The Shimano Talica is a compact, high-speed lever drag reel designed for long casts and serious stopping power — a favourite among sportfishers for its impressive line capacity in a streamlined body.
Built on a one-piece cold-forged and precision-machined aluminium frame, the Talica offers exceptional rigidity and corrosion resistance. A lightweight cold-forged spool, waterproof Cross Carbon Drag System, and six S-ARB bearings (seven in the 12 and 16 models) deliver ultra-smooth performance under load.
What truly sets the Talica apart is its HEG gearing system in both high and low speeds, providing outstanding cranking power when it matters most.
