If you are new to baitcasting, working with a small budget or want a cost effective second reel, you’ll be delighted with the performance you experience when using the Caius. Combining the finesse to fish effectively for smaller predators using small lures, with the strength to overcome larger powerful predators like big pike, the Caius is a reel that will improve your fishing performance and enjoyment in equal measures.
The body of the Caius is built from Shimano’s lightweight XT-7 composite, which is tough enough to overcome accidental knocks and bumps without adding excess weight. Equally important is the lightweight spool which is crafted from the same high quality aluminium used on much more expensive Shimano models. For inexperienced casters the VBS breaking system has an upgraded 6 pin design to help prevent over-runs and mishaps. Owning a Shimano reel is something to be proud of and many of the world’s best fishermen have started their journey with a reel like the Shimano Caius. If you are looking for a cost effective, versatile reel, the Caius offers a fantastic combination of performance and price.
