The Shimano SLX MGL 70 Baitcasting reel is a tournament-ready finesse baitcaster that offers precision casting at an excellent value. It is equipped with a shallow and lightweight MGL II Spool, which makes it perfect for light line applications and casting lightweight lures on baitcasting gear. The MGL II Spool has less start-up energy and reduced inertia, resulting in longer casts with less effort. This allows anglers to use baitcasting gear for techniques that were traditionally done with spinning tackle.
The SLX MGL 70 is not just for finesse fishing. It is also suitable for anglers with smaller hands or those who prioritize comfort and reduced weight over line capacity. The MGL II Spool is efficient at casting heavier lures as well, making this compact baitcaster a versatile tool in your arsenal. The reel features a rigid HAGANE body, which eliminates body flexing and provides excellent impact resistance. It also houses Shimano's Cross Carbon Drag system, which allows you to confidently control big bass.
The SLX MGL 70 uses the SVS Infinity centrifugal braking system, which provides consistent spool control and easily adjustable brake force. The brake weights use inner friction against the raceway for precise casting, even with lighter lures. The reel also features the Cross Carbon Drag system, which offers a wider range of drag settings, enhanced durability, and smooth performance.
The Shimano Stable Spool Design (S3D) technology reduces spool vibration and increases smoothness during casting and retrieval. The Super Free Spool design eliminates friction on the spool shaft for longer and smoother casts. The A-RB Bearings on the reel are corrosion-resistant and have shields on both sides to prevent foreign objects from affecting their rotation.
