New in Box Shimano Talica 50II 2-Speed Conventional reel.
Designed primarily for West Coat anglers who live to battle big, cow-sized tuna from the rail, the Talica 50II is compact for its capabilities, but has plenty of power and free-spool with a maximum drag of 60 pounds.
With full free-spool, anglers can also use the Talica 50II as a casting reel. “It's an extremely capable casting reel,” Iida said, “due to features such as forged aluminum lightweight spool with support bearings. At Shimano, we completely understand long-range fishing there's nothing better than a field-test trip aboard one of the long-range boats like the Royal Polaris or Royal Star heading out of San Diego and we had all that in mind in designing the Talica 50II.”
