack and reduces wind knots, perfect for managing light braids.
• Duracross Drag – Combines the smoothness of felt with the durability of carbon, providing consistent drag pressure to tire out big fish without breakage.
• Hagane Gear & Body – Cold-forged drive gear and a high-rigidity metal body eliminate flex, transforming every turn of the handle into direct cranking power.
