Offering great value with substantial performance, the Shimano SLX A/Clarus E Casting Combos are the ideal choice for anglers looking to get out on the water without breaking the bank. The SLX A casting reel features a metal Hagane body, standing out for its robust strength, impact resistance, and rigid housing for the reels internal mechanisms. At a 150 size this reel is easy to palm, with smooth contours that are easy to hold on for all day use. Shimano incorporated their SVS Infinity technology to assist with the reels cast control, a well-respected and proven system that allows anglers to adjust on the fly for changing weather conditions and different lures. Its adjustability allows users to dial in and mitigate potential backlashes, without sacrificing casting distance.
The Clarus E casting rod is constructed of a high modulus blank, with crisp well-balanced performance. The blank out fishes anything in its price range, with the strength and power for seasons of hard use to come. Fitted to the length of the rod are titanium oxide guides, maximizing casting distance by mitigating potential line friction. The titanium oxide coating improves it’s the guides resistance to the elements and improves the overall longevity. Shimano incorporated their G Alpha Grip Surface Technology at the foregrip and rear grip of the rod, delivering superb comfort and control in hand. For the angler wanting a great entry way into a baitcasting setup or simply looking for the next setup to fill their arsenal, the combination of both the Shimano SLX A and Clarus E makes for a truly superb setup, ready to improve your game on the water!
Shimano Technology Found in Shimano SLX A 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.
- 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.
- Shimano Stable Spool Design (S3D) - S3D Technology utilizes a balanced and uniform thin wall aluminum spool to significantly reduce spool vibration and increase smoothness when casting and retrieving.
- SVS Infinity - Provides easy to manage, consistent spool control and brake force that is easily adjusted as conditions change. Brake weights use inner friction against the raceway during the cast for precision casting even when using lighter lures. The external adjustment knob provides quick, precise adjustments on the fly for when conditions or baits change.
- SilentTune - – 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.
Shimano Technology Found in Shimano Clarus E Casting Rods:
- G Alpha and EVA Grip: Offering a best-in-class, anti-slip grip that gives an angler superior control of their fishing rod. The grip is lightweight and durable, perfect for day-in and day-out use.
