A great reliable reel for all round use, great for the young fishermen too! 

Heavily upgraded for 2021, the Shimano Ultegra FC Spinning Reels seek to outclass their competition with features and technologies previously unheard of in their price bracket. These feature-packed reels spare no expense in maximizing performance. From the lightweight and highly rigid CI4+ composite frame, to the cold-forged Hagane Gear with MicroModule II technology, the Ultegra FC is built to perform and keep on going. By borrowing SilentDrive technology from Shimano reels well above its price point, these reels boast an impressive rotational smoothness thanks to improved gear meshing and a reduction in overall play in construction. The implementation of X-Protect technology certifies the Ultegra FC as more than capable of holding up in punishing saltwater environments, making it a worthy choice for freshwater and inshore anglers alike. For final touches of refinement, features such as the Long Stroke Spool and a one-piece bail allow for smooth and efficient line management by reducing friction on casts and eliminating possible tangles during bail operation. The Ultegra FC is a versatile reel for all anglers in a wide variety of fisheries and is by far one of the most feature-rich reels in its class.

Smooth 2 ball bearing drive, Digigear, Twistbuster and ABS spool makes Sweepfire great value for money.

Features:

Aero Wrap II

This two-speed oscillation system layers the line onto the spool in a crisscross pattern that reduces line-to-line friction for longer casts. Aero Wrap reels utilize a patented worm gear design to move the spool upward quickly and downward slowly to wind the line in a precise pattern, reducing friction, and giving smoother, longer casting ability.

CI4+

CI4+ is an advanced version of the original CI4. This highly technical material is 2.5 times stiffer than CI4 and is used to increase weight savings.

Cross Carbon Drag

This drag material provides a wider range of drag settings, along with the smoothest Shimano drag performance ever.

G-Free Body

G-Free Body technology has been developed to shift the reel's center of gravity closer to the rod. By moving the center of gravity closer to the anglers hand position, the G-Free Body helps to reduce fatigue and enhance casting comfort.

Hagane Gear

With amazing strength and durability, the HAGANE Gear is at the very heart of the reel. Shimano, through the application of state-of-the-art technologies, gives you the long-lasting smoothness and pleasure that you feel when you first use a reel, over and over again. No cutting work is applied to the teeth of the drive gear. Instead the entire surface is calculated in minute detail by special 3D design and then formed by Shimano's cold forging technology. The result is assured resilience. It's the fruit of Shimano's inexhaustible pursuit for durability; the strength and power of forged metal continues to represent the fundamental concept of Shimano reels.

Long Stroke Spool

The Long Stroke Spool has longer stroke compared to conventional spool designs. This long stroke specification results in greater casting distance.

Micromodule Gear II

State-of-the-art, gear tooth surface design and MicroModule Gear II, are further advanced through Shimano's exclusive manufacturing technology. The surfaces of the drive gear and pinion gear have been analyzed and updated from the ground up in pursuit of perfection.

One-Piece Bail

One-Piece Bail allows the line to travel unimpeded to the line roller. Its seamless design reduces friction and the change of tangles or cuts to the bail arm

Propulsion Line Management System

The most obvious component of the Propulsion Line Management System is the new Propulsion spool lip design. Through tens of thousands of casting tests and computer simulations it has been determined that this new spool lip design provides longer casting distances than a standard spool lip design while preventing backlashes and wind knots from forming.

S A-RB

These bearings have been through the same process as our A-RB bearings, but feature shields on both sides of the bearings that reduce the possibility of salt or sand inhibiting the bearing's rotation.

Silent Drive

From the fundamental, whole body design to the most intricate parts of the drive train, including the drive gear, wormshaft, wormshaft pin and wormshaft gear, every piece has been carefully reviewed, and the smallest clearance gaps and wobbles have been eliminated to the highest tolerances.

X-Protect

By combining our water repellent coating and our specially designed, water channeling, labyrinth construction, X-Protect provides high-level water resistance without sacrificing light gear and rotor rotation.

X-Ship

X-Ship provides improved gear durability. By supporting the pinion gear on both ends with bearings, the pinion gear maintains precise alignment with the drive gear. This means the gears will stay in the same position under the heaviest loads. The added benefit is that friction between the spool shaft and gear are eliminated. This will enhance the casting performance of the reel with lighter lures, and allow for longer casts.

Daiwa’s BG series has changed the game of what affordable quality looks like in heavy-duty spinning reels. Now, by combining Monocoque Body (MQ) technology with the mass market appeal of BG, BG MQ is born.

Monocoque Body (MQ) is the single biggest revolution in spinning reel design from Daiwa. Totally eliminating the traditional two-piece body construction. MQ reels don’t use any side plates and feature a to- tally screwless body design eliminating potential entry points for water & grime, and significantly enhancing overall body strength and rigidity.

The drag has been improved both in maximum capacity but also in smooth overall performance, drastically reducing the friction of the Carbon ATD drag BG MQ’s drag performance is unmatched by the competition. Casting performance has also been improved with the implementation of Long Cast ABS (LC- ABS) spool design. LC-ABS spool design improves line flow from the spool, resulting in increased casting distances across the board with both heavy & light lines.

BG MQ marks a new era in affordable saltwater spinning reels from Daiwa, with MQ technology now available to the masses. BG MQ is built for the harshest conditions and is set to once again revolutionize the industry. Available from 2500-20000 size, BG MQ now is aligned with 20 SALTIGA sizing.

The Shimano Stella SW represents the pinnacle of innovation for Shimano reel technology and fish-fighting performance.

The new Stella 6000 SW HG spinning reel comes with significant upgrades that deliver Infinite Power. Infinity Drive has been introduced to complement the existing X-Ship system to deliver light and powerful winding. This development removes any contact the inner part of the pinion gear has with the main shaft, as a high-sliding bushing supports it. A special skid coating has been incorporated to further reduce sliding resistance. As a result, handle rotation torque is reduced by 26% when compared to the conventional system, so winding, even under extreme load, is now even easier.

A waterproof rating of IPX8 is achieved through X-Protect and X-shield with the aluminium Hagane Body acting as a rigid and super tough outer shell. A new and improved rotor design has made the reels lighter than the previous Stella SW models. The HG models are designed for both casting and jigging, whereas the PG is geared for jigging and the XG for saltwater casting.
