Shimano - Talica 20 BFC (Billfish Concept)

The Talica 20BFC was built to meet the highest level of requirements for anglers fishing the professional billfish tournament scene. Talica 20BFFC provides anglers with an ultra-high-speed retrieve of 60 inches per crank, while also keeping them from breaking fish off with a minimum of 3 pounds of drag at strike. For a competitive advantage, fish this technologically-advanced reel for the competitive angling scene.

Features:

• HAGANE Body - The HAGANE Body is a metal reel body with high rigidity. The body rigidity and impact resistance virtually eliminates body flexing on the reel while fighting fish. The result transforms the angler's actions directly into cranking power, increasing efficiency through strength.
• S-Compact Body - S-Compact Body allows for all-day comfort and improved fishability by making the palming side plate up to 25% smaller than the A-Side plate.
• Cross Carbon Drag - The Cross Carbon Drag material provides a wider range of drag settings compared to traditional drag materials. The Cross Carbon Drag provides the smoothest Shimano drag performance ever while providing anglers with increased durability.
• S A-RB Bearings - S A-RB bearings are put through the same process as Shimano’s A-RB bearings but feature shields on both sides of the bearings. These shields reduce the possibility of salt or sand inhibiting rotation of the bearing.
• HEG - HEG consists of not only the gears, but also the frame, setplate, and handle-side sideplate. First we increased the size of the drive gear and the pinion gear to offer increased leverage and power. By using a one-piece frame that incorporates the setplate and adding a one-piece stamped sideplate, we have eliminated flex in the drive train that causes gears to bind under pressure.
