Shimano

The Shimano 26 Nasci C5000XG sets a new standard for mid-range spinning reels, combining the legendary durability of Hagane gearing with the refined smoothness of SilentDrive. Designed as a versatile workhorse for the New Zealand market, this reel bridges the gap between heavy freshwater applications and demanding saltwater inshore duties. It is an ideal choice for targeting Snapper over the weed beds or dropping light mechanical jigs for Kingfish in shallower waters. Hagane Gear – Cold-forged drive gear provides long-lasting smoothness and strength under heavy loads without the need for machining. SilentDrive Technology – Removes microscopic play in the drive train for a quieter, smoother rotation that improves lure feedback. X-Ship Support – Supports the pinion gear on both ends with bearings to maintain precise alignment and increase cranking power. CoreProtect Water Resistance – Protects the roller clutch, body, and line roller from water intrusion without creating heavy rotation. G-Free Body – Shifts the reel’s centre of gravity closer to the rod to reduce fatigue during long casting sessions. Screw-In Handle – Eliminates play between the handle and main gear for direct cranking power when fighting fish. Cross Carbon Drag – Delivers a smooth, consistent drag release to prevent line breakage during sudden runs.
