Saltwater Spinning Reel

The Shimano Thunnus Spinning Reel is a saltwater spinning reel that is designed to withstand the battle against big fish. The Thunnus Spinning Reel, from Shimano Fishing, offers a lightweight reel with the power to stop big fish. Not a sentence you are used to hearing! Seemingly against the laws of nature. Thunnus takes a page from Shimano's Bicycle division using Carbon materials in high impact situations. Thunnus CI4 was created in response to all the anglers out there who loved the ease of use and functionality, but wanted the reel to shed some weight. Thunnus CI4 is up to 7 ounces lighter than its predecessor without sacrificing any power. Due to new drag systems for the Main Drag and the Baitrunner drag Thunnus CI4 is the most efficient live bait spinning reel on the market with unmatched adjustability for fishing any bait in any condition as well as the smooth stopping power that this generation of Thunnus will be known for. We offer the Shimano Thunnus Saltwater Spinning Reel in four sizes: 4000, 6000, 8000 and 12000. For more detailed information on each model please consult the technical specs tab.
