Shimano Tranx B 300 HG Baitcasting Reel

Description

The Shimano Tranx B 300 HG is a baitcasting reel built for strength and durability, designed originally to handle the American Muskie and suited to anglers chasing big, powerful fish. It pairs a commanding level wind torque with Shimano's Cross Carbon Drag system, giving a minimum of 8kg of stopping power. The reel is built around an aluminium HAGANE Core Solid Body, matched with MicroModule gearing for smoothness under load. Casting control comes from Shimano's SVS MD (MONSTER DRIVE) TUNE braking system, which offers both internal brake adjustment and an external dial. A synchronized level wind mechanism helps prevent braided line from digging into the aluminium S3D spool, and X-Protect technology adds durability against the elements. Despite its power, the Tranx feels compact in the hand. The double-handled 300 standard gear size retrieves 78cm of line per handle turn, while the HG option uses a single power handle with a larger knob and retrieves 103cm per turn. The reel weighs just over 300g. - Model: Shimano Tranx B 300 HG - Gear ratio: 7.6:1 (High Gear) - Handle: single power handle with larger knob - Line retrieve per handle turn: 103cm - Weight: just over 300g - Body: aluminium HAGANE Core Solid Body - Gearing: MicroModule - Drag system: Cross Carbon Drag - Maximum drag: minimum 8kg - Braking system: SVS MD (MONSTER DRIVE) TUNE with internal brake adjustment and external dial - Level wind: synchronized - Spool: aluminium S3D - Water resistance: X-Protect technology - Hand orientation: left-hand (High Gear option)
