Product Details and Uses

Shimano Ultegra XTD 5500

The all new Ultegra 5500 XTD is developed with the carp angler in mind and the new reel will immediatly catch the eye of the avid carp angler because of the improved matt black cosmetics. The extra spool in combination with the 4 line reducers gives the carp angler the opportunity to fish with different types of lines and respective line capacities according to the actual circumstances on the bank. Loosening the high speed drag enables the carp angler to use the new Ultegra 5500 XTD on ‘free spool’ mode while just a very small turn on the high speed drag knobsets a sensitive drag almost instantly, making it suitable to instantly fight the carp that is on the other end of the line. Packed with unique features like X-Ship, Super Slow Oscillation, Aero Wrap 11, and the all new High Speed Drag the carp angler can be confident to challenge the biggest and most sought after carps of all big lakes and rivers. The new “High Speed Drag” is the fastest drag function ever featured on a Shimano reel. Only a very small turn on the drag knob will transit the drag settings from ‘free spool mode’ to the ‘fight mode’.
