Shimano Calcutta Conquest MD Baitcasting Reels

Elevate confidence on the water with the all-new Calcutta Conquest MD 300 & 400 lineup of reels. Shimano engineered these technology-packed offerings for large swimbait anglers looking for power and dependability when targeting trophy-caliber fish with lures that can exceed 10-plus ounces. The revolutionary SVS MD Tune Braking system provides anglers maximum adjustability when tossing large glide baits or paddle tail swimbaits and minimizing backlashes in harsh conditions. Now featuring a long-handle design combined with Shimano's Infinity Drive technology, the Calcutta Conquest MD 300 & 400 series provides anglers increased winding power under load when coming tight on a trophy catch. Not limited to bass or muskie fishing, the Calcutta Conquest MD features Shimano's X-Protect technology for increased durability in saltwater when chasing nearshore game fish. Tie on a big bait and know you have confidence in the all-new Calcutta Conquest MD.

Technologies:

• Infinity Drive technology is an advanced structure that produces more powerful and exceptionally light winding within conventional and low-profile reels. This innovative design supports the pinion gear with the spool shaft rather than supporting the pinion gear with a bearing on the spool side. Infinity Drive within low-profile and conventional reels also optimizes the support distance and pinion gear thickness to achieve high support rigidity so that anglers can actively wind under heavy loads without compromising gear strength.
• Exciting Drag Sound technology enables drag sound on a baitcasting reel without using the function of a rattle or clicker. This ultimately makes it easy for an angler to determine whether a fish is pulling drag and provides an advantage during the fight.
• S-Compact Body allows for all-day comfort and improved fishability by making the palming side plate up to 25% smaller than the A-Side plate.
• HAGANE is a Shimano reel design concept created to withstand continual use and extreme abuse. HAGANE is an innovation with built-in toughness and durability that works alongside Shimano's precision engineering. HAGANE is for all anglers.
• S3D technology leads to significantly reduced spool vibration. By designing and constructing a balanced and uniform thin-wall aluminum spool, S3D creates an incredibly smooth feeling when casting and retrieving lures.
• S A-RB bearings are put through the same process as Shimano’s A-RB bearings but feature shields on both sides of the bearings. These shields reduce the possibility of salt or sand inhibiting rotation of the bearing.
• SThe Cross Carbon Drag material provides a wider range of drag settings compared to traditional drag materials. The Cross Carbon Drag provides the smoothest Shimano drag performance ever while providing anglers with increased durability.
• The HAGANE Body is a metal reel body with high rigidity. The body rigidity and impact resistance virtually eliminates body flexing on the reel while fighting fish. The result transforms the angler's actions directly into cranking power, increasing efficiency through strength.
• The MicroModule Gear system creates a smooth retrieve by utilizing smaller teeth to increase the number of contact points between the drive gear and pinion gear. Ultimately, this produces a more efficient gear train with less of a gear feel.
• By applying slight pressure to the bearing holding the spool, SilentTune reduces the vibration of the bearing during high-speed rotation. This improves the quietness while casting and the rise of the spool rotation becomes even smoother.
• X PROTECT provides high-level water resistance to the inside bearing of drive gear shaft with waterproof construction.
