DESCRIPTION

New Shimano Tekota A Reel 500 or 600 Size – Saltwater Overhead Boat Fishing Reel
The Shimano Tekota A 500 or 600 overhead reel has had an upgrade, and it’s brilliant. Having already enjoyed a loyal following, the new version is certain to attract certified fans as well as a whole new following.
Always robust and versatile, the new Tekota has increased strength by 50%, reduced the size by 20% and retained the generous spool capacities and high cranking power. Many will suggest that the best inclusion is Coreprotect which helps towards keeping the salt water out and that is critical if you want to get a longer life from your investment. With less worry surrounding salt water ingress, your Tekota will perform at peak for countless sessions.
The S-Compact body in tandem with the Hagane body has allowed for the significant reduction in reel size. Larger gears were added which has increased strength by a whopping 50%. Your new Shimano Tekota Reel will now stand up to the serious challenges from the likes of Tuna and Kingfish.
While mono line is fine for the traditionalist, braids allow you to maximise performance. The classic star drag delivers fingertip drag control, and the handle is made for cranking challenging loads. With 11kg of drag and 330 yards of 65 pound line, there’s little in the ocean you can’t point your Tekota at, confident of a win.
Troll or cast at the biggest Barra in the north. Shoot lures into the wash just outside the heads for serious Kingfish action. If your seeking a mega Murray Cod, rig up the biggest swim bait you have and work a spot patiently for a record specimen or just head out on the boat for a casual bottom bash with bait.

Shimano Tekota A Buyers Guide
The new Tekota A Reel is compact so whilst traditionally an offshore saltwater boat fishing reel it’s compactness could allow for multiple inshore options as well, such as barra and murray cod fishing. Your choice will simply boil down to what line capacities you need or prefer and how heavy you fish when deciding between the size models we have for sale. The 600 is slightly bigger and holds a decent line capacity especially braid.
These are an overhead reel which means they will require an overhead rod to match. If fishing for murray cod you’ll need a pretty heavy swimbait rod since for cod these are on the very large spectrum in terms of reel size but otherwise for offshore, your conventional saltwater offshore boat rod in around 5-7ft overhead style will be fine with either size reel in the series. The heaviness of the rod will be determined by the line class you use.
If you need a hand in choosing a fishing rod to match the new Tekota A Reel then simply touch base with our team and we will provide a few options for you.
