Shimano SPHEROS FB Series

Preferred by the country's top saltwater guides, Spheros reels are built to withstand the abuse Mother Nature dishes out, thanks to its waterproof drag, A-RB bearings and cold forged aluminum spool. And not only can the Spheros take it, it can dish it out too, with up to 44 pounds of drag.
