Every angler has faced line trouble at some point. Shimano's "ANTI-TWIST FIN" tackles this issue by suppressing line slack, reducing the chances of the line dropping out of the lower part of the spool or wrapping around the spool while twisted.
Innovative Fin Design
Fishing can be full of unexpected challenges, especially when it comes to line issues. From the line slipping off the spool to becoming slack when wound, these problems can frequently disrupt your fishing experience and impact your catch. But with the right gear, you can tackle these obstacles head-on and enjoy a smoother, more successful fishing adventure
The ANTI-TWIST FIN was designed to tackle these issues head-on. By reducing line troubles, it minimises stress during fishing and ensures a more comfortable and enjoyable experience
Stress-free fishing with reduced line problems
The ANTI-TWIST FIN mechanism features a flexible plastic fin placed near the line roller section. This innovative fin actively suppresses line slack, ensuring the line stays securely on the spool and preventing frustrating tangles. With this mechanism, you can enjoy smoother, hassle-free fishing
It also prevents the line from being wound onto the spool while twisted, ensuring it winds up tightly under tension. This feature is especially useful for fishing techniques prone to line slack such as squid jigging.
It prevents the line from getting caught inside the spool or winding abnormally, a common frustration for anglers using spinning reels. With this feature, fishing becomes much more stress-free and enjoyable, allowing you to focus on the thrill of the catch

Our goal, effortless reeling.
Shimano's reel design concept aims for “eternally smooth reeling.” The result is HAGANE. Shimano honed its proprietary metal processing technologies with precision cold-forging technology and refined them over many years to develop reels that only Shimano could deliver.
Reduced line release resistance for an optimised casting experience.
The line is meticulously wound around the spool, ensuring a tight and organized configuration that greatly minimizes line release resistance. This refinement enhances the casting experience, enables smooth line retrieval, and heightens sensitivity during the fall, allowing for more precise control and responsiveness.
Experience an exceptional gear system designed for high performance and unwavering durability.
INFINITYXROSS distributes the load across a wider area of the gear tooth surface, resulting in exceptional durability.
Seize control with powerful reeling.
When the rod bends powerfully and you grip the handle knob to stop the target's escape, the reel's design ensures smooth power transfer, giving you the upper hand in the fight.
Shimano's INFINITYDRIVE eliminates those frustrating moments, ensuring powerful reeling even under high load. With this technology, you'll be able to land big fish that once seemed impossible to catch.
