All this and more makes the Ultegra XR the perfect companion for all surf fishing enthusiasts. The Ultegra XR Big-Pit reel has been specially tailored to the needs of surf anglers and boasts a range of features that you’re sure to appreciate on your next fishing adventure.

These features work in perfect harmony to ensure smooth and powerful rotation, even under heavy strain during the fight. When it comes to casting distance, the Ultegra XR shines with Shimano’s cutting-edge technologies. Super Slow 5 Oscillation, Parallel Body and Rigid Cast improve casting distance and further optimise casting precision. This allows anglers to cast accurately to distant hotspots during surf fishing that cannot be reached with conventional reels. Furthermore, the Ultegra XR is equipped with X-Protect technology, making it suitable for use in all weather conditions. This innovative technology prevents water from entering the reel’s moving parts, thereby guaranteeing optimal performance.
For precise control whilst fishing, the Ultegra XR is fitted with a Hi-Speed Drag braking system. This can be tightened or loosened with a minimal turn of the drag knob, allowing you to maintain control at all times during the fight. In summary, the Ultegra XR XSD Big-Pit offers numerous advantages for surf fishing. From its robust construction and smooth gear system to its impressive casting distance and fighting performance, this Big-Pit reel is a reliable and powerful companion for all surf fishing adventures.

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.
