For over two decades, the Shimano TLD series of reels has been a mainstay in the Australian fishing market. There probably isn’t an offshore fisherman who doesn’t own a TLD reel.
The Shimano TLD fishing reels are one of the most versatile lever drag overhead reels out there. The Shimano TLD 25 Over head Reel is arguably the best selling model in the TLD range. Best suited for light to medium tackle fishing.
The TLD 25 reels are very easy to operate that even a newbie will feel like a pro in no time. All you have to do is to place a thumb on the spool, flip the lever back to the ‘free’ position and let the Shimano TLD 25 do its magic.
The lever drag system are a breeze to setup and use. Just pre-set your strike drag before you go fishing and no matter what you do (moving from free spool or full drag and anywhere between) just throw the lever back in to the position and your drag is set at the value you started with.
The Tld range of fishing reels from Shimano are popular amongst offshore fisho’s and can even be used on the rocks to live bait for big pelagics. Designed for big and fast fishes like small marlin, sails, mackerel, wahoo, yellowtail kingfish, yellow fin tuna, albacore, cobia and so on, this reel would never let you down.
