The 18 Ryoga HL offers Japanese reel design at highest standards. The Ryoga is considerably stronger, more sensitive and more durable than the previous edition.
By downsizing the teeth in the driving wheel the novel Detective Rotation design increases the contact surface of driving wheel and Pinion Gear by factor 1.5. This cares for an even smoother running and up to now unknown sensitivity – you realize the lure action and even softest taps drastically better and can react accordingly.
The ATD drag works without high starting resistance and offers huge advantages, which reduce losses especially when using thin braided lines. The double stopper is a combination of an Infinite system and an additional mechanical stopper – perfect, when you are fishing at changing temperatures or at cold conditions. Thanks to the application of a MagSealed ball bearing and 11 CRBB the Ryoga HL is suited for the use in freshwater and at sea fishing.
