Shimano Ultegra XTE 14000 Carp Reel

Based on Shimano’s best-selling models, the Ultegra XTE and XSE are poised to redefine the mid-range big pit reel scene. These big pits with sleek monochromatic bodies now include many additional new leading Shimano ‘long cast’ technologies and will exceed your expectations. Only Shimano reels possess Super Slow Oscillation, which is a good enough reason to purchase the Ultegra XTE or XSE. But also think of all the other technologies in these impossible to ignore bigpit star players. Not only will these reels allow you to cast further, they will fish better, last longer and look great under any rod you pair them with. If you prefer dark “stealth-like” colours, the XTE is your choice. If you’re more enamored with lighter silver or gray reels, then the XSE would probably appeal to you the most. Whichever one you choose, you can be sure you’ve made a good decision. Hidden in the stiff lightweight CI4+ body is a selection of Shimano’s most advanced reel technology. HAGANE Gear and X-SHIP combine with Infinity Drive and Silent Drive for amazing smoothness and lightweight rotation. However, don’t be fooled. Test the Ultegra to the max on the fly and the reel will produce the power you need and more. And while the internal reel technology is a work of art, it’s the casting performance that you want to own this reel for. The Super Slow 5 Oscillation generates an amazingly smooth line travel that has been proven to reduce friction and increase your casting potential. As if that wasn’t enough…there’s more. The following features also contribute to the perfect performance of the reel. Rigid Cast reduces the deflection of the spool at the moment of release during the cast and Parallel Body sends the line at the perfect angle to the starting guide of the rod. As the line passes over the aluminum AR-C spool, it reduces friction. The end result of all this is a workhorse and casting canon that you have never seen before in this price range!
