Hagane body
The HAGANE body is a metal reel body with high rigidity. The body stiffness and impact resistance virtually eliminates body flexing. The result transforms the angler's actions directly into cranking power. It's efficiency through strength.

SVS Infinity braking system
Shimano's innovation in brake system technology, SVS Infinity provides easy-to-manage, consistent spool control and brake force. With brake weights that use inner friction against the raceway during the cast, SVS Infinity controls spool speed for precision casting especially when using lighter lures. The external adjustment knob provides for quick, precise adjustments for either the conditions or when you switch baits.

Shimano Stable Spool Design (S3D)
Shimano's S3D technology leads to significantly reduced spool vibration. By designing a balanced and uniform thin wall aluminium constructed spool, S3D creates an incredibly smooth feeling when casting and retrieving lures.

Super free spool
SF was designed to eliminate friction on the spool shaft during the cast. In standard baitcasting reels, when the clutch bar is pressed down, the pinion gear is freed and actually can drag on the spool shaft creating friction that can limit the length of a cast. With SF the pinion gear is supported by a ball bearing so that when the clutch is disengaged in preparation for a cast, the pinion gear and spool shaft are kept in perfect alignment. The result is zero friction upon the spool shaft.

X-ship technology
The X-ship technology will give you a retrieve so smooth and effortless, you'll wonder if it's even in gear! By supporting the pinion gear on both ends with S-ARB bearings and integrating a bigger drive gear, Shimano increased the reel's gearing efficiency and power. This means that you'll get a smooth and powerful reel rotation even under heavy loads.

High Efficiency Gearing (HEG)
HEG consists of not only the gears, but also the frame, set plate and handle-side side plate. Shimano increased the size of the drive gear and the pinion gear to offer increased leverage and power. By using a one-piece frame that incorporates the set plate and adding a one-piece stamped side plate, you don't need to worry about your gears binding under pressure.

From the rivers and lakes to the multitude of inshore saltwater options available the Shimano Citica 200 I HG Baitcaster Reel takes it on!

The Rod
The Shimano Catana Nano Baitcaster Rod is performance designed with the introduction of the latest nano resin technologies. The nanomaterials used in the construction of the Shimano Catana Nano range creates a feather-light and ultra-responsive family of rods designed with Kiwi anglers in mind.
