About this piece

The Shimano 22 SLX DC XT 70XG is a technical baitcasting reel engineered for exceptional casting performance and seamless backlash control.

  • Micro Module Gear system provides silky-smooth and powerful retrieve
  • X-Ship gearing layout enhances rigidity and cranking efficiency under load
  • S A-RB shielded bearings resist corrosion, ideal for saltwater use
