Shimano Exsence A 4000MXG Spinning Fishing Reel

Sometimes referred to as the Dark Knight Stella, the Shimano Exsence is a high-performance spinning reel that employs many of the same design features as the legendary Stella series of spinning reels in a more rugged and affordable package. An absolutely stellar reel for bass finesse fishing, the Exsence offers a unique combination of extreme sensitivity and raw power thanks to its MicroModule gearing and 20 - 24 pounds of maximum drag. This already buttery smooth performance is then further enhanced by Shimano´s proprietary HAGANE gearing and body and Magnumlite rotor spool, the latter of which also helps increase casting distance up to 22% over traditional aluminum spools.The Exsence doesn´t shy away from inshore saltwater action either. Unlike most magnesium frame reels, the Exsence is saltwater safe thanks to a combination of its HAGANE body and X-Protect, a suite of corrosion resistant features that includes a proprietary water-repellent coating and a unique water channeling labyrinth structure. Additionally, the Exsence is rounded out with an impressive list of Shimano technologies, including: X-Ship Technology for more durability and smooth performance; G-Free Body to re-orient center of gravity and enhance comfort; S A-RB to protect salt and sand from entering the frame and damaging gears, and CI4+ for the ultimate lightweight performance.Overall, if you´re an inshore angler looking to treat themselves or a bass angler lookin´ to finesse some monster bites - this is the reel for you!
