Shimano Talica A 2-Speed Conventional Reel

Shimano's® redesign of the flagship Talica A sets the industry benchmark again for 2-speed lever drag reels with ultra-smooth reeling and powerful drag performance.

The addition of Shimano's innovative Infinity Drive technology leverages a new drag design to increase drag force while reducing side-load pressure to produce up to 40% lighter rotation during tough battles and high-drag situations. The silky-smooth Cross Carbon Drag now has a maximum drag pressure of up to 50 pounds, and combined with a new low-gear ratio and a redesigned handle configuration within some models, Talica A produces unparalleled winding power. The new generation of Talica A features X-Protect technology to boast high-level water resistance in vital areas to improve durability without sacrificing a light gear feel. An included Light-Line Drag Cam provides added versatility with a more gradual drag curve for anglers fishing lighter line systems. This reel is the pinnacle of performance anglers need to battle the toughest fish in the harshest conditions.
