Shimano Cardiff XR C2000SHG

The Cardiff XR is a high-end reel designed for trout area fishing and trout fishing on larger bodies of water. The combination of classic design and minimal weight means it fits perfectly with SHIMANO trout rods and also benefits from an extremely precise braking system when using thin main lines.
Are you looking for a special reel that balances your lightweight area trout rods and offers equal amounts of precision and finesse? If you are looking for a spinning reel that perfectly balances lightweight Trout Area rods and also scores with outstanding precision and finesse, the Cardiff XR is the perfect solution. Visually, this reel is clearly different from other Shimano spinning reels thanks to the round cork handle and the deep green pearlescent finish - a reel that definitely makes a visual statement. The very low starting resistance enables super precise bait guidance, and thanks to the ultra-fine front drag, line breaks with thin main lines are a thing of the past.
As you would expect from a high-end finesse spinning reel from SHIMANO, the Cardiff XR boasts an impressive arsenal of exclusive high-end technologies. The lightweight CI4+ body in G-FREE design ensures optimal balance when using ultralight rods. Inside, HAGANE Gear, X-SHIP, Micro Module II and Silent Drive ensure smooth and efficient rotation, which has extremely low starting resistance thanks to the latest generation of MGL rotor with low inertia. This results in a noticeable advantage when it comes to precise guidance of the smallest baits. The special felt washers of the precise braking system are tailored to fishing techniques with fine lines and make the Cardiff XR the perfect trout area spinning reel.
