The SHIMANO Aldebaran redefines the lightweight, compact low profile baitcasting reel category. Weighing in at a mere 4.7oz., Aldebaran delivers unmatched smoothness and precision with S3D, SVS Infinity and new SilentTune technologies. While Aldebaran is light in weight, it is by no means a lightweight when it comes to durability in the most demanding fishing environments. This reel is equipped with the X-SHIP gearing system and is housed in an electro-coated magnesium frame allowing the reels to subdue bass in the heaviest cover - as well as redfish on the saltwater flats. Aldebaran excels at fishing jerkbaits, light crankbaits and a variety of finesse baits. If you desire the ultimate in lightweight and compact performance, look no further than the Aldebaran baitcasting reels.
