Manufacturer's Description: An entry-level model that enhances the performance of "reeling." The Sedona, which has been supported by many anglers for its reliable fishing performance while being reasonably priced, has been renewed. The core of this evolution is the Silent Drive, which is also equipped in the flagship models. It significantly reduces fine play, gaps, and vibrations between internal parts of the reel, transforming it into a reel with smooth rotation performance and quietness. It has also become easier to use for lure fishing, where a delicate reeling feel is essential. From the 500 size for light game to the C5000 size targeting larger fish, we deliver a rich lineup of performance that satisfies both beginners and veteran anglers.
Silent Drive, thoroughly refined for a serene sense of unity. The basic design of the entire body and the drive-related components have been reviewed one by one, thoroughly eliminating fine play, gaps, and vibrations down to the details. The areas of improvement include the drive gear, worm shaft, worm shaft pin, worm shaft gear, and sliding gear, among others. This has achieved a dimension of smooth rotation performance and quietness.
FEATURES: HAGANE - Shimano's design philosophy to create truly usable products utilizing metal processing technology. Robustness that can withstand harsh conditions. A refined reeling feel that stimulates the senses and a reliable operational feel. And lifting power that exceeds imagination. By earnestly pursuing reels that anglers can truly use, HAGANE gears and HAGANE bodies are born, becoming Shimano's belief. Everything is for the anglers.
HAGANE Gear: The goal is an eternally unchanged reeling feel. A solid block of metal is pressed under high pressure and finished with micron-level precision without cutting. This unique technology, known as precision cold forging, creates hard and resilient gears, enabling a smooth reeling feel.
G Free Body: The sliding function parts that allow the spool to move back and forth are positioned at the top of the reel body, successfully bringing the center of gravity closer to the hand. This improves the sense of unity with the rod, leading to reduced fatigue from casting and improved rod operability.
AR-C Spool: A spool with a special spool ring shape. This creates a line straightening effect, achieving both suppression of line troubles and long-distance casting performance.
