The Reel
For years and years, anglers have the same experience about
Stradic: a reel that will never let you down. The new
Shimano Stradic FL C3000 HG Spinning Reel is
designed to outperform all of its predecessors. For the first time
in the Stradic class, the reel now features Silent Drive,
Micromodule Gear II and a Long Stroke Spool for better casting
distance. Durability has been further improved with increased gear
strength and X-Protect water resistance. This proposition makes the
Stradic FL the ideal ‘all-round’ spinning reel. It can be used for
any type of freshwater fishing and is very suitable for ways of
fishing where reliability and strength are important. At the same
time this reel is an ideal choice for saltwater inshore
fishing.

The compact Shimano Stradic FL C3000 HG Spinning
Reel feature the same body design as the 2500 size,
however, the reel possesses a larger line capacity making it ideal
to fish both estuary and inshore environments. Weighing 225g, the
Stradic FL C3000 HG matches perfectly with a range of rod ratings
from 2-4kg to 3-6kg. Featuring 6+1 bearings, 6.1:1 gear ratio and
an upgraded Cross Carbon drag system with 9kg of power.

Micro Module II
State-of-the-art, gear tooth surface design and MicroModule Gear
II, are further advanced through Shimano’s exclusive manufacturing
technology. The surfaces of the drive gear and pinion gear have
been analysed and updated from the ground up in pursuit of
perfection.

Silent Drive
From the fundamental, whole body design to the most intricate parts
of the drive train, including the drive gear, wormshaft, wormshaft
pin and wormshaft gear, every piece has been carefully reviewed,
and the smallest clearance gaps and wobbles have been eliminated to
the highest tolerances.

New HAGANE Gear
Hagane Gear has become the cornerstone of many of Shimano’s finest
spinning reels. With Shimano’s own precision cold forging
technology, the new Stradic, has improved gear durability and is
equipped with a newly designed Hagane gear with equivalent strength
to the upper model.

One Piece Bail
The one piece bail wire has no gap for the line to snag on during
normal operation. Made of stainless steel, it reduces friction and
allows the line to get into the line roller quicker.

X-Protect
By combining our water repellent coating and our specially
designed, water channeling labyrinth construction, X-Protect
provides high-level water resistance without sacrificing light gear
and rotor rotation.

Long Stroke Spool
The long stroke spool design improves casting performance when
compared to the previous model due to the improved line flow from
the spool.

The Rod
The favourite Backbone series of rods just got an overhaul. The new
Shimano Backbone Softbait Spin Rod is now stronger
than ever, with a higher quality blank, good quality componentry
and a new slick design that is bound to please.

Graphite Blank
Utilising high quality graphite sheets rolled on custom designed
mandrels, a sensitive yet extremely lightweight performance fishing
blank is created.

Graphite Composite
Rod blanks combining both graphite and fibreglass materials in a
particular manner can create a blank with characteristics that are
best of both worlds, making a rod that has fibreglass robustness
with the power of graphite.
