TICA IRON CLAW

Tica Iron Claw is a high-grade, heavy-duty overhead reel purposely engineered to withstand the extreme punishing forces of offshore trolling and big game fishing. Built to challenge the ocean's hardest fighters, this series features a one-piece full aluminum frame providing massive structural rigidity. This armored housing completely neutralizes body twisting and flexing under maximum load, keeping the internal heavy-duty gears in perfect mesh and alignment during grueling, long-lasting battles with large pelagic predators.

The core strength of the Iron Claw lies within its elite drag matrix: the micrometric Lever Drag system works in perfect unison with Dual Drag System technology. By applying balanced pressure to both sides of the spool, this dual-disc design cuts friction heat in half and ensures an ultra-smooth, stutter-free line release, eliminating sudden spikes that could snap your leader. Internal rotation is sustained by 6 shielded stainless steel ball bearings and a roller bearing, fully isolated by the Waterproof Device barrier to deny saltwater access to the gear train.

Key Features & Hardware

• Full Aluminum Body: Aircraft-grade machined aluminum frame and sideplates delivering ultimate structural defense against flex and brine corrosion.

• Dual Drag Lever Matrix: Dual-disc layout paired with a precision lever control for highly accurate brake adjustments and seamless pressure curve progression.

• Anti-Skid Spool Surface: Specially textured inner spool core featuring a non-slip finish, engineered to anchor braided lines and prevent the entire line capacity from spinning under heavy tension.

• Multi Anti-Reverse System: Reinforced multi-point anti-reverse mechanism that fully erases backplay on the handle, securing instant hook penetration and direct power transmission.

• Ergonomic Power Handle: Heavy-duty drive arm outfitted with an oversized anatomical knob, tailored to optimize physical leverage when winching up stubborn deep-water game.

• Waterproof Device Shield: Advanced rubber sealing layout surrounding critical entry points to protect internal mechanics from moisture and high-salinity marine air.

Sizes & Recommended Uses

• Offshore Trolling & Bluefin Drifting: Available in tailored IC20 and IC25 sizes, both optimized with a high-torque, low-gear ratio of 3.8:1 backed by a massive 16 kg (35 lbs) max drag. It represents the perfect asset for live-bait trolling targeting Amberjack and Dentex, as well as chunking/drifting setups for giant Bluefin Tuna.
