Shimano Tranx 150 Baitcasting Reel
Designed with Texas and Gulf Coast wading anglers in mind, the all-new Tranx 150 expands the Tranx family of low-profile reels with a versatile offering perfect for lighter inshore presentations. A saltwater workhorse, the Tranx 150 employs a HAGANE Body for added durability while enhancing the overall smoothness by housing the internal components within a metal body that resists flexing during tough battles. The smallest offering in the Tranx lineup, the Tranx 150 delivers the palmability of its freshwater counterparts but offers anglers enhanced durability in saltwater environments with CoreProtect technology. A protective coating applied to critical areas, CoreProtect ensures water beads up and rolls off the reel to reduce water intrusion for added durability when chasing inshore game fish. With an inherent desire to be a glutton for punishment, the Tranx 150 boasts enhanced stopping power by utilizing Shimano's Cross Carbon Drag material to deliver smooth and dependable drag performance across the drag range. Design and technology combine to create the ideal low-profile reel for inshore applications. Demand more with Tranx 150.
