Shimano Bantam 151 A is a low profile baitcasting reel with a serious attitude! The Coresolid body is made of ultra-strong aluminum and has remarkable stiffness, giving the safe feel of a "round" profile reel, with the ergonomic design and usability of a baitcaster. You will almost certainly know the name Bantam, it has been around for over 40 years and has a loyal following with anglers who want solid, no-nonsense performance. The Bantam 151 reel has a clean and powerful look, is easy to pair with any mid- or high-end Shimano rod, and fits perfectly in the hand, making palming very easy and comfortable. You will surely notice the great casting performance and you cannot fail to be impressed by the powerful performance that is the hallmark of the Bantam name. The latest version of the Bantam benefits from a lightweight MGL III coil and the SVS Infinity system, further enhanced by Silent Tune and Super Free Spool. Any size lures can be safely cast over considerable distances and the reel speed can be instantly adjusted using the outer dial to suit different lure sizes or conditions. But it is the recovery and fishing performance where the Bantam really excels. The combination of Micromodule Gear and Infinity Drive gives super smooth directivity, even when spinning at high speeds, and combined with the stiffness of the Coresolid Body allows you to transfer maximum power from the handle. And don't worry about the lack of stretch if you use braid. The Cross Carbon Drag ensures that the clutch is smooth, powerful and always reliable, even when you ask the toughest questions.
