Precision fit and feature packed with some of the most advanced technology and componentry to deliver exceptional performance, the Shimano Aldebaren BFS Baitcasting Reels are ready to meet the needs of even the most demanding BFS anglers. Its improved MGL Spool III combined with all new FTB Breaking system allows the angler the versatility to cast ultra-light two-gram lures with confidence, with further breaking capability to adjust for heavier BFS lures on the fly. Its FTB Breaking system moves all its components out of the spool and into the side plate of the reel, which in turn reduced the physical spool weight and drops startup inertia needed for spool movement. Its magnetic force that the braking system applies even at its lowest setting was also dramatically reduced, as it positionally was moved further away from the spool and allows for a more meaningful and unrestricted free spool.

A Hagane Metal body sits as the frame for this compact, ergonomic, and comfortable reel, delivering strength and durability for the long haul. Frame flex and distortion is mitigated even when fighting larger fish, providing a great structure to house its internal components for smooth handle turns and pleasurable in hand feel. Micro Module Gearing combined with X-Ship delivers on this exceptional retrieve as they both work in unison to enhance drive/pinion gear efficiency and durability. Carbon matrix drag washers provide a buttery smooth drag for those intense battles on light line, while Exciting Drag Noise delivers an audible drag noise every time that fish makes a run. For the angler looking to score a premium BFS option for their next adventure on the trout stream, bass fishing at the local pond, or even light saltwater use, the Aldebaran BFS is a serious performer with excellent ergonomics, top of the line reel technology and materials to meet the needs of enthusiast level anglers and beyond.

Shimano Technology Found In Shimano Aldebaren BFS Baitcasting Reels:

  • Hagane Body: A reel body with high rigidity, which virtually eliminates body flexing due to it's stiffness and impact resistance. The result? An angler's actions are more efficiently transformed into cranking power. It's efficiency through strength.
  • Micro Module Gear: State-of-the-art gear design makes use of smaller gear teeth and more of them, which results in a more efficient gear train and much smoother retrieve.
  • X-Ship: By supporting the pinion gear on both ends with bearings, the pinion gear remains in precise alignment with the drive gear and stays in the same position under even the heaviest of loads. This eliminates friction between the spool shaft and gear which translates to better casting performance and increased gear durability.
  • MGL III Spool: Further thinning the spool to decrease inertia, without sacrificing durability
  • Silent Tune: By applying slight pressure to the bearing supporting the spool, Silent Tune reduces spool vibration during the cast which results in quieter casting and smoother spool rotation with less play.
  • FTB (Finesse Tune Breaking System): Eliminating the traditional braking method of applying components to the spool itself and instead moving them to the reels sideplate. With a lighter spool, startup inertia was decreased, allowing for even lighter lures to be used.
  • CI4+: An enhanced version of the original CI4 material, this highly technical carbon material is 2.5 times stiffer than the original and is used to create weight savings on the reel.
  • Exciting Drag Sound: Produces an audible drag sound to provide the angler with better feedback when a fish makes a run.
  • S3D Spool: S3D Technology utilizes a balanced and uniform thin wall aluminum spool to significantly reduce spool vibration and increase smoothness when casting and retrieving.
  • S A-RB Bearings: These bearings undergo the same anti-corrosion process as Shimano's A-RB Bearings, with the addition of shields on both sides of the bearings to reduce the possibility of salt, dirt, or other foreign objects inhibiting the bearing's rotation.
  • Super Free Spool: SFS was designed to eliminate friction on the spool shaft during the cast. The pinion gear is supported by a ball bearing, which keeps the gear in perfect alignment with the spool shaft to eliminate friction for longer casts and smoother operation.
