Lovers of the Shimano Biomaster XSB of old will notice that it has been revamped with a new body, rotor and handle.
With a weight of 705g, it will take a bit more stick if you need to pile a little more pressure on to a fish.
With an Aerowrap two-speed oscillation system, the line-lay is absolutely faultless, especially when using braid. A smooth retrieve and effortless casting keeps this reel among the fixed-spool angler’s all-time favourites.
