Shimano Tiagra Conventional Two-Speed

The Shimano Tiagra Conventional Two-Speed Reels is engineered for anglers who demand strength, reliability, and performance in offshore conditions. Designed for serious big game fishing, the Shimano Tiagra A Series reels are trusted by professionals worldwide to handle tuna, marlin, and other powerful species.

Each reel is crafted from a one-piece machined aircraft-grade aluminum frame, providing exceptional rigidity and eliminating flex under heavy pressure. The cold-forged aluminum spool resists corrosion and delivers long-lasting durability—ideal for extended use in saltwater.

At the heart of the Shimano Tiagra A Series is a two-speed stainless steel gearing system that allows effortless switching between high-speed retrieves and low-speed torque. Whether you’re quickly gaining line or applying steady pressure, these reels adapt to the fight instantly.

The hydrothermal drag system ensures consistent drag pressure throughout prolonged battles. Combined with sealed, pre-lubricated drag washers, it offers smooth, dependable control while preventing saltwater intrusion and wear.

Handle design is model-specific: smaller models feature Shimano’s ergonomic power handle for added grip and torque, while larger reels like the 30WLRS, 50WLRS, 80W, and 130A are equipped with elastomere crank handles for comfort during long fights. The 16A model also includes a Twin Disk Drag System to enhance stopping power and heat resistance.

With A-RB (Anti-Rust Bearings) offering 10 times more corrosion resistance than standard bearings, and a built-in 89 dB ratchet alarm that won’t let you miss a strike, every component of the Shimano Tiagra A Series is built for peak offshore performance.

For anglers targeting giants of the sea, the Shimano Tiagra A Series delivers the muscle, smoothness, and control you need to win the battle.
