SHIMANO NASC3000HGFC NASCI FC SPINNING REEL
Delivering Shimano's renowned performance and reliability at an exceptional value, the Nasci FC Spinning Reels feature upgraded technologies typically found in higher-end models. Designed for versatility, this reel series excels in both freshwater and saltwater applications. When purchasing the Nasci FC from TackleDirect, novice and experienced anglers alike can experience the benefit of Shimano technology at a price that anyone can appreciate.
EXCEPTIONAL FEEL AND PERFORMANCE
The first thing anglers will notice when picking up the Nasci FC is its remarkably light weight and exceptionally smooth operation. Turning the handle is effortless, while the retrieve feels buttery smooth. Despite being surprisingly light, the reel feels extremely well put together. All parts including the handle, bail, spool and frame feel in sync with one another for a tight, low tolerance feel. The rock solid construction instantly inspires confidence in the reel's capabilities.
On the water, the capabilities of the Nasci FC only become more evident. The smooth operation translates into the field even under heavy loads. The rigid body and overall framework of the reel is uncompromising, resisting torque and flex even when fighting large fish under heavy drag pressures. Drag payout is smooth and consistent, without the herky jerky stop and go sticky drag feeling anglers have experienced with inferior equipment. Overall, TackleDirect customers widely agree that the Nasci FC offers performance that is often expected from reels well outside of its price bracket.
TECHNOLOGY GALORE
The Nasci FC improves upon the rock solid foundation set by the previous generation by implementing Shimano technologies previously only found in their flagship level series. A new addition to the feature set is SilentDrive, a technology borrowed from Shimano's top-tier spinning reels. By refining gear tolerances to a micron level, SilentDrive minimizes unwanted noise and vibration, enhancing overall reeling performance. SilentDrive eliminates that creaky, rickety feeling often experienced with lesser quality reels, especially when under heavy stress. All parts of the reel are tuned to the ulimate levels of precision to work together in perfect harmony.
The newest generation of Nasci Spinning Reels retains the standout features that made its predecessor a top choice among anglers. It continues to feature cold-forged HAGANE Gear technology, ensuring flawless meshing of gears for the ultimate smoothness and superior durability when comparted to reels that utilize diecast or machined gears. Additionally, Shimano's X-Ship and CoreProtect technologies return, enhancing winding power and providing reliable protection against the elements.
NASC3000HGFC - INSHORE WORKHORSE
The NASC3000HGFC is the size reel that anglers are typically thinking of when they refer to an "inshore spinning reel". This size is built with the same reel body as the 2500, but features a larger spool capable of holding ample amounts of heavier line. The C3000 is the ideal size for most inshore saltwater fishing applications in shallow to moderate depth environments. Suitable target species include striped bass, flounder, speckled trout, redfish, and snook, among many others. Being similar in size to the 2500, the C3000 would not be oversized for freshwater use for bass, walleye, larger trout, and so on. It would, however, probably hold a bit more line than is necessary. Weighing 8.5 oz., the reel pairs seamlessly with medium-light to medium-heavy rods ranging from 6'6" to 7'6" in length. The impressive stopping power of up to 20 lbs. maximum drag is more than enough to put the brakes on larger stripers or redfish. The medium-fast 6.2:1 gear ratio offers the perfect balance between pick up speed and torque to bring big fish to the boat.
SHIMANO TECHNOLOGY FOUND IN NASC3000HGFC NASCI FC SPINNING REEL
- CoreProtect - Designed to deliver outstanding water resistance without adding extra rotational resistance during retrieval. Key areas like the roller clutch, body, and line roller are specially treated to prevent water intrusion.
- G-Free Body - Shifts the reel's center of gravity closer to the reel seat, ultimately moving the angler's hand position to improve balance, reduce fatigue, and enhance casting performance.
- Hagane Body - A highly rigid reel body that minimizes flex and withstands impacts, ensuring maximum durability. This design enhances cranking power by efficiently converting an angler's movements into smooth, powerful retrieval.
- Hagane Gear - Offers exceptional strength and longevity, utilizing a precise cold-forging process rather than traditional cutting methods. This advanced technology ensures a consistently smooth reel performance, providing anglers with reliability from the first cast to years of use.
- Propulsion Line Management System - A uniquely engineered spool lip design, tested extensively through thousands of casting trials and computer simulations, ensures longer casting distances while minimizing backlashes and wind knots.
- SilentDrive - A series of precise internal micro-adjustments and refinements that increase gear tolerance to a micron level to eliminate gaps, shaking, noise from moving components. The result is an exceptionally low tolerance feel with unparalleled smooth rotation.
- X-Ship - By supporting the pinion gear with bearings on both ends, it maintains perfect alignment with the drive gear, even under heavy loads. This design minimizes friction between the spool shaft and gear, resulting in smoother casting and enhanced gear longevity.
