Shimano 23 Antares DC MD HG Left

Absolut fantastic

Already at the first throw a fantastic feeling of control over the throw. I am absolutely thrilled. I made the adjustment as follows. 4 modes are under side cover, F, P, N and XB. XB: Monster Drive mode should be chosen for large heavy rigs. XB mode with dial 1-3 are to cast heavy rigs in slim shapes, like metal jigs and vibration baits. XB mode with dial 4-8 are to cast bulky baits the longest. Suitable baits for each dials are, 4:crank baits, 5: large cranks and swim baits, 6:big baits in bluegill shapes, 7:large spinner baits, 8:big crawler baits and Alabama rigs. As the dial number increase, the more brake force will be applied. Brake setting difference between 4 and 5 is large and if you want a setting in the middle, set internal to F mode. When the Baitcaster is set up like this, it allows long casts with great precision and absolute control. I am really absolutely thrilled.

Very good experience. I ordered the Shimano Antares which was on pre-order. Two days later, the reel was sent by DHL. I received my parcel a week after my order. Very satisfied with my order. I would like to thank your staff for their professionalism and thoroughness. I am also very satisfied with the Japanese fishing tackle.

Best reel ever!!!

Fast shipping. By far the best reel I've ever had!!! Thinking about buying another one.
