Shimano Cardiff XR Spinning Reel

Description

The Shimano Cardiff XR C2000S HG is a spinning reel built for finesse work with ultra-thin lines, finished in a deep green pearlescent coat with a classic round cork handle grip. It is designed to balance the lightest finesse rods and to give fingertip control when fishing small spoons and spinners in mountain streams or specialised trout ponds. The reel is built around a low-inertia philosophy, so it starts and stops instantly and transmits what is happening at the lure back through the line. - MGL Rotor: an ultra-lightweight magnesium rotor gives very low start-up inertia, so you can start and stop the lure with micro-adjustments. - Micro Module II and Silent Drive: these technologies remove mechanical noise and vibration for silky-smooth rotation, letting you feel subtle ticks on the line or slight changes in water resistance around the lure. - HAGANE Gear and X-SHIP: a cold-forged HAGANE gear and X-SHIP support system keep the reel solid and efficient under the pressure of a hard-fighting native trout. - Specialised Felt Washer Drag: calibrated for light-line work, with an ultra-fine adjustment range and a smooth, consistent release of line when playing large fish on fragile gear, particularly near the net. - Long Stroke Spool: improves casting distance and line lay so even the lightest lures can be cast accurately to wary fish in clear water. - C2000S HG Profile: the "C" denotes a compact body for weight savings, and the "S" a shallow spool suited to thin lines without the need for backing. - CI4+ G-FREE Body: Shimano's carbon-reinforced body material keeps weight low, and the G-FREE design shifts the reel's centre of gravity closer to the rod for a seamless feel in the hand. - X-Protect: high-level water resistance for the internal mechanisms without adding rotational friction, protecting the reel from splashes in mountain streams. - Model: Cardiff XR C2000S HG (CDFXRC2000SHG) - Weight: 155g - Gear Ratio: 6.1:1 - Max Drag: 3.0 kg (7 lbs) - Bearings: 9 + 1 (S A-RB) - Line Retrieve Per Crank: 82 cm (32 inches) - PE Line Capacity: #0.6-150m, #0.8-110m, #1-80m - Nylon Capacity (mm-m): 0.14-145, 0.16-105, 0.18-80 - Body Material: CI4+ - Handle Knob: Round Classic Cork
