GLOSSARY

Power Roller ® III

Saltwater and Spinning This is an oversized line roller that reduces twist from casting and retrieving, and uses a cone-shaped support to help get the line onto the roller quicker, with less chance of tangles or line cuts.

Power Roller ® IV with Overflange protection

This oversized line roller has all of the benefits of Power Roller III but also increased line protection through it’s use of a flange that goes over the bail arm rather than into the bail arm like on traditional reels.

PV Power Paddles

Low Profile and Round Baitcasting These oversized paddle grips provide extra power and remain comfortable after a full day of deep cranking.

Propulsion ® Line Management System

Spinning and Offshore Spinning A five-component system, this spinning reel feature includes a spool lip designed to prevent backlashes and wind knots from forming. Line also flows off the spool in smaller loops meaning less line slap on the stripper guide, which, when combined with the long stroke spool design, provides longer casting distance due to less friction. The unique shape of the spool and the spool lip design combine to keep the line from bouncing on the spool lip or stripper guide, and helps to reduce line twist and backlashes. the system also includes Shi - mano’s SR-Concept One-Piece Bail wire to reduce friction and tangles, a twist-reducing Power Roller III line roller, a bail trip mechanism that easily trips the bail by turning the handle, and Shimano’s S-Arm Cam. This final component keeps the line in contact with the line roller during slack line fishing such as vertical jigging and drop-shotting.
