Step up to the next level of attainable high-performance. The Shimano SLX XT low-profile reel takes the SLX baitcasting series’s winning performance a step further with a refreshed design that amplifies angler performance. Housed in a rigid yet incredibly lightweight HAGANE Body, the Shimano SLX 150 XT low-profile reel features Shimano’s upgraded SVS Infinity Braking System that enables anglers to make more subtle adjustments by using only the external dial on the palming side of the reel. The benefit: enhanced casting performance for greater casting distance with a broader range of lure styles and lure weights. The Shimano SLX XT is available in three gear ratios 6.3:1, 7.2:1 (HG), and 8.2:1 (XG) and offered in right- and left-handed models. Looking for an advantage on the water? Shimano specifically designed the SLX XT for anglers looking for a leg up on the competition…or the next trophy bass.
