A technical versatile model that covers everything from lightweight lures to big baits. The I-DC5 unit, which has been highly evaluated at Calcutta Conquest DC, is installed in a sophisticated low profile body. It has excellent long-throw performance, anti-backlash performance, and the characteristics of the DC, which is strong against weather conditions such as wind, have been further refined. The spool uses the ultra-thin Magnum Light Spool III. The quick rise of rotation derived from low inertia is especially effective with light lures, and it is possible to shoot the lure at will with a low trajectory even under a narrow overhang. A micro module gear is placed at the drive center. With smooth and powerful winding and 3 gear ratio variations, it matches every lure from Makimono to shooting.
Shimano Reel - 22 SLX DC XT
Amazing flight and anti-backlash performance. Technical versatile model equipped with I-DC5 unit.
KEY FEATURE
Transplanted I-DC5, the brain of Calcutta Conquest DC. The new trend of Versatile DC is here.
By porting the I-DC5, an electronically controlled brake unit inherited from the Calcutta Conquest DC, to the SLX DC, it covers everything from lightweight lures to big baits, while offering high long-distance casting performance and anti-backlash performance. Versatile DC was born. The I-DC5 unit, which is packed in a new shape body composed of gentle curves, realizes a flight distance and easy casting that exceeds the conventional I-DC4 equipped model. With the synergistic effect of the low-profile body that is easy to palm, it is a DC-equipped model that creates a new flow of versatile tiles that can easily handle everything from ultra-long throws to technical casts.
Equipped with low inertia Magnum Light Spool III. Push the performance of I-DC5 to a further dimension.
Magnum Light Spool III achieves unprecedented low inertia due to a significant reduction in thickness. Equipped with this lightweight spool, which brings an outstanding cast feel that rises lightly and stretches comfortably, it is now possible to perform pinpoint casting with low trajectory with higher accuracy. The combination of Magnum Light Spool III and I-DC5's precise brake control suppresses the occurrence of backlash, and the SLX DC XT has a good elongation that allows you to aim further. Unprecedented ease of handling and outstanding castability will boost anglers' aggressive attacks.
