Description

• The Aldebaran BFS is Shimano’s most advanced ultra finesse baitcasting reel. Finesse anglers take note. This technically brilliant, lightweight reel is specifically designed for fishing with the lightest lures. Even lures as light as 1 gram are no problem.If you are a lightweight lure specialist who enjoys using finesse type lures or rigs, the Aldebaran BFS will undoubtedly please you. Even anglers who previously only used spinning reels for ultra finesse fishing for species like bass or trout will immediately appreciate the advantages of this model. A single swift motion of the rod tip will launch the lightest lure in an almost frictionless flight. When conditions change, or you opt for a lure of a different weight, a quick adjustment of the brake knob ensures you always have the perfect setting.The remarkable lightweight casting performance of the Aldebaran BFS is delivered by the FTB system (Finesse Tune Breaking). This is a combination of a centrifugal brake with magnets that harmoniously work together with the ultra-light MGL III spool to control the braking. The addition of the S3D spool design and SilentTune technology further enhance the performance. Adjusted to the lowest setting with the external dial, the casting friction is minimized. The Aldebaran BFS offers more than just remarkable casting performance. Inside the heart of the reel, the Micromodule Gear and X-SHIP deliver smooth, powerful, and efficient cranking power. Additionally, the overall weight is reduced using a HAGANE Body composed of magnesium and Ci4+.BFS experts who prefer faster reels will appreciate the options of 7.8:1 (HG) or 8.9:1 (XG) gear ratios. Both models are equipped with Shimano’s Exciting Drag Sound to provide even more enjoyment during the fight through the use of an audible clicker.
