The new Shimano Twin Power FD<\/a> Reel series is now available in five sizes, everything from 1000 up to 5000. The Shimano Twin Power FD<\/a> is replacing our Shimano Twin Power XD line here in the US, and it\u2019s packed with a host of flagship features. Most notably, the new micro module gear 2 feature, which is something Shimano released in the Shimano Stella FJ<\/a> in 2022, trickled all the way down the Shimano Stradic FL<\/a> as well.<\/p>\n

A couple of additional features are XProtect water resistance, which has the labyrinth construction, and the line roller and roller clutch combined with water-repellent spray. That kind of funnels waters away from those key wear-out parts, making it an incredibly durable reel. Featuring our Hagane body, as with a lot of our high-end reels and Shimano\u2019s Hagane gear technology.<\/p>\n
