REEL - SHIMANO - CATANA 2500 FE

This Catana is the latest version of a Shimano classic. With an exceptional quality/price ratio, the Catana is a freshwater and saltwater spinning reel that can be used for all types of fishing.

If you are looking for a spinning reel at a very affordable price, the Catana is an option you shouldn't ignore. Ideal for a wide range of fishing, from light and medium sized baits, to match and feeder fishing, the understated look is fantastic and the performance is remarkable for a reel of this price. Pair the Catana with any low to mid priced Shimano rod and you have a great combination that you will be proud to own and use.

In use you will immediately notice the improved balance produced by Shimano's latest G-Free body design. This body design is found on the best Shimano reels and makes fishing easier over a long period of time. The smoothness you'll feel comes from a combination of 3 Shimano stainless steel ball bearings plus a roller bearing, ensuring trouble-free performance, even when battling the largest fish. Like Shimano's top-of-the-line reels, the aluminum spool has an AR-C design, which combined with the Varispeed II spooling system improves casting distance and accuracy, with both mono and braid.

Perhaps the most difficult decision to make is which size of Catana to choose. There are 7 models, including very fast ratio 'HG' versions, ranging from the smallest size 1000 suitable for light 'finesse' fishing up to the largest size 4000 which is perfect for larger baits and heavy fishing. Whatever your choice, the Catana is guaranteed to give you many hours of fishing fun and excitement.
