The Shimano TLD 2-Speed range is renowned for its reliability and solid, proven construction, making it versatile for diverse angling applications. Whether you are trolling with monofilament lines for live bait, subsurface bibbed lures, or game lures targeting species like kingfish, tuna, or marlin, these Shimano TLD 2-Speed reels perform exceptionally. They are also ideal for employing braided lines, such as PowerPro, to drop baited hooks into the benthos, effectively targeting bluenose, hapuka, and bass. Shimano's composite XT-7 frame material, a hallmark of the TLD 2-Speed family of reels, provides a modern aesthetic and effectively eliminates body twist, ensuring consistent performance on the water.
