General Specifications
About the Product
The new CoreSolid Body design combines multiple parts and integrates the B-side, frame and levelwind guard into a single aluminum piece with unmatched solidity. This full aluminum construction will give anglers the rigid feeling of a round reel, with the ergonomics and comfort of a low profile reel.
The use of a lightweight CI4+ frame and an newly designed Magnumlite spool make the Chronarch MGL the perfect baitcasting reel for serious bass and predator anglers. Lighter and more advanced than ever before, its CI4+ construction in combination with the new Magnumlite spool has enabled Shimano to reduce its overall weight.
