Shimano Tekota 500 HG LC
Right Handed 6.3:1 Gear Ratio
A favorite trolling reel is now more impressive than ever. The Shimano® Tekota® A Levelwind Reel has been redesigned for more seaworthy performance and better handling. Shimano has reduced the Tekota A's overall footprint by a whopping 20%, incorporating its S-compact body design to ensure a comfortable, ergonomically-driven fit and feel in the hand, with no loss of power or performance. And this powerful reel now features advanced Coreprotect® water resistance technology to prevent contaminants from getting inside the reel, ensuring smooth operation and long-term corrosion resistance. Meanwhile, the Shimano Tekota A Levelwind Reel offers the same great features that have made it popular with charter captains: rigid, all-metal Hagane® Body for flex-free performance under heavy load; premium S-ARB® shielded anti-rust ball bearings; ultrasmooth Cross Carbon drag system with plenty of lockdown power; and an extra-loud bait clicker that can easily be heard over the motor noise. The improved comfort, power, and durability of the Tekota A is sure to make every day on the water more productive.
