Shimano Aero BB C5000 Reel

Shimano Aero BB C5000 Reel

If you are a match or pleasure angler looking for quality while working with a tight budget, the extremely affordable AERO BB reel is a great option and also includes an anti-reverse facility for playing fish by backwinding.

Available in three sizes (3000, 4000 and 5000) to cover most float fishing situations, and ideal for light to heavy feeder fishing for larger fish like carp and bream, this reel range balances perfectly .

Feeder anglers will also appreciate the easy-to-use round metal line clip, which is perfect for accurate casting. Inside the sleek XT-7 G Free body of the AERO BB is Shimano’s top-rated Hagane Gear and X-Ship system. This combination is renowned for powerful efficient winding and long-lasting reliability, ensuring your reel will maintain its peak performance almost indefinitely.

Other features that stand out are the AR-C Spool crafted from Cold Forged Aluminium for improved casting and line management, plus a handle that screws straight into the main gear for ‘play-free’ directness.

If all of these features aren’t enough to convince you about the quality and unrivaled value of the AERO BB, each model comes with a line reducer to reduce the spool capacity of the reel, making all models perfect for both mono and braided lines.
