Product Overview
SHIMANO FX FC Spinning Reel
Propulsion Spool - The most obvious component of the Propulsion Line Management System is the new Propulsion spool lip design. Through tens of thousands of casting tests and computer simulations, it has been determined that this new spool lip design provides longer casting distances than a standard spool lip design, while preventing backlashes and wind knots from forming. It also allows the line to flow off of the spool in smaller loops during the cast, which means less slap on the stripper guide. The Propulsion spool also utilizes a long stroke design to further enhance the casting distance.
