Shimano Ultegra 14000 XTE Spod Reel

This specialist spod reel is specifically designed to cope with the demands of modern long range spodding.

Based on the stunning feature packed Ultegra XTE 14000 fishing model, you can be sure that the Ultegra Spod has the performance, credibility and kudos required by serious carp anglers.

Tough, strong and fast (124cm per handle turn), the Ultegra Spod makes spodding easier, and has multiple line clips for clipping up at different ranges, enabling more spots to be covered with the same set-up.

Hidden inside the lightweight, rigid, Ci4+ body of the Ultegra XTE Spod is a selection of Shimano’s most advanced technology. HAGANE Gear and X-SHIP combine with Infinity Drive and Silent Drive to deliver amazing smoothness and lightweight rotation.

Whilst the internal engineering is a work of art that will cope with continuous spodding, it’s the casting performance that is extra special.

The Super Slow 5 Oscillation generates amazingly smooth line lay that is proven to reduce friction and increase casting potential, and Rigid Cast reduces spool deflection at the moment of release during a cast. Parallel Body sends the line at the perfect angle towards the first guide and as the line flows over the lip of the aluminium AR-C spool it ‘coils down’ to reduce friction. The result is casting brilliance never seen at such an affordable price.
