The addition of Shimano’s innovative Infinity Drive technology leverages a new design to increase drag force while reducing side-load pressure, resulting in up to 40% lighter rotation during tough battles and high-drag situations. The silky-smooth Cross Carbon Drag now has a maximum drag pressure of up to 66 pounds, and, combined with a low gear ratio and redesigned handle configuration (in some models), Talica A produces unparalleled winding power. The new generation of Talica A features X-Protect technology to deliver high-level water resistance in key areas, improving durability without sacrificing a light gear feel. An included Light-Line Drag Cam provides added versatility with a more gradual drag curve for anglers fishing lighter line systems.
