Description

Need your reel spooled? The Shimano Tranx 400 B is the latest iteration in the legendary Tranx family, a powerhouse low-profile baitcasting reel built for throwing big baits, at the most hardcore fish that swim. CoreSolid and HAGANE Body technologies deliver unmatched rigidity and flex-free cranking, ideal for heavy loads. SVS Infinity MD Tune braking offers precise control for casting heavy baits. X-Ship boosts gear durability and casting distance, while Cross Carbon Drag ensures smooth, reliable performance. The S3D Spool tech minimizes vibration for ultra-smooth retrieves, ideal for long days on the water. Versatile across salt and freshwater applications, the redesigned Tranx 400 B is a vital tool in the pursuit of trophies.

Field Notes

Use this low-profile baitcasting reel for casting and retrieving heavy lures (including large glide baits and paddle-tail swimbaits) when targeting trophy-class fish. Pair it with a suitable rod and line for freshwater or saltwater applications, adjusting braking for the lure weight to minimize backlash.

Pros

  • Rigid CoreSolid/HAGANE body for heavy loads and flex-free cranking
  • SVS Infinity MD Tune braking for precise control with heavy baits
  • Cross Carbon drag for smooth, durable performance
  • X-Ship reduces friction for improved casting distance

Cons

  • Requires proper setup (brake/line/lure matching) to fully realize backlash control
