Don't be fooled by the Talica's compact size and light weight; this reel is a beast. Originally designed for fighting large prey like marlin and tuna, the Talica can also be used for jigging and bottom fishing with braid. If you are looking for a compact, maneuverable, and super-fast overhead reel, you certainly cannot go wrong with these beauties. And if you are the type of angler who appreciates handle power, check out the 2-speed (II) models, which shift seamlessly from high to low gear, and the larger 20II CAM and 25II CAM models, which feature adjustable cams to fine-tune drag performance.
Based on the principle that a compact body equals less weight, smaller size, and better handling compared to classic overhead reels of equal power, the Talica is truly a high-speed dream machine. Equipped with a super-strong aluminum frame, which has an advanced corrosion-resistant E.I. finish, the compact size fits perfectly in your hand. The waterproof drag offers remarkable power and can be adjusted instantly using the easy-to-access lever, while the 6 shielded A-RB bearings, brass gears, and aluminum spool ensure everything runs as smoothly as you would expect from a high-quality Shimano reel.
