Shimano Ultegra FC Spinning Reel

The sleeping giant rests no longer. The Ultegra® FC is a feature-packed powerhouse, offering premium performance for all anglers. 

Ruggedly designed from cover to core with a hint of elegance in design, the marriage of Shimano’s® CI4+ composite body and cold-forged Hagene™ Gear provides extreme durability and sensitivity with less weight. MicroModule Gear II and SilentDrive™ technologies improve gear mesh and minimize overall play in construction to provide increased reel performance. Improving upon standard protection against corrosion, Ultegra incorporates Shimano’s X-Protect™ technology and makes it the easy choice for anglers seeking utility in fresh, brackish and saltwater environments. For a final touch of refinement, this Ultegra features a seamless one-piece bail that allows line to travel unimpeded onto the line roller, reducing friction and limiting tangles. 

A reel for all anglers and any situation, the Ultegra FC is loaded with high-quality Shimano features for increased performance.
