TORIUM OVERHEADS
For high speed spinning, jigging, or any fishing situation where the ability
to recover line in a hurry is important, Shimano's new Torium range of overheads
will certainly fit the bill.
A 6.2:1 gear ratio will really bring out the best in metal jigs and lures
that require a good turn of speed to get working, while an oversize clicker
mechanism means that this reel can also be used for bait fishing if need
be.
The TOR 16 holds 320 metres of ten kilo, the TOR 20 420 metres of ten
kilo, and the TOR 30 350 metres
of fifteen kilo, so they're no-nonsense reels built for hard work and
big fish.
The multi-washer star drag makes use of Shimano's high performance Dartanium
washers, which means the Toriums will comfortably handle the fastest runs
from mackerel, kingfish, wahoo and tuna.
A die-cast aluminium reel frame, and aluminium side plates and spool
means that the entire Torium range make superb casting reels, and thanks
to their lightweight, endless hours of repetitive casting is not a problem.
Super Stopper and Assist Stopper remove any back play in the handle,
while three of Shimano's patented A-RB bearings keeps everything turning
smoothly.
These A-RB (anti-rust) bearings are treated with a special coating that
makes them ten times more resistant to corrosion than standard stainless
ball bearings.
And like all reels in the Shimano lineup, the Torium range is covered
by an unprecedented ten year warranty.
