SHIMANO Ultegra XSE-XTE, left and right hand, Long Cast Fishing Reel, Front Drag 14000 XSE

Description The Ultegra XSE was built on Shimano bestsellers and has really stirred up the mid-price sector in the long-cast reel segment. The elegant housing has been equipped with the most prominent Shimano Long-Cast technologies, so that they far exceed the expectations of anglers from a reel in this price range and are well on the way to becoming bestsellers throughout Europe.Shimano has the Super Slow Oscillation was developed exclusively, which is what prompts many anglers to fully rely on Shimano reels and buy the Ultegra XSE equipped with this technology. Combined with all the other technical features of our long range Superstars, these are hard to ignore.Not only do they cast further, they also allow safer fights, are more robust and also match with pretty much every rod design. For surf anglers or those who prefer brighter colors, the silver XSE design offers a great alternative. Regardless of the design, you can be sure that you have made an excellent choice. The latest Shimano technologies are installed inside the light and at the same time robust Ci4 housing: The HAGANE gear and X-Ship were combined with Infinity Drive and Silent-Drive to guarantee smooth cranking and noise-free running. This first impression should not, however, hide the fact that the Ultegras are workhorses that deliver more power under pressure than is generally necessary.Although the inner workings of the reel represent another masterpiece of engineering, it is primarily the outstanding distance casting properties, make anglers reach for the Ultegra XSE. The Super Slow 5 Oscillation ensures outstanding line lay, which is proven to be responsible for low-friction line pay-off when casting.But there are other long-cast features in the XSE model: Rigid Cast prevents the line from jumping off at the moment, by letting the string fly through the rings. The parallel body design sends the line at the perfect angle towards the rod’s leader. As the line flows over the aluminum AR-C spool’s discharge edge, the line unwinds with almost no friction. The result is an outstanding casting performance, which one would otherwise look for in vain in reels in this price segment.
