The compact 5500 model are supreme their category, combining exceptional value with undoubted performance and credibility. If you are the type of angler who fishes smaller carp waters. The compact size balances lighter test curve rods perfectly and is especially suited to short 9ft-11ft models that are now becoming increasingly popular. It also makes a great large river specialist rod when fishing for barbel with heavy leads and feeders. Alternatively, if you require a compact-size long-range surfcasting reel to balance a lightweight surfcasting rod in the 80-120g casting range, check out the silver\/gunmetal Ultegra XTD, which will enhance your distance casting without overpowering your selected rods. The combination of Shimano\u2019s high build quality and X-SHIP technology delivers the smooth performance associated with the Ultegra XTD. And, with hundreds of thousands in use around Europe, you can be sure that this is one reel that has longevity. Casting performance is maximized by the use of the Parallel Body design with Slow Oscillation, and, for ease of use, the 5500 is fitted with Instant Drag which makes changing from freespool to fish-playing super-fast and locking down your spool easier for a long-range cast into the surf.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2022\tSKU NUMBER: ULT5500XTD<br \/>\n\u2022\tGEAR RATIO: 5.3<br \/>\n\u2022\tMAXIMUM DRAG FORCEKG: 15<br \/>\n\u2022\tMAXIMUM DRAG FORCELB: 33<br \/>\n\u2022\tWEIGHTG: 490<br \/>\n\u2022\tWEIGHTOZ: 17.3<br \/>\n\u2022\tLINE CAPACITY \/ NYLON MONOLB-YD: 10-425, 12-315, 16-230<br \/>\n\u2022\tLINE CAPACITY \/ NYLON MONOMM-M: 0.30-390, 0.35-290, 0.40-210<br \/>\n\u2022\tLINE CAPACITY \/ PENO.-M: 3-370, 4-280, 5-220<br \/>\n\u2022\tLINE RETRIEVE CRANKCM: 105<br \/>\n\u2022\tLINE RETRIEVE CRANKINCH: 41<br \/>\n\u2022\tHANDLE LENGTH MM: 80<br \/>\n\u2022\tBALL BEARING TOTAL AMOUNT: 4\/1<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[148],"product_cat":[119],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-4491","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","5":"product_brand-148","6":"product_cat-c000000007","8":"first","9":"instock","10":"shipping-taxable","11":"purchasable","12":"product-type-simple"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 -
