Shimano 2025 Exsence B Spinning Reel
Built for anglers chasing peak performance, the lightweight Shimano Exsence delivers smooth casting, powerful reeling, and rugged durability—from saltwater to fresh.
The flagship reel of the MGL series, the Exsence features the Magnumlite Rotor—Ci4+ carbon and an asymmetrical design to cut weight and inertia for ultra-responsive control and smoother retrieves. INFINITYLOOP technology delivers longer, more accurate casts, ideal for finesse fishing. Rapid Fire Drag allows quick adjustments during the fight, while the Infinity Drive reduces resistance for effortless reeling. From saltwater to freshwater, make every cast count with fewer interruptions.
To have your reel professionally spooled for only the cost of the line itself*, feel free to visit our Braided Line Per-Yard page or try some of our customers' favorite lines below!
*All reels will be backed with 20lb Clear Berkley Trilene Big Game Monofilament to fill the spool at no additional cost if the ordered length of braid alone does not fill the spool. To have your reel spooled with straight braid, either: 1. Order a quantity of braid that will overfill the spool and we will refund the difference, or 2. Contact Us with your request and we will promptly spool your reel and contact you with the exact length of braid to add to your order. For more detailed spooling instructions, such as the additions of leaders or topshots using specific knots, crimps, and/or hollow core splices, please Contact Us as well. If you can dream it, we can rig it!
