Shimano Ultegra XR 14000 XTD ULTXR14000XTD

The Shimano Ultegra XR XTD 14000 Reel sits proudly at the top of Shimano’s most popular Ultegra Big Pit fishing reel family. Developed with modern carp fishing in mind, this reel is widely considered to be one of the best carp reels ever made. Packed with the latest long range casting technology including Rigid Cast, this insanely lightweight Shimano 14000 XTD sized big pit reel has been specifically designed to maximise rod speed when long range casting, whilst retaining smoothness under high winding loads. With an upper mid-range price tag you get a lot of carp reel for your money with the Ultegra XR and one look at the specification tells you this is a serious long distance reel. With understated colours, a large spool, neat compact body made of Ci4+ composite, plus some of Shimano’s top long range casting technology, you’ll certainly not be short of features if you choose the Ultegra XR. In use you’ll appreciate the low weight of these Shimano Carp Reels, especially when pushing your casting range to the limit. The lightness enables you to generate faster fishing rod speeds, which combined with other long range technology including Rigid Cast, leads to consistently longer casts. Inside the lightweight CI4+ G FREE body is a combination of HAGANE Gear, X-SHIP, INFINITY DRIVE and SILENT DRIVE which work together to produce smooth, powerful rotation, even under extreme pressure and heavy loads. Long range casting is enhanced with some of Shimano’s leading technology including Super Slow 5 Oscillation, Parallel Body and Rigid Cast which combine to generate increased distance and supreme accuracy. For all-weather protection X-Protect technology prevents water from getting into the moving parts of this Shimano reel, ensuring your reel maintains its performance in all conditions. This latest model in the Shimano Ultegra 14000 XTD range is also fitted with a Hi-Speed drag which can be locked and loosened with minimal rotation of the adjustment knob for precise fish-playing control at all times.
