Shimano Spinning reel Ultegra ULTC5000XGFC
The spinning reel ULTEGRA is the ultimate evolution of one of Shimano's most popular mid-priced reels. The ULTEGRA is now equipped with many of the features of top-of-the-line SHIMANO reels, such as the Stella, and defies production reality with its superior price/performance ratio. HAGANE Gear, MicroModule II, X-Ship and Silent Drive guarantee sensational line lay and smooth running - even under load. X-Protect protects the line roller and the backstop from water penetration, contributing to durability and impeccable performance. For maximum casting distances, the Ultegra was equipped with a Long Stroke Spool with AR-C spool design, which allows the line to fly freely off the reel during the cast. The Ci4+ body has kept weight to a minimum for long, fatigue-free fishing. XG models with round crank knob

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.
