The Reel
The Shimano Stradic has been a solid performer in the New Zealand
market for many years now and this model upgrade is no different.
Shimano’s engineers have done it again by creating a more
lightweight, compact yet powerful mid-priced spinning reel.

The new Shimano Stradic CI4+ 2500 HG FB Spinning
Reel features the newly-developed Magnumlite Rotor, giving
a lighter feel – making this reel simply a delight to use, with
better balance in the hand. It also features Shimano’s X-Ship
technology, which not only makes the fishing experience much more
enjoyable with ultra-smooth retrieves, but also gives you more
grunt when cranking in those larger saltwater species.

Every part has been designed to improve your experience on the
water. The sleek G-Free body provides a better weight balance to
reduce fatigue. Plus, the presence of Coreprotect on the roller
clutch, the drag, the body and the line roller, indicate that this
reel is going to be perfectly at home in the world’s harshest
environment — saltwater. Whether you’re casting light Rapala lures
to Trout, softbaiting the wash or micro-jigging for Snapper, the
Shimano Stradic CI4+ 2500 HG FB Spinning Reel eats
it up!

Magnumlite Rotor
The newly-developed Magnumlite Rotor is made out of new CI4
material that’s lighter and stronger than the 1st generation CI4 –
providing you with effortless handle rotation by reducing the
weight dramatically.

Hagane Gear
The new Shimano Stradic CI4+ 2500 HG FB Spinning
Reel is enhanced by its Hagane Gears, complementing the G
Free Body design for better all-around performance. With amazing
strength and durability, the Hagane gear is at the very heart of
this reel – giving long-lasting smoothness and feel. Its entire
surface is calculated in minute detail by 3D and formed by
Shimano’s cold forging technology.

X-Ship
Together with the Hagane cold-forged drive gear, Shimano combined
X-Ship technology which results in a smooth, powerful and durable
reel. By supporting the pinion gear on both ends with bearings, the
pinion gear maintains precise alignment with the drive gear. This
means that the gears will stay in 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.

The Rod
Designed to meet the demands of Kiwi anglers, the Shimano
Salty Advance Tairaba B69MH-S Baitcaster Rod utilises
Shimano’s proprietary TAFTEC technology in the blank, giving it
excellent sensitivity and feel, whist also being robust. It
features Fuji stainless K guides and SiC tip.

TAFTEC
Shimano TAFTEC tips utilise a pre-stretched T-3500 directional yarn
fibre with low resin saturation. This directional alignment of the
fibres results in much less damage during the grinding process and
results in a spineless construction which tests have shown to be
much stronger, lower in weight, faster in action and more
sensitive. TAFTEC tips are used where sensitivity is an important
requirement of the rod.

Softube Top
Shimano Softube Top provides the sensitivity of an ultra-fine solid
carbon tip with the lightness of a hollow construction. Softube Top
construction can be found on models where sensitivity and finesse
are both important requirements. The smooth, seamless action of
Softube Top offers the angler an unrivalled experience for bite
detection and fish-playing performance.
