Shimano Aero XR Front Drag Coarse Reel

Aero XR Reel Description

The Shimano Aero XR is a technically advanced match and feeder fishing reel containing all of the attributes required by professional anglers. It includes an anti-reverse, lightweight CI4+ body and rotor, plus Shimanos HAGANE gearing for super smooth performance with a long life.

If you fish using a float or feeder method, and want a tough reliable reel to match your ability, the Aero XR is the solution. All of the reels balance perfectly with Shimano’s best Aero match and feeder rods.

All the models have  super smooth waterproof drags, and an anti-reverse facility. You can play fish directly off the drag when using stronger lines, by back-winding when using fine lines, or by using a combination of both.

• The smallest 3000 size is perfect for all float fishing and close range feeder fishing
• The mid-sized 4000 is ideal for larger float work or mid range feeder fishing. 
• The largest 5000 size is ideal for longer feeder work or mid-range heavy feeder work.

With a G-Free CI4+ body and rotor all models are remarkably light, with the 4000 size weighing only 250g, which is a noticeable reduction compared to competitor models of the same size. An additional advantage which you can feel is the precision of the lightweight rotation, which is a result of the CI4+ Rotor construction and the HAGANE Gear, X-SHIP, Silent Drive technology.

Additional features include the best AR-C Cold Forged Aluminium spools, (including a spare spool) with a line reducer to reduce the line capacity of the reel.

The larger 5000 model has an additional reducer for use with braid when feeder fishing at long range.

Power is delivered by a very direct screw in handle and a metal line clip, that is strong and line-safe.

Visually, the understated ‘stealth-like’ looks of the Aero XR are stunning and combined with the advanced engineering technology combine to make a real workhorse of a match fishing reel.
