If you're looking for a specialist slow pitch jigging reel, this is definitely the reel for you. It's packed with features that ensures super-smooth, effortless winding even under load, and it's strong enough to handle monster fish.

The Shimano Ocea Jigger overhead reels have received an extreme make-over from their predecessor. This 'flagship of jigging reels' series comes with a number of exciting features like infinity driver and micro module gear, which results in a 60 per cent reduction in the reeling resistance compared to the old model, not to mention a very smooth retrieve.

The Newly designed handle provides a firm grip and the ability to increase power without losing hold. The combination of the Hagane body and S-Compact body results in an immensely strong yet lightweight jigging reel. Thanks to the eight SA-RB ball bearings and X-Protect, it is also highly saltwater resistant and durable. With a drag range of 7-10kg depending on the model, the new Ocea jigger can handle the biggest fish without a problem.

Features:

• Micro Module Gearing: The addition of MicroModule gear technology to the worm shaft idle gear reduces oscillation vibration. This is an incredible breakthrough in design and delivers an outstanding level smoothness without sacrificing strength or durability. The enhanced smoothness results in greater sensitivity transmitted from your rod, line and lure to your hand.
• Infinity Drive: Developed to provide more powerful and light winding through bearings supporting the pinion gear. By doing so the rotational resistance of the reel has been decreased up to 60%.
• X Protect: Without jeopardising the ‘silky smooth rotation capacity’, the vital feature of Ocea Jigger, exceptional water resistance, has been achieved to withstand the crashing and splashing of waves and spray.
• Shielded Anti-rust Bearings: Shimano S A-RB bearings are high corrosion resistant ARB ball bearings with an extra shield for improved protection against sand, salt or dust.
• EI Surface Treatment: E.I. Surface treatment doubles the durability of the spool surface and gives less wear out by eliminating oxidation.
• Hagane Body: The Hagane Body is produced from high rigidity aluminium or magnesium. This creates stiffness and impact resistance, while at the same time eliminating flexing of the body. The result is a rock solid housing and support for the moving internal gearing and greater efficiency throughout the reel.
• S-Compact Body: Compact body design to reduce weight and allow for better grip and leverage while fighting a fish.
• Exciting Drag Sound: This audible and highly exciting sound, which occurs when a fish runs, is a modern alternative to the more traditional mechanical clicker or ratchet.
• Star Drag
• Saltwater Ready
• Extra High Crank Power Rating
