Shimano Feeder reel Aero BB
The Aero BB is a great value front drag reel that offers versatile performance for float and feeder anglers, and is fitted with an anti-reverse facility. The understated graphics fit perfectly with many Shimano rods, especially the Aero float and feeder rods.If you are a match or pleasure angler looking for the best quality while working with a tight budget, the extremely affordable Aero BB reel is a great option and includes an anti-reverse facility for playing fish by back winding. Available in three sizes (3000, 4000 and 5000) to cover most float fishing situations, and ideal for light to heavy feeder fishing for larger fish like carp and bream, this reel range balances perfectly with the Aero X1 and Aero X3 rod ranges. Feeder anglers will also appreciate the easy to use round metal line clip, which is perfect for accurate casting. Inside the sleek XT-7 G Free body of the Aero BB is Shimano’s top rated Cold Forged Hagane Gear and X-Ship system. This combination is renowned for powerful efficient winding and long lasting reliability, ensuring your reel will maintain its peak performance almost indefinitely. Other features that standout are the AR-C Spool crafted from Cold Forged Aluminium for improved casting and line management, plus a handle that screws straight into the main gear for ‘play-free’ directness. And if all of these features aren’t enough to convince you about the quality and unrivalled value of the Aero BB, each model comes with a line reducer to reduce the spool capacity of the reel, making all models perfect for both mono and braided lines.

Safety instructions:
“ - Handle hooks with care: Always cover the fishing hooks or remove them from the rods for transportation. Use corks or hook covers to avoid accidental injury.
- Keep your distance: Fish at least 10 meters away from others to avoid accidents. Watch out for people behind you before casting. Be careful with carbon fiber: Carbon fiber rods are strong but can be brittle. Avoid dropping them or banging them against hard surfaces as this can cause damage.
- Safe transportation: Always take your rod apart and place it in a protective cover during transportation to prevent damage from external influences.
- Carbon fiber rods conduct electricity. Do not use them during thunderstorms or near power lines.
- Never try to pull lures or leaders out of trees or bushes by applying pressure to the rod and fishing line. This can result in the bait/lead being catapulted towards the angler. Use only your hands to free the bait/lead.
- Train beginners: Instruct children and beginners in the safe handling of rods and hooks to minimize risks.
- Safety distance: Always keep a distance of at least six meters from high-voltage power lines when carrying or using fishing rods.
- Avoid high sticking: Do not bend your rod too much while you are drilling a fish, which is known as “high sticking. Hold the rod at a maximum loading angle of 45 to 60 degrees to avoid breakage.
- Aligning the rod for snags: If your lure snags, keep the rod pointed at the hook while walking backwards to reduce the strain on the rod.
- Be careful with carbon fiber: Carbon fiber rods are strong but can be brittle. Avoid dropping them or banging them against hard surfaces as this can cause damage.
- Safe transportation: Always take your rod apart and place it in a protective cover during transportation to prevent damage from external influences.
