SHIMANO TORSA 30 WMS White Marlin Special

FEATURES:
Shimano Torsa WMS conventional fishing reel VERY RARE MODEL
The Torsa features an oversized sideplate and spool. The handle side of the spool is actually larger than the clicker side
This reel is 22% larger than the Trinidad drive gear and 67% larger than the venerated TLD 25.
Super Stopper one-way roller bearing with Assist Stopper back-up ratchet anti-reverse system. The system has no back play for solid hook setting power and the reliability of two anti-reverse systems.
The oversized drag washer, can generate incredible drag pressures for a reel its size, and is created using the same proven material used in” the Tiagra series of 2-Speed lever drag reels.
Cold Forged Aluminum spool. The overall weight of the spool was drastically reduced to lower the startup inertia.
The handle side of the spool is taller than the non-handle side. This extended spool lip gives the angler a very consistent surface to thumb during the cast. All of which results in a superior more manageable cast.
The Torsa comes equipped with the W.M.S. (White Marlin Special) Rapid Fire Drag Cam, which was made popular by reels in our Tiagra line. There are 7 other cams available at your Torsa retailer depending upon your target fisheries. Each of these cams dial in a specific drag curve to match your intended application.
Extra large power handle with extra stealth gold anodized aluminum offset arm and extra large black knob.
