Shimano METANIUM DC A Low Profile Reels METDC71XGA – Precision Casting & I-DC5 Braking

Shimano METANIUM DC A Low Profile Reels

Meet the Shimano METANIUM DC A Low Profile Reels (METDC71XGA), engineered to be remarkably light for a DC reel, thanks to a one-piece CoreSolid magnesium frame that minimizes weight without sacrificing stiffness. This design supports fatigue-free operation during long days on the water. The compact silhouette suits a variety of rod setups and hand sizes, helping you present a broad spectrum of lures with precision and distance across different water conditions.

Core strengths you can feel

The HAGANE Body design resists flex under load, translating into steadier cranking power when a fish takes line. The CoreSolid magnesium body combines rigidity with lightness, while MicroModule Gear ensures a smooth, responsive retrieve across each rotation.

Braking and spool technology for precise casts

The I-DC5 digital braking system lets you fine-tune resistance for line type, lure weight, and fishing conditions, delivering improved accuracy and casting control. Coupled with Shimano's MGL Spool III, start-up inertia is reduced to help you reach longer, more consistent casts.
