Shimano Sephia BB C3000S Spinning Reel

Building upon previous generations of the Sephia BB Shimano reel family, the new models are built lighter and tougher.

The Sephia BB C3000S reel is perfect for getting the best out of your squid jigs and in turn, making it easier to tempt those squids into grabbing your lure. Equipped with the sturdy Hagane Gear that increases strength, while maintaining smoothness, you’ll be working your jigs all day long, without fatigue.

The combination of Shimano reel technologies such as the G Free Body, Ar-C Spool and One-Piece Bail also make for increased smoothness and comfort casting. Technology X-Ship, brought down from top tier models, offers you more efficient gearing and more power. This in turn gives the angler ultra-light handle rotation, with less effort, even under load.

Micromodule 2: The addition of MicroModule 2 gear technology to the worm shaft idle gear reduces oscillation vibration. This is an incredible breakthrough in design and delivers an outstanding level of smoothness without sacrificing strength or durability. The enhanced smoothness results in greater sensitivity transmitted from your rod, line and lure to your hand.

XProtect: The contact type triplelip structure is introduced to the roller clutch, the pivotal point concerning water resistance. In this structure, the first lip prevents water from entering through the space between the rotor and the body. In addition, the special grease between the second and third lip where it makes contact with the rotor collar located at the upper part of the roller clutch not only resists water from entering but also minimizes friction resistance. Without jeopardizing the ‘silky smooth rotation capacity’, the vital feature of STELLA SW, exceptional water resistance, has been achieved to withstand the crashing and splashing of waves and spray.

By increasing the efficiency of the Sephia BB reels, they’ll be able to perform at their best for longer.

The Shimano Sephia BB C3000S is the perfect reel for catching Squids. What Spinning anglers want from a reel is to be durable, fast, with a solid feeling that inspires trust, strong and sturdy breaks, etc. In Eging all these are not only unnecessary, but in fact contribute the exact opposite to our fishing session. In an Eging reel, we need a slow Gear Ratio and a shorter retrieve per crank ratio, in a few words we need a “slower” reel. Τhe jerks we will perform in Mediterranean waters for Squids, or Cuttlefish are nothing like the great, nervous jerks performed by Japanese anglers. A slower reel will allow our squid jig to act more naturally. Shimano maintained in the Sephia BB a Gear Ratio of 5.3:1 and a retrieve of 73 cm. On top of this, you’ll finally be able to pair them up with the Sephia BB range of rods for an awesome looking combo.
