Shimano Ocea Jigger - 1501HG

Very often, when someone mentions Ocea Jigger, the image of a refined Jigging reel comes to mind. So how do you improve a legend? For Shimano, we start where it matters most, The Core. Fusing our most advanced manufacturing capabilities with the wants of anglers; we've made the 2017 Ocea Jigger's cranking action even lighter and smoother than before while maintaining uncompromised strength and durability. Incorporating MicroModule gears, Infinity Drive and a cold forged long crank handle, the 2017 Ocea Jigger's rotational resistance has been successfully reduced by approximately 60%. The new Jigger also features X-Protect, previously found only on the 2017 Twinpower XD. With X-Protect, waterproofing capabilities is greatly enhanced as water is prevented from entering the drive gear shaft and spool shaft bearing. On the exterior, a new star shape drag is added to lower the risk of line entanglement in high wind conditions. Minor tweaks have been made to the Hagane Body to give you a more comfortable grip. Never judge a reel by its covers because... Beauty comes from within.

Features:

Micromodule Gear
With gear teeth refined to the limit, Micromodule Gear System enables seamless engagement and power transmission, giving anglers eternally smooth reeling.

Hagane Body
Made of highly rigid metals such as aluminium and magnesium. Weigth has been greatly reduced while reel flexure, warp and distortion has been eliminated, allowing for smotth reeling with little power loss.

X-Protect
6 times more resistant than Core Protect, X-protect utilizes a labyrinth (maze) structure and water-repellant treatment to prevent water from entering the inner areas of reel.

S Compact Body
Compact body design to reduce weight and allow for better grip and leverage while fighting a fish

E.I.
With E.I., after the anodisation process is finished, a second layer of surface treatment is added. This treatment is forced into the remaining surface impurities. This gives salt no hideout and also results in an extremely smooth-to-the-touch finish.

Exciting Drag Sound
This audible and high exciting sound which occurs when a fish runs is a modern alternative to the traditional clicker or ratchet.

S-ARB
Shielded Anti-Rust bearing are similar to A-RB, but feature additional shields for the ultimate protection.
