The evolution of Shimano’s legendary Ocea Jigger reel lineup continues with the launch of the new Ocea Jigger 2500 LD, designed to provide fishing enthusiasts with an even more versatile tool for tackling deeper waters and larger catches. The lever drag system allows for easy and consistent adjustments, ensuring stable performance even under high drag conditions, with a maximum capacity of 20 kg of drag. Thanks to Shimano’s Infinity Drive technology, the new drag system increases pulling power while simultaneously reducing side pressure, delivering up to 30% smoother and lighter rotation, even during the most demanding battles. The Ocea Jigger 2500 LD is available in two gear ratios — MG (5.7:1) and HG (6.2:1) — to best suit different jigging needs. With a retrieval speed of 119 cm per crank, the HG version allows for quick recovery from the depths, making it ideal for precise lure presentations in deep waters. The MG version, on the other hand, is perfect for fishing up to 45 meters or in scenarios where greater drag strength and winding power are essential. The Ocea Jigger 2500 LD is also an excellent reel for trolling.

Finally available the new Ocea Jigger F Custom in size 2000. The new reel for vertical fishing from the boat Ocea Jigger F Custom 2001NRHG thanks to the special lever, is able to control with greater precision the fall of the jig towards the bottom, allowing the fisherman to better spot the bites that may arrive while the jig is coming down. The reel knob has also been redesigned to ensure a firmer and more comfortable grip. In addition, Infinity Drive and Micromodule Gear II increase the fluidity of the reel.

The New Shimano Ocea Jigger F Custom 1501 HG finally has the drop lever! With the drop lever, anglers can now control the drop action of the lure without having to monitor the drop rate, allowing the angler to focus on the fishing action. The grip knob has also been redesigned to be lighter and give a better grip during recovery. Rounding out the drop lever are Infinity Drive and Micromodule Gear II to provide a smooth recovery experience.

The new ‘17 Ocea Jigger has made an extreme make-over compared to the beloved ‘11Ocea Jigger. This flagship of jigging reels comes with all exciting features like the Infinity Drive and Micro Module Gear, which results in 60% reduction of the reeling resistance compared to the old model and a very smooth retrieve. The newly designed handle is especially designed to provide a firm grip and the ability to give extra power without losing grip. The combination of the Hagane body and S-compact body results in an immensely strong and though lightweight (595g) jigging reel. Due to the 8 Shielded A-RB ball bearings and X-Protect it is highly salt water resistible and durable. The ‘17 Ocea jigger will be available in two different versions; the PG version with 5,1:1 gearing (96cm/crank) and the HG version with 6;2:1 gearing (117cm/crank) and both in left or right handed version. With a drag of 10kg, fighting the biggest fish is not a problem anymore. So taking all the new features into account, the new ‘17 Ocea Jigger is just the must-have for all serious anglers who love to go out jigging on the ocean. When targeting big amberjack or dentex in Italy or massive cod or halibut in the northern of Norway, the ‘17 Ocea Jigger is the partner you can fully rely on, day in day out.
