Shimano Tiagra 16 2 speed Fishing Reel
Shimano Tiagra 16 fishing reels have re-written the rules of game fishing.
As we all know, one of the fundamental aspects of this sport is that the fish we seek are capable of fighting for hours, repeatedly making long runs that can really heat up a drag.
Fortunately, Shimano Tiagra 16 Hydrothermal Drag System automatically compensates for any heat build-up, thereby maintaining the original drag setting.
What’s more, the Shimano Tiagra 16 prelubricated graphite drag washer is impervious to salt water and will always operate smoothly.
Shimano Tiagra 16 one piece frame is machine-cut from an aluminium tube to a thickness of 7mm (the thickest on the market).Shimano Tiagra 16 has A-RB bearings, heavy-duty stainless steel gears, and a two speed shifting mechanism where the pinion and drive gears are continuously meshed.
The Shimano Tiagra 16 also features a Calibrated Pre Set Drag Knob, which has detents that adjust in approximately half pound increments.
The Shimano Tiagra 16 handle knob on the larger reels is counter weighted so that it always rests in an easy to grab vertical position.
In short, there is simply no better game fishing reel than a Shimano Tiagra 16.
The Shimano Tiagra 16 has Shimano’s time-proven dual-speed gear shifting
mechanism. Built from solid aluminium pipe stock for strength, there is absolutely no flex in a heavy tackle Shimano Tiagra.
