GRAPPLER BB BAITCAST REELS

Level wind interlocking structure ensures smooth line release.

In light jigging, where the use of thin lines is a given, smooth drag performance is essential. However, no matter how high-performance the drag, there are cases where it cannot respond to an instantaneous thrust when the line is at an angle. To address this issue, the Grappler BB employs a high-performance drag + level wind linkage to significantly reduce resistance when releasing the line. The structure that links the spool rotation and level wind makes it possible to always send out the line straight regardless of its position, and by smoothing the start of the line, it prevents the breakage of the thin line. It is possible to take advantage of the advantages of thin lines, such as quickly delivering the jig to the bottom of the sea even during the fall.

Compact body that is easy to grip and highly rigid.

The Grappler BB uses a lightweight and highly rigid aluminum HAGANE body for the frame. The sense of rigidity has increased significantly from the 16 Grappler BB, suppressing the bending and distortion of the reel body. This protects the delicate gear meshing and enables smooth reeling. In addition, the compact body is 1.6 mm lower profile than the 16 Grappler BB, making it easier for anglers with small hands to palm and allowing for stable, powerful winding. Due to its light and compact form, there is little fatigue even when jerking the jig for a long time, and the non-flexing HAGANE body firmly protects the internal structure, so the force put into the handle is transmitted efficiently without loss. You can maintain high quality performance all day long.

The first BB class camera to feature the waterproofing mechanism X-Protect.

The combination of the waterproof wall and special water-repellent grease provides a strong barrier against seawater intrusion into the drive gear shaft bearings, reducing problems caused by salt adhesion to the bearings. This allows for safe use even under harsh conditions, and the initial performance is maintained for a longer period of time.

60mm power handle for a powerful look.

The 60mm power handle is standard equipment, allowing for more stable and powerful reeling even when using heavy jigs or fighting with large bluefish.
