THE most noticeable change on the new Shimano Trinidad A is the shift from classic gold to anodised silver, including a distinctive black and white handle assembly.
To complement the new modern appearance, Shimano has also incorporated a host of new features and upgrades that will once again set the standard for conventional jigging and sportfishing anglers alike.
The A series is now significantly lighter than its predecessor, made possible by a new Magnumlite spool design. A reduced frame size provides increased performance in a smaller package, without the loss of line capacity. A floating spool design equates to easier winding under load and superior free-spooling capabilities. New cross carbon Dartainium II drag washers continue the tradition of silky smooth yet powerful drags and dual anti-reverse dogs mean that the Trinidad can handle more load and bigger fish than ever before. An E.I. proprietary surface treatment provides one the most resistant and effective anti-corrosion treatments available on any reel today. Other technologies include Super Stopper and Super Free spool.
The Trinidad A series is the complete package well suited to any big Saltwater game pursuits, whether it be jigging, casting or trolling with braided and mono lines.
