Casting

Completely redesigned by Shimano engineers to be the most advanced Metanium ever produced.

Built on the same compact, rigid and versatile platform as the popular SLX baitcasting reel, with the addition of Shimano’s unique DC Braking technology, SLX DC puts no compromise casting performance within every angler's reach.

Aldebaran MGL offers paramount lightweight performance. The MGL Spool allows anglers to cast small baits with ease. At 4.8 ounces, the Aldebaran MGL is the lightest reel in the Shimano lineup, giving anglers all-day comfort.
