Shimano Sustain FJ Spinning Reel

Introduction

Features:

• The Shimano Sustain FJ is the newly redesigned freshwater and inshore spinning reel from Shimano.
• The Sustain FJ features the Hagane body construction, whose rigid body eliminates body flexing and results in cranking power and efficiency through strength.
• The internals of the Shimano Sustain FJ are also constructed with the Hagane Gearing, whose claim to fame is precision fabrication, meaning things just perfectly fit together for smoothness, versus the grinding and cutting of lesser reels.
• The Sustain FJ is equipped with a Water Resistant Drag. Rubber gaskets keep water, dust and salt out of the drag, so it performs when needed in freshwater and inshore. Be sure to rinse down your reel after fishing in the salt!
• X-Protect water resistance protects your reel, combining a water-repellent coating and a water-channeling construction, your Sustain FJ has durability in tough conditions.

Strong yet sensitive aren’t words typically defining an aesthetic show-stopper like the Shimano Sustain FJ Spinning Reel. But they do illustrate the newly-redesigned Sustain series of spinning reels built to conquer the toughest inshore or freshwater species. One of the strongest in the MagnumLite series of spinning reels, Shimano engineered the Sustain FJ with a redesigned MagnumLite (MGL) Rotor for light start-up rotation and faster hooksets with increased sensitivity. The increased strength of an Aluminum HAGANE Body reduces reel flex when winding against hard-fighting game fish. Lighter than its predecessor, the Sustain now features Long Stroke Spool to provide anglers with improved casting distance. MicroModule II gearing combined with Shimano’s HAGANE Gear and SilentDrive technologies offer anglers smooth reeling performance. Sure to turn heads and incite envy from other anglers, the Sustain provides anglers the sensitivity and quick hook-setting performance needed to hook and turn a fish in the heaviest of cover.
