Shimano Calcutta 400B & 400BSV
The new Shimano Calcutta B series, like its predecessor is constructed from a cold forged aluminium frame, side plates and spool, which create a strong frame with tighter tolerances. The reels also feature the Variable Brake System (VBS) that uses centrifugal brake weights to aid cast control. All reels feature Shimano's A-RB stainless steel ball bearings, Super Stopper to eliminate back play and enable solid hooksets, and a Dartanium drag. These larger versions of the reel also have the benefit of a clicker that increases the tension on freespool and activates a 'fish-on' clicking alarm as well as having 3-position Power Grips that allow for three different hand positions for various fishing techniques. The CT400BSV is designed without a top crossbar or level wind to provide better access to the spool and improved casting ability.

Shimano TLD II (Two Speed Reels)
Models available TLD20 II and TLD30 II
The same drag system on standard TLD reels but heavily engineered for even tougher work. They offer the option of switching between high and low speed retrieve as situations dictate. If you are pumping a 200lb skate through 400ft of water, you’ll need low. A high-flying billfish that changes course to rush the boat demands high. If you want just one reel for home and abroad, make it a TLD 2 Speed.

Shimano Tyrnos II (two speed)
A metal design construction is the base of all Shimano Tyrnos reels, creating stability and durability that ensures that all parts are perfectly aligned for a smooth movement and long lifetime. The ability to be able to swiftly change from high to low gear then back again is a massive advantage in many offshore angling situations, while the advantages of a silky smooth yet powerful lever drag when fighting big fish are too numerous to mention.

Shimano Torsa
Shimano Torsa can be summed up as speed, power, durability and castability. When developing the Torsa Shimano engineers succeeded in designing different types of drag cams, which can be put on the reel to create different drag curves. This system looks set to revolutionise the way we play fish, especially on light, sporting tackle. Eight drag cams are available, all with very different characteristics. The extremely strong frame and spool are created by using diff erent techniques; cold forging and machining of the finest kinds of aluminium, while the High Efficiency Gears are the biggest Shimano have ever designed for fishing tackle. The gears are housed in a low-based gearbox, creating an excellent balance that offers you more control. In size Torsa is a small reel that in reality can cope with really big fish.
The Torsa comes with the LRS (Long Range Special) cam as standard. This cam is the most versatile and will cover all species and styles of fishing in our waters. Cold Forged Aluminium Spool
