The ULTEGRA benefits from exclusive technologies usually found only in Shimano’s high-end models, without breaking the bank. Whether you’re a dedicated angler or a self-confessed enthusiast looking for a quality upgrade for your reel, the ULTEGRA offers a rare combination of performance, durability and affordability. If you’re looking for an elegant and high-performance reel that’s also available at an affordable price, then the ULTEGRA is an irresistible upgrade.
With its elegant design and understated look, the ULTEGRA exudes style whilst offering advanced technology normally reserved for Shimano’s top-of-the-range reels such as the Stella – all at a price that’s almost too good to be true. As a proud member of Shimano’s Coresolid family, the ULTEGRA FC combines durability with refined elegance. This means it is up to any challenge you throw at it, particularly when fishing with powerful lures. Its robustness, combined with Shimano’s signature smoothness and reliability, makes the ULTEGRA the ideal choice for anglers who want to experience premium features in a beautifully crafted mid-range reel. The ULTEGRA is packed with Shimano’s top technologies such as HAGANE Gear, Micro Module II, X-SHIP, Silent Drive, INFINITYXROSS and INFINITYDRIVE, all perfectly housed in a durable, lightweight CI4+ body.
This combination ensures powerful and silky-smooth reel performance that remains surprisingly smooth even under load. X-Protect offers exceptional water resistance, making the ULTEGRA versatile enough for light rock fishing, saltwater fishing with sea bass lures and, of course, all freshwater applications. The Long Stroke AR-C spool increases casting distance, whilst the ANTI-TWIST fin ensures excellent line management and prevents the line from wrapping around the bail during slack-line techniques. With its advanced technology and a design that pairs superbly with a wide variety of rods, the ULTEGRA is a revolution in affordable top-tier technology, consistently impressing and delivering reliable performance across a multitude of fishing situations.

Safety instructions:
“ - Handle hooks with care: Always cover the fishing hooks or remove them from the rods for transportation. Use corks or hook covers to avoid accidental injury.
- Keep your distance: Fish at least 10 meters away from others to avoid accidents. Watch out for people behind you before casting. Be careful with carbon fiber: Carbon fiber rods are strong but can be brittle. Avoid dropping them or banging them against hard surfaces as this can cause damage.
- Safe transportation: Always take your rod apart and place it in a protective cover during transportation to prevent damage from external influences.
- Carbon fiber rods conduct electricity. Do not use them during thunderstorms or near power lines.
- Never try to pull lures or leaders out of trees or bushes by applying pressure to the rod and fishing line. This can result in the bait/lead being catapulted towards the angler. Use only your hands to free the bait/lead.
- Train beginners: Instruct children and beginners in the safe handling of rods and hooks to minimize risks.
- Safety distance: Always keep a distance of at least six meters from high-voltage power lines when carrying or using fishing rods.
- Avoid high sticking: Do not bend your rod too much while you are drilling a fish, which is known as “high sticking. Hold the rod at a maximum loading angle of 45 to 60 degrees to avoid breakage.
- Aligning the rod for snags: If your lure snags, keep the rod pointed at the hook while walking backwards to reduce the strain on the rod.
- Be careful with carbon fiber: Carbon fiber rods are strong but can be brittle. Avoid dropping them or banging them against hard surfaces as this can cause damage.
- Safe transportation: Always take your rod apart and place it in a protective cover during transportation to prevent damage from external influences.
