Compact Power That Doesn’t Quit

At the core of the revamped Shimano 23 Sedona FJ C5000XG Spinning Reel is Shimano’s cutting-edge HAGANE Gear technology. Utilizing cold-forging techniques, this reel stands out from others in its category by delivering enduring smoothness and toughness, ready to handle numerous battles with your prized catch.

The Sedona FJ lineup now includes Shimano’s SilentDrive system, which reduces unwanted noise and vibration for a quieter, more fluid reeling experience. Its improved spool design incorporates the Propulsion Line Management System to enhance casting distance and reduce tangles. Meanwhile, G-Free Body technology shifts the reel’s center of gravity closer to the rod, improving balance and reducing fatigue during extended fishing sessions.

This durable and compact 5000-size model is equipped with a round handle knob, extended handle length, and carbon cross drag washer, making it a solid choice if you prioritize smooth handling and lightweight feel.

Key Features:

• HAGANE Body
  Constructed from a rigid metal frame, the HAGANE Body resists flex and impact during intense fights, converting your effort into powerful, direct cranking force — strength that translates to performance.

• HAGANE Gear
  Forged using Shimano’s cold forging technology with no additional machining, this drive gear ensures lasting smoothness, strength, and lightness. It outperforms traditional diecast or machined gears, especially under heavy strain.

• SilentDrive
  Every component of the drivetrain — including the drive gear, wormshaft, wormshaft pin, and wormshaft gear — has been meticulously refined to eliminate tiny gaps and vibrations, delivering an ultra-smooth and quiet operation.

• G-Free Body
  By relocating the reel’s center of gravity closer to your hand, this technology reduces arm fatigue and improves casting comfort.

• Propulsion Line Management System
  The redesigned spool lip allows for longer casts and helps prevent backlashes and wind knots. It also releases line in tighter loops, reducing line slap on the rod guides.
