Game On with Unmatched Performance!

Engineered for the relentless pursuit of species like Stripeys, the Shimano Tiagra 30WLRSA Game Reel combines rugged durability with precision control. It features a distinctive darker, heavy-duty gold anodized finish, a newly designed Septon power handle, and a drilled drag quadrant calibrated specifically for New Zealand fishing conditions.

The enhanced anodizing significantly boosts corrosion resistance against saltwater, while the click-stop drag system ensures ultra-precise adjustments. A counterbalanced handle offers natural handling during strikes and smooth retrieval throughout extended fights, and its rubberized tacky grip ensures maximum control—even with wet or sweaty hands.

Game fishing demands gear that can withstand extreme pressure. Whether you're fishing from a chair or in stand-up harness against marlin, tuna, or shark, the Tiagra is built to perform. Its one-piece frame is machined from a robust 7mm aluminium tube—the thickest available—and paired with A-RB anti-rust bearings, heavy-duty stainless steel gears, and a reliable two-speed shifting mechanism. This reel is as committed to the fight as you are.

About the Technology:

Shimano Metal Series
The premium metal construction seen in Shimano’s flagship reels is featured across the Metal Series. These frames ensure perfect alignment of components and are treated with advanced anodizing, plating, and painting techniques for lasting beauty and strength.

Anti-Rust Bearings (A-RB)
A-RB bearings are made from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, offering至少10 times more protection than standard bearings. The open-side design allows easy cleaning and lubrication while reducing friction for faster, smoother operation.

Cold Forged Aluminium Spool
Forged for superior strength, these spools outperform standard die-cast aluminium and graphite alternatives.

2-Speed Gearing
Shift seamlessly under pressure. Engage low gear with a button press for power retrieval, and return to high speed by sliding the release. With two dedicated gear sets, the transition is smooth and instant—no meshing required.
