GLOSSARY

SV Power Paddles

Low Profile and Round Baitcasting These are the largest of the paddle grips and provide extra fish fighting power when battling feisty inshore species.

SVS Infinity

Shimano’s newest innovation in brake system technology, SVS∞ provides easy-to-manage, consistent spool control and brake force on the new Chronarch CI4+ baitcasting reels. With brake weights that use ‘inner fric - tion’ against the raceway during the cast, SVS∞ controls spool speed for precision casting especially when using lighter lures. The external adjustment knob provides for quick, precise adjustments for either the condi - tions or when you switch baits.

Tapered Levelwind Insert

Low Profile This levelwind insert is coated with titanium, improving the durability of the insert by increasing abrasion resistance. It also reduces friction on the line for increased casting distance and reduced line wear. The tapered design not only makes it easier to thread the line through when setting up the reel, but also further reduces friction and line angles during the cast for more distance.

TI Spool Lip

Spinning and Offshore Spinning The titanium coated spool lip provides incredible durability with today’s braided lines. It also drastically re - duces the friction during the cast allowing for smooth, effortless casting distances.
