REELS

Boasting the same one-piece, cold-forged aircraft-grade aluminium frame and lightweight spool with E.I. surface treatment, as well as an oversized HEG gearing system, the Talica is a compact reel with castability, fast line pick up, durability, drag consistency and remarkable cranking power. The single speed Talica is available in four sizes - 8, 10, 12 and 16.

The Shimano Talica 20 BFC Overhead Reel is engineered for serious tournament billfish anglers who demand performance, precision, and reliability. Designed from the ground up as part of Shimano’s elite Billfish Concept range, this high-speed lever drag reel delivers an incredible 60 inches of line retrieve per crank, making it ideal for high-speed pitch baiting and switching when seconds count.

The Talica 20 BFC pairs ultra-smooth drag performance with a lightweight, highly rigid Hagane body, reducing flex and improving cranking efficiency during the heat of battle. A minimum of just 3lb of drag at strike prevents accidental break-offs during aggressive runs, giving anglers maximum control while fighting bluewater predators like sailfish and marlin.

Its compact frame, 2-speed gearing, and ergonomic handle design make it comfortable for extended use, whether you're fishing solo or on the tournament circuit. Backed by Shimano’s cutting-edge technology, the Talica 20 BFC is the pinnacle of high-performance game reels.

THE TALICA IS A CASTABLE HIGH-SPEED LEVER DRAG THAT HAS BECOME A FAVOURITE OF SPORTFISHERS DUE TO ITS COMPACT SIZE AND HIGH LINE CAPACITY.
A one-piece cold forged and machined aluminium frame has cutting-edge corrosion protection. Shimano then added a light-weight cold forged aluminium spool, a waterproof Cross Carbon drag system and six S A-RB bearings for super slick operation. The use of HEG in both high and low speeds sets Talica apart from any other reel, providing incredible cranking power.

The Ocea Jigger F Custom is everything the standard ocea jigger reels are and more. With the main feature being the addition of a fall lever (hence the 'F'), which allows for quick and precise drag adjustments to be made for any jig you use, ultimately allowing you to slow down the fall rate of heavier lures to exactly the speed you want. It's a high quality, specialist slow pitch jigging reel packed with features that ensure super-smooth, effortless winding even under load.

The Newly designed handle on the Ocea Jigger provides a firm grip and the ability to increase power without losing hold. The combination of the Hagane body and S-Compact body results in an immensely strong yet lightweight jigging reel. Thanks to the eight SA-RB ball bearings and X-Protect, it is also highly saltwater resistant and durable.

Features:

• Micro Module Gearing: The addition of MicroModule gear technology to the worm shaft idle gear reduces oscillation vibration. This is an incredible breakthrough in design and delivers an outstanding level smoothness without sacrificing strength or durability. The enhanced smoothness results in greater sensitivity transmitted from your rod, line and lure to your hand.
• Infinity Drive: Developed to provide more powerful and light winding through bearings supporting the pinion gear. By doing so the rotational resistance of the reel has been decreased up to 60%.
• X Protect: Without jeopardising the ‘silky smooth rotation capacity’, the vital feature of Ocea Jigger, exceptional water resistance, has been achieved to withstand the crashing and splashing of waves and spray.
• Shielded Anti-rust Bearings: Shimano S A-RB bearings are high corrosion resistant ARB ball bearings with an extra shield for improved protection against sand, salt or dust.
• EI Surface Treatment: E.I. Surface treatment doubles the durability of the spool surface and gives less wear out by eliminating oxidation.
• Hagane Body: The Hagane Body is produced from high rigidity aluminium or magnesium. This creates stiffness and impact resistance, while at the same time eliminating flexing of the body. The result is a rock solid housing and support for the moving internal gearing and greater efficiency throughout the reel.
• S-Compact Body: Compact body design to reduce weight and allow for better grip and leverage while fighting a fish.
• Exciting Drag Sound: This audible and highly exciting sound, which occurs when a fish runs, is a modern alternative to the more traditional mechanical clicker or ratchet.
• Fall Lever: A thumb-able fall lever allows super easy and precise drag adjustments to get the perfect fall speed for any jig you use.
• Star Drag
• Saltwater Ready
• Extra High Crank Power Rating
