Shimano Bantam 151 Left Hand
Bantam is a low-profile baitcasting reel with a serious attitude! The Coresolid body is made of ultra-strong aluminum and has a remarkable rigidity, giving the secure feeling of a "round" profile reel, with the ergonomic design and usability of a baitcaster.
You will almost certainly be familiar with the Bantam name, it has been around for over 40 years and has a loyal following among bait anglers who want straightforward, solid performance. The reel looks clean and powerful, is easy to pair with almost any rod, and sits comfortably in the hand making it very easy and comfortable to hold the reel.
The great casting performance and the powerful fish game performance are the hallmark of the Bantam name. The latest version of the Bantam benefits from a lightweight MGL III Spool and SVS Infinity brake, which is further enhanced by Silent Tune and Super Free Spool. Baits of almost any size can be safely cast remarkable distances and the braking action can be instantly adjusted using the external knob to suit different bait sizes or conditions. The combination of Micromodule Gear and Infinity Drive provides a super smooth directness, even when cranking at high speeds, and combined with the rigidity of the Coresolid Body makes it possible to transfer maximum power from the handle to the fish when it really heats up. And don't worry about the lack of stretch if you use braided line. Cross Carbon Drag ensures that the drag is smooth, powerful and reliable in all situations.
