Is this the perfect choice all-round reel for the UK based angler? Available in two sizes and featuring the somewhat unique combination of a lever drag, level wind and centrifugal brakes, this is one reel that is equally at home casting baits uptide from an anchored boat as it is working artificial lures such as jelly worms and shads over deepwater wrecks and reefs on the drift. The Shimano Charter Special is the perfect choice for use with either braid or monofilament lines.
A Conventioanl Trolling Reel from Shimano. The Charter Special is a lightweight, dependable leverdrag reel, with levelwind for line control.
The Facts: The Shimano Charter Special reels are basically TLDs with a levelwind. They feature stainless steel gears, 4 ARB ball bearings, and a titanium lever drag all housed in a graphite frame.
