SHIMANO double shaft reel 24 Barchetta Premium! ! Wrap comfortably and create a fall at will. Barchetta Premium, a lightweight reel with a counter equipped with micro module gear, HAGANE body and X-SHIP, provides smooth winding comfort and rigidity, has been further updated. Equipped with a NEW fall lever equipped with a one-way roller bearing that does not make the handle rotation heavy even when braking, it enables a wide range of precise fall speed adjustment without spoiling the winding comfort for metal sutte, cutlassfish, flounder, hitotto tenya, sea bream rubber, SLJ, etc. where slow fall is effective. In addition to the NEW line counter with improved visibility, the winding distance alarm that sounds every set distance allows you to know the distance from the start of winding with your ears, so you can know the angle without taking your eyes off the tip. Both single and double handles are 60mm long. A significant weight reduction compared to the previous model has also been achieved using CI4+ materials. Precisely control the fall. The so-called fall attack and invitation are important factors not only in metal sutte games but also in various types of fishing. Depending on the target, this may be considered as important or even more important than luring. The NEW fall lever makes it possible to freely adjust and reproduce the fall speed without putting stress on the feel of the handle. Equipped with a one-way roller bearing, it has an innovative structure that does not cause heavy rotation in the winding direction, and even when the fall lever is tightened, the handle does not become heavy in winding, achieving stable reeling that is not affected by fall speed. Furthermore, the lever itself is designed to have a wide shape, with a recess on the top surface, making it easier to place your finger on the lever in either the raised or lowered position, improving operability. In addition, the viewing angle has been widened, and the counter is equipped with new functions such as a winding distance alarm, and the reproducibility of hit patterns is improved by understanding fall speed and hit range. Lighter operability due to weight reduction of over 30g compared to the previous model. By reviewing the weight down to the details, starting with the side plate part that has been updated to CI4+, we have succeeded in significantly reducing the overall weight by over 30g (*) even though it is a HAGANE body. Combined with a low profile body design that is easy to grip, it provides light operability. *Comparison with previous model *Special 60mm long handle. The 150 and 151 are equipped with a cold forged 60mm power handle with excellent rigidity, and the 150DHXG, 151DHXG, 150DH, and 151DH are equipped with a 60mm long double handle, which is the longest Shimano double handle model. Combined with a large knob that can be gripped firmly in the palm of your hand, it improves reeling stability and reduces angler fatigue during long fishing sessions. It supports stable and powerful winding without losing power even when using heavy metal suttes and weights or fighting with large blue objects. The hoisting distance alarm supports an efficient approach. The hoisting distance alarm newly installed on the Barchetta Premium is a new feature that detects the hoisting distance without looking at the water depth display on the counter. Measurement starts from the moment the winding begins after hitting the bottom. It makes a sound up to 3 times in multiples of the set distance, so you can tell the hoisting distance without looking at the counter. For example, in the case of the 5m setting (A-5), a total of 3 notification sounds will sound every 5m from the bottom to 15m to notify the angler of the reeling distance. This function makes it possible to make intuitive judgments based on hearing, without having to look at the counter, in response to the captain's commands such as ``Response at ○m from the bottom'' or ``Raise ○m when you hit the bottom.'' This is a new function that increases your concentration on the instructions when winding up from the bottom. Learn how to wind a thread more easily. Thread winding learning is a function that stores the relationship between spool rotation and line winding amount in the digital counter, and uses this relationship to display water depth. In addition to the learning function of the conventional model, it is equipped with training data for PE 0.6/0.8/1.0/1.2/1.5, which are frequently used in this size. Regardless of the amount of underwinding, as long as the specified thread is wound to a position approximately 1mm from the spool's outer diameter, it can be used within a sufficient margin of error for practical purposes. *Precautions for use* The specified thread learning value is the standard learning value when the specified thread (Shimano PE line) is wound, including the lower winding line, to a position approximately 1 mm from the outermost diameter of the spool. Accuracy may decrease depending on the type of thread you actually wind, line tension, and outer diameter after winding. If you want more accurate accuracy, please study in E1, E2, L1, and L2 modes. This is a reel that I would recommend to everyone who wants to enjoy the light game of ships. Among the features that have evolved with this model change, the first feature that you can experience and utilize during actual fishing is the NEW fall lever. The fall lever is a mechanism that allows you to easily adjust the fall speed by operating the lever, but in the past, the brake would affect the winding of the handle, so for example, if you were using a metal sutte with a weight of 20 to 40 and you set the fall speed to slow, the winding would also become heavier, so you had to return the lever every time you turned it in. Because the NEW fall lever does not interfere with the winding of the handle, it is now possible to reel while setting the fall speed. This is quite comfortable, and can be widely used for all types of fishing, such as to prevent backlash when inserting hairtail and light horse mackerel, and to prevent line dandruff during fast tides. Another thing you will notice right away when you start fishing is that the handle length has been increased to 60mm, making it easier to reel in all situations, such as retrieving heavy tackle, attracting bait, and interacting with large fish. Also, although it may not be obvious at first glance, the inclusion of a hoisting distance alarm is a big advantage. For example, if you set the alarm to sound when the winding is 10 meters, when you are concentrating on the attracting movements of a cutlass or other fish and searching for the tanna, the sound will notify you how long you have invited the fish, so you can concentrate and search for the tanna efficiently, and you can also get a feel for the speed of your own temptation. In terms of hairtail fish, Osaka Bay tends to attract a wide range of tanagers, while Tokyo Bay tends to attract a narrow range of tanagers, so I think being able to change the distance at which you want the alarm to sound is also an effective feature. Also, the ease of viewing the counter is a practical benefit. The new Barchetta Premium has evolved significantly with these enhanced features and specifications, but you will also be surprised at how much lighter it is than its predecessor. Barchetta Premium is a brother model to Engetsu Premium and Grappler Premium, but while Engetsu specializes in Tairaba and Grappler has light jigging, Barchetta Premium can be said to be a multi-purpose reel that can be used for a variety of fishing. It can be used not only for metal sutte, cutlassfish, and light horse mackerel, but also for blacktail and light jigging, so this reel is recommended for everyone who wants to enjoy light games on boats.
