The Reel
For years and years, anglers have the same experience about
Stradic: a reel that will never let you down. The new
Shimano Stradic FL 4000 XG Spinning Reel is
designed to outperform all of its predecessors. For the first time
in the Stradic class, the reel now features Silent Drive,
Micromodule Gear II and a Long Stroke Spool for better casting
distance. Durability has been further improved with increased gear
strength and X-Protect water resistance. This proposition makes the
Stradic FL the ideal ‘all-round’ spinning reel. It can be used for
any type of freshwater fishing and is very suitable for ways of
fishing where reliability and strength are important. At the same
time this reel is an ideal choice for saltwater inshore
fishing.

The Extra High Hear (XG) Shimano Stradic FL 4000 XG
Spinning Reel is ideal for a range of estuary and inshore
environments. Weighing in at 260g and suited to using braided line
from 15lb to 20lb and is designed to match rods in the 3-6kg up to
4-8kg line class. Featuring 6+1 bearings, a 6.2:1 gear ratio and an
upgraded Cross Carbon Drag system with 11kg of power.

Perfect for a wide variety of fishing styles, the Stradic FL 4000
XG is built to enhance your time on the water. Upgrade now!

Micro Module II
State-of-the-art, gear tooth surface design and MicroModule Gear
II, are further advanced through Shimano’s exclusive manufacturing
technology. The surfaces of the drive gear and pinion gear have
been analysed and updated from the ground up in pursuit of
perfection.

Silent Drive
From the fundamental, whole body design to the most intricate parts
of the drive train, including the drive gear, wormshaft, wormshaft
pin and wormshaft gear, every piece has been carefully reviewed,
and the smallest clearance gaps and wobbles have been eliminated to
the highest tolerances.

New HAGANE Gear
Hagane Gear has become the cornerstone of many of Shimano’s finest
spinning reels. With Shimano’s own precision cold forging
technology, the new Stradic, has improved gear durability and is
equipped with a newly designed Hagane gear with equivalent strength
to the upper model.

One Piece Bail
The one piece bail wire has no gap for the line to snag on during
normal operation. Made of stainless steel, it reduces friction and
allows the line to get into the line roller quicker.

X-Protect
By combining our water repellent coating and our specially
designed, water channeling labyrinth construction, X-Protect
provides high-level water resistance without sacrificing light gear
and rotor rotation.

Long Stroke Spool
The long stroke spool design improves casting performance when
compared to the previous model due to the improved line flow from
the spool.

The Rod
The new Shimano #KAOS Spinning Rod is designed
from the ground up by the team at Shimano NZ to suit New Zealand
species and fishing conditions. Featuring the new vibrant WINN
grips, this rod not only provides top end comfort, but also a
unique feel, only previously found in custom rod builds. The T45
blank construction, with its internal carbon wrap is used on
industry leading Toray carbon which creates a light, balanced and
crisp action with outstanding blank recovery. The #KAOS also
features Fuji soft touch reel seats and guides to highlight and
complete the whole aesthetics and quality of this class leading
rod. When it comes to lure fishing, whether it’s dropping Shimano
metal lures or casting softbaits and small top water lures, the
Shimano #KAOS has it covered.

WINN Grips
Unlike traditional cork or EVA grips, the new WINN grips are made
from high quality polymer formulated to provide firmness, texture,
sensitivity and comfort even when wet.
