The Shimano Chronarch Baitcaster.

Shimano introduced the 1st Chronarch in 1993 and since then new materials, new design features and new technologies tend to be utilized by each upgraded line-up of the Shimano Chronarch Baitcaster group of reels.

Shimano has always combined the top features from old and added them to the brand new to create very successful reels.

The redesigned Shimano Chronarch Baitcaster is packed with exciting features that make this reel far better than ever before.

Now most of these modern features are found in the latest Shimano Chronarch Baitcaster

When you lift it from your box first of all , what you’ll see is a new sleek body design which has resulted in a significant weight reduction and improved ergonomics. The next thing you see is the colour and very durable finish on the Shimano Chronarch Baitcaster because of the Ion Plating technology exclusive to Shimano, this exact Ion Plating was adopted for the Stella Reels.

Take notice of the Aluminium spool so far as I know its a brand new design to give you longer and smoother casts,it somehow reduces inertia allowing the spool to spin considerably quicker

The entry point to access the VBS centrifugal braking system has been changed from the screw lock system to a user friendly trigger system saving time if you have to make changes/adjustments while fishing.

Another exclusive recent innovation of shimano’s is the HEG; High Efficiency Gearing.They have increased the diameter of the gear wheels which gives far more leverage and much greater speed on the retrieve.
