Premium JDM Baitcasting Reel with Digital Control Braking

Overview

The Shimano 24 Metanium DC 70XG is a premium, lightweight baitcasting reel designed for anglers who demand smooth performance, precise casting control, and versatility across a wide range of bass-fishing techniques.

With an 8.1:1 gear ratio and 86cm line retrieve per crank, this high-speed reel is excellent for quickly picking up slack line, maintaining contact with your lure, and taking control immediately after a strike.

At just 180g, the Metanium DC provides an excellent balance of lightweight handling and performance. The Digital Control (DC) braking system helps provide consistent casting control and makes this reel an excellent choice for both experienced baitcasting anglers and those looking for additional casting control.

This reel is in perfect overall condition, with only a few tiny cosmetic scratches. It has been rarely used and operates very smoothly.
