Shimano Antares B 101 XG
For over 20 years, the Antares has been the flagship of Shimano’s baitcasting reels, and the latest version of the Antares B continues this tradition. With its futuristic design, this masterpiece is one of the most versatile baitcasters in the Shimano range. Available in three different gear ratios, the lightweight magnesium body is equipped with advanced gear, drag and casting technology to meet the expectations of the most demanding anglers worldwide. Whilst the Antares can cast virtually any lure a long way, it truly comes into its own when fishing with finesse lures. If you need to cast ultra-light lures with pinpoint accuracy, this reel redefines the possibilities.
Finesse jigs, soft lures, Ned rigs and other finesse rigs? The Antares handles them all with ease. And when it’s time to send a crankbait or swimbait into the fray, the powerful gear system is ready to do its job. Whether you prioritise finesse or prefer an all-round approach, the Antares offers unrivalled versatility and precision with every cast. And if you hook a fish that’s bigger than expected, you can rely on the super-light Cross Carbon Drag to give you the precision and control you need to master any situation during the fight. The Antares owes its impressive casting performance to the state-of-the-art SVS Infinity drag system and the latest Magnumlite Spool (MGL IV).
The S3D-designed spool, crafted from Ultra Duralumin, utilises Silent Tune technology to reduce even the slightest vibrations. This means you can cast lighter lures with less effort and achieve greater distances. Inside the HAGANE body, a Micromodule gear system and X-SHIP ensure seamless smoothness and powerful cranking efficiency, whilst the Cross Carbon Drag heightens the thrill during the fight. With its modern look, feel and user-friendly handling, the Antares is a flagship baitcasting reel in every respect.
