Shimano SLX DC

The SLX DC retains all of the qualities of the original SLX models and enhances it with SHIMANO’s i-DC4 Digital Control. This brilliant technology can be set in one of 4 modes to maximise your casting performance, whilst at the same time reducing over-runs. Available in two sizes, the 150/151 sizes offer great versatility, whilst the smaller 70/71 size featuring the MGL III spool is perfect for casting lighter weight lures. Fitted seamlessly into the compact body of the SLX DC is Shimano’s exclusive i-DC4 Digital Control. The modes include Mode 1 designed to achieve maximum distance (least amount of magnetic braking). Mode 2 designed specifically for managing braided line. Mode 3 for fluorocarbon or stiffer lines. Mode 4 offers maximum control (largest amount of magnetic braking) for applications like skipping. Once set, the onboard microcomputer, which is self-powered by generating its own electricity, does all of the work, leaving you to take aim and cast. Like all SLX models, the aluminium HAGANE Body creates the perfect frame for the precision gearing, and the aluminum S3D spool reduces vibration on the cast and when retrieving. On the smaller 70/71 spool size, MGL III spool is used in order to improve the trajectory and casting distance with smaller lures. The SLX DC is hard to beat when you are looking for a reel with trouble-free digital casting control. Combining these technological casting advantages at this interesting price-point makes the SLX DC an unbeatable choice for any lure angler.- Advanced i-DC4 digital control for trouble-free casting- Lightweight aluminum HAGANE Body for strength- S3D Spool for reduced vibration when casting and retrieving and MGL III Spool on 70/71 sizes for improved lightweight casting performance- Easy to adjust star drag for confident fish-playing- Available in two sizes 70/71 and 150/151 with a wide variety of gear ratios
