Shimano Metanium DC With perhaps the most advanced brake system on the water, the Shimano® Metanium DC Baitcast Reel offers ultimate cast control for the performance-oriented bass angler. The perfect complement to Shimano's Super Free Spool technology, I-DC5 (digital control) Braking is adjustable to not only match your lure weight, but also your line type, allowing you to fine-tune the reel's casting performance to a degree never before possible. An interior dial lets you select for braid, mono, or fluoro line, while the external dial offers 4 brake strength settings plus a microcomputer-driven Intelligent Auto mode, which adjusts itself 1000 times per second for optimal braking. The result is long, smooth, accurate casting with all line and lure combinations. But the Shimano Metanium DC has much more to offer the advanced angler. This is a premium reel, lightweight and versatile, with many top-line features, including: unyielding Hagane® body construction, S3D Shimano Stable Spool Design, powerful MicroModule gearing for perfect mesh, exclusive X-Ship pinion gear support system, premium 9+1 bearing system with S-ARB shielded anti-rust ball bearings, and a superior drag system with consistent range and up to 11 lbs. of max drag. Clearly, the Metanium DC is a super-smooth, highly durable performance reel worthy of the angler who aspires to the top levels of the sport.
