Shimano SLX BFS XG – a lightweight BFS (Bait Finesse System) baitcasting reel, specifically designed for fishing with ultra-light lures. Its specialised construction allows comfortable casting with lures from approximately 1 g, making it an excellent choice for finesse fishing for perch, trout and other predatory fish.

The high 8.2:1 gear ratio provides fast line retrieval, picking up approximately 82 cm of line per handle turn. This allows quick lure control and efficient recovery of slack line.

Weighing just 170 g, the reel pairs perfectly with lightweight and sensitive baitcasting rods. This is the Left Hand version, designed to be retrieved with the left hand.
