Shimano 2021 Ocea Jigger 1500 Series Jigging Reel

Both the No. 1500 and No. 2000 handle knobs are equipped with the T-shaped handle knob used on the [19 OCEA JIGGER F CUSTOM]. The lightweight, easy-to-grip, and easy-to-apply shape can easily handle high loads in mid- to deep-sea fishing, including bluefish, further reducing the burden on the angler.
*Adopted for 1500XG/1501XG, 2000NRMG/2001NRMG, 2000NRXG/2001NRXG.

Up to approx. 200% higher rigidity

A highly rigid and strong cold-forged long crank handle is standard. The hard and sturdy handle body is approximately twice as rigid as conventional handles, and the synergistic effect with the HAGANE body enables direct reeling performance with no power loss.

Highly rigid clutch lever with improved operability

The clutch section features a newly shaped clutch lever that is cold-forged and beaten to achieve not only a high quality feel but also operability that surpasses that of previous models.

Large-diameter gears boasting toughness

The large-diameter drive gear, which supports the drive unit, is made of ultra-high-strength brass material and designed to be massive and highly precise. There is no compromise in strength.

Special surface treatment improves durability

In the NEW OCEA JIGGER, the pinion gear has been given a special surface treatment to improve salt resistance. This greatly contributes to improved clutch durability.

Internal parts with high strength & corrosion resistance

Stainless steel material with excellent rigidity and corrosion resistance is used in every corner of the washers and other internal parts. Durability is carried through to every detail.

The front portion of the clutch side provides space for thumbing. Smooth access from the clutch operation for fluid control.

A space is provided in front of the perming side to control the fall with the index finger. This allows for thumbing without disrupting the palming.

The spool edges are asymmetrically designed. Each is shaped for easy operation from the body’s thumbing space. The pursuit of usability down to the smallest detail raises the level of fishing.

Newly shaped mechanical brake knob

The mechanical brake knob, which is important for adjusting fall speed, has a larger diameter to make it easier to pick up and operate with the thumb. The synergistic effect with the thumbing space controls the fall.

Silky drag performance is also reliable when using fine threads.

Good or bad drag performance is an important point in today’s jigging, where light lines are increasingly used. The structure of the star drag smoothly changes in accordance with the angle of rotation of the drag, allowing for fine-tuning and a firm drag setting. This allows anglers to fight with confidence even when a large fish hits with a fine line.

CARBON CROSS WASHER is used for both good sliding performance and high durability. It contributes to silky drag performance.

Designed not only for easy rotation, but also to prevent line pickup at the tip. This reduces line tangling problems in crosswind conditions, allowing anglers to concentrate on fishing without stress.

A mechanism that completely locks the spool and locks reversal. This mechanism provides peace of mind in the event of root entrapment.

The spool can be easily replaced by simply removing the bolt using the supplied wrench. *There is no spool compatibility between the XG model and models with other gear ratios.
