It’s not often that you find a spinning reel that has tournament performance and technology but is available at an affordable price – the latest upgrades of the Symetre FJ range provides the ideal choice for professional angler or budding junior where value for money is a priority.

Sick of wind knots and the sloppy line lay of other name-brand reels? The Symetre FJ is armed with Shimano’s advanced Propulsion Line Management System – Propulsion Spool Lip, SR one-piece bail system and Power Roller III for virtually 100% line twist elimination. Lightweight aluminium and graphite (1000 size only) frames, cold forged aluminium spool, Fluidrive II, Dyna-Balance, Super Stopper II and super slow oscillation system all feature as standard.

Of interest to the ‘twig’ fisherman is the new 1000 size which will fit in perfectly as the ideal reel to fish ultra light line classes and lure weights for trout and bream. The larger models feature a high retrieve ratio which will prove popular for launching whitebait sized slices and stickbaits at frenzied pelagic schools.

Propulsion Line Management System
The most obvious component of the Propulsion Line Management System is the new Propulsionspool lip design. This new spool lip design provides longer casting distances than a standard spool lip design while preventing backlashes and wind knots from forming. It also allows the line to flow off of the spool in smaller loops during the cast which means longer casts with less friction.

Super Stopper II
Super Stopper II anti-reverse uses a one-way bearing that eliminates backplay.This provides the angler with instant hooksetting power. In some reels, the Super Stopper II can be turned off to allow backreeling for special techniques and situations.

Fluidrive II
Building upon the successes of Fluidrive, which provides extremely tight tolerances and control in the cutting process, Fluidrive II polishes the gear surface to maximize tooth contact. This increases the efficiency of the retrieve for more power with less effort.
