Everything about the Shimano® Aldebaran MGL Low-Profile Baitcast Reel is designed to result in virtually effortless long-distance casting, liquid-smooth retrieves, and ultimate control of both your lure and the fish. This is Shimano's lightest baitcaster, designed especially for finesse presentations – 4.8 ounces of sweet performance at every level, made even better with the addition of the advanced MagnumLite™ spool. Its Hagane™ Concept CI4+ carbon body is light, strong, and rigid; supported by X-Ship gearing technology, it delivers tight alignment and perfect gear mesh even under heavy load. The shallow MagnumLite spool features Shimano Stable Spool Design (S3D) backed by Silent Tune spool bearing stabilization and Super Free Spool friction reduction, resulting in unhindered line release at any speed; whether casting long or pitching to nearby structure, you'll be amazed at this reel's smooth and quiet performance. The Aldebaran MGL also features a double-shielded, 9+1 S-ARB® ball bearing system; SVS Infinity brake system with external adjustment plus 6 internal settings; and smooth Cross Carbon Drag with up to 10 lbs. of drag power. With its super-lightweight, palmable design and superior long-range performance with lighter lures, the Aldebaran MGL is a must-have for the dedicated finesse angler. Suitable for both fresh- and saltwater.
