The Shimano
Calcutta Conquest Baitcast Reel is part of a longtime benchmark round
reel series prized for their durability and cranking power. This reel
series is now the new flagship which combines innovative features along
with Calcutta's timeless design for demanding anglers. The Calcutta
Conquest is a cold-forged aluminum workhorse which boasts 12 SA-RB ball
bearings plus a roller bearing to ensure continuously smooth operation.
Micro module gears allow a compact design along with its S-Compact body
and the large-diameter spool boosts line retrieves to over 30 inches per
handle turn. The SVS Infinity brake system provides an easy-to-manage,
consistent spool control and brake force while the Super Stopper II
anti-reverse provides instant hook-setting power. Shimano's X-Ship
improves the Reel's castability, while this baitcaster uses a Dartanium
Drag for a wider range of drag settings.
