The New Shimano SLX DC XT baitcasting reel is the top model of the hugely popular SLX series. Featuring Shimano's most advanced I-DC5 Intelligent Digital Control braking system and a low inertia MGL III spool, it maximizes casting performance on lures of all sizes, including ultralight sizes. If you want the frankness that a baitcasting reel offers, combined with the ease of casting and versatility of a spinning reel, the SLX DC XT should be at the top of your list. Perfectly capable of casting a wide variety of lures, this technical masterpiece has hidden versatility and really stands out with lighter lures, allowing for easy and accurate casting to rival specialized BFS (Bait Finesse System) reels. At the heart of the extraordinary launch versatility is a combination of the low inertia MGL III voice coil and the I-DC5 digital launch control. The spool is ultralight, and when loaded with braid or lighter mono, it rotates with a silky smoothness and ease to maximize distance. But the real secret is the unique I-DC5 system. This allows you to set the casting brake for the type of line you are using and also the size of the lure, from large fineness to ultra-light (more and without additional friction) offering fantastic automatic casting control, with no hassle taking turns of a quadrant. Inside the aluminum HAGANE body (with ultra light CI4 + side plates), there is a combination of Micro Module Gear and X-SHIP. This produces the unmistakable softness associated with Shimano Baitcasting reels and enough power to take on the largest of freshwater predators. The easy-to-adjust star clutch has crossed carbon drag washers, which ensure that when it's time to apply additional pressure you'll never feel out of control. From ultralight lures to swimming lures and mid-sized crankbaits, the SLX DC XT is a true all-rounder.
