Shimano Left-handed reel Aldebaran MGL 51 HG

The Shimano Aldebaran MGL is a brazenly lightweight casting reel. Weighing in at just 135 g, it fits perfectly with any lightweight BFS rod, but is also capable of tackling heavier lures and large, powerful predators if required.The Aldebaran MGL is one of those reels you have to fish with (or at least handle) to believe in its lightness, almost rivaling its BFS cousin in terms of weight. If you're the type of angler who generally uses light lures, but you also want a reel that can handle medium-sized lures, this could well be the reel you're looking for. One use that really suits this reel is jigging vertical. Lighter than the lightest spinning reels, and more direct and compact, you can jig with the Aldebaran MGL for hours without tiring.The Aldebaran's light weight is due to the magnesium construction used in both the HAGANE body (with Ci4+ composite side plates) and the shallow spool. It's the lightweight MGL spool with Silent Tune technology that gives this reel its casting performance, as the force required to spin the spool is minimal. And once it's spinning, it doesn't need much force to keep spinning. The result is longer casts with lighter lures. In use, you can feel the benefits of X-SHIP technology when the pressure of a big fish is strong, but if you're looking for a reel suited to fishing techniques such as big bait,autres models from the Shimano range are more suitable. This is a reel for lightweight experts and fits perfectly between a traditional casting and a BFS model.
