Shimano Talica 50II 2 speed Reel

Shimano Talica 50II 2 speed Reel

The Talica 50 2 speed reel is an excellent deep water reel tested on giant Bluefin, Swordfish, and of coarse will easily handle Hapuku and Bluenose.

For a game fishing reel the Shimano Talica is built like a soviet tank, although it acts like a Ferrari. This series offers a high speed retrieve reel that you can use for jigging just as easy as you would use it for trolling.

Each model has a one-piece cold forged (for extreme strength) and machined Aluminium frame is treated with a proprietary surface process for cutting-edge corrosion protection. Shimano then added a lightweight cold forged aluminium spool, oversized HEG (High Efficiency Gearing) gears, waterproof carbon drag system and 6 S-ARB bearings for super slick operation.

This series of game reels can exert extremely high drag pressures for their respective sizes and a carbon drag system has been waterproofed (when engaged) to handle big sea sprays and splashes which become inevitable when fishing the stones or offshore dropping jigs.

The range features 4 sizes – 8, 10, 12 and 16, while the High Efficiency Gearing means that they have the power to fight fish well above their weight class.

SHIMANO TALICA TWO-SPEED 50
With its pale gold spool, drag lever and handle, and silver frame and sideplates, the new Shimano Talica dual speed 50 is a very attractive fishing reel. While cosmetic features are great, it’s the internals that really make this reel tick.

The oversized High Efficiency Gearing (HEG) comes in two speeds — 3.8:1 and 1.7:1. The lower ratio assists in getting stubbornly resisting fish to the surface, and also means that the Talica 50 can perform double duty when spooled with fine-for-its-breaking strain braid for deep dropping the offshore reefs.

The range of the waterproof Carbon drag is immense and it’s possible to dial up 25 kilos of fish-stopping pressure if the situation warrants it, and the cold-forged aluminium spool is impervious to buckling or distortion.

The Talica two-speed 50 can be cast quite easily, making it ideal as a pitch-bait reel in the deep blue or for live baiting for marlin and tuna off the rocks, where getting a livie away from the edge is paramount to success.

Six SA-RB (sealed, anti-rust) bearings means winding is a breeze, even when the reel is under heavy load, and this contributes to reel’s casting ability.

S A-RB
These bearings have been through the same process as the A-RB bearings but feature shields on both sides of the bearings. That system reduces the possibility of salts or sand inhibiting the bearing's rotation.
Tough drag system
The tough drag system allows you to fish three or four line classes heavier than you would normally do on a reel of its size. Now you get to spend less time fighting your tackle and more time fighting the fish.
Metal Series
Metal frames not only keep moving parts in precise alignment, they also feature the use of the latest anodizing, plating and painting techniques for a beautiful and durable finish.
Cold Forged Aluminium
The Talica's spool provides increased strength and durability over diecast aluminium or graphite spools.
Shielded Anti-rust Bearings
Anti-rust Bearings are made of stainless steel that has been through the A-RB process. At least 10 times more corrosion-resistant than standard stainless steel ball bearings. It also features shields on both sides of the bearing to reduce the possibility salt or sand and allow the bearings to spin faster and longer.
