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.

Shimano engineers designed Antares 100 B to deliver exceptional casting performance and smoothness, setting a new standard within the Shimano baitcasting reel lineup. The series features innovative braking and line management technologies unique to this flagship series, offering anglers advanced precision and control. To achieve ultra-low spool vibration and maximize casting distance, the Antares 100 B integrates two cutting-edge technologies: the MGL Spool IV and the SVS Infinity braking system. The MGL Spool IV's new reverse-taper design addresses line winding issues that often cause unbalanced spool rotation and vibration. The SVS Infinity system uses internal centrifugal force to adjust the braking based on spool speed — applying more resistance at the start of the cast and less as the cast progresses. This combination minimizes backlashes and enhances casting distance, particularly with light lures. In addition to its sleek, futuristic look, the Antares 100 B boasts ergonomic features like a compact, palm-friendly magnesium HAGANE Body and a redesigned clutch for effortless operation and improved spool access. Now available in North America in a versatile 100 size with both HG and XG right and left-handed models, the Antares 100 B is ideal for anglers seeking the pinnacle of technology and performance in a baitcasting reel.

Power. Precision. Performance: Three words characterizing the attitude behind the next generation of Bantam reels. Equipped with Shimano's Infinity Drive technology to provide anglers with unsurpassed reeling force, engineers designed the new Bantam for the power game. Attack thick vegetation, flip big jigs, burn 1-ounce spinnerbaits, or scour the depths with large crankbaits without resistance or hesitation. Built upon a one-piece aluminum CoreSolid Body, the Bantam provides anglers a solid in-hand feel and the confidence they need during hard hooksets while delivering the power required to yank fish out of the thick stuff. Now featuring Shimano's MGL Spool III with a decreased startup inertia, the Bantam enables anglers to cast further while providing them with the added versatility to fish a variety of baits and presentations. A reel with a reputation for toughness just got even stronger and more versatile: Don't shy away from heavy cover, expansive weed mats or thick hydrilla — step up your Power Game with the next generation of Bantam.

The most obvious component of the Propulsion Line Management System is the new Propulsion Spool Lip design. Through tens of thousands of casting tests and computer simulations, Shimano’s new spool lip design provides longer casting distances than a standard spool lip design while also preventing backlashes and wind knots from forming. G-Free Body technology has been developed to shift the reel's center of gravity closer to the rod. By moving the center of gravity closer to the angler’s hand, the G-Free Body helps to reduce fatigue and enhance casting comfort.
