SHIMANO CALCUTTA CONQUEST BAITCAST REEL 100

The Shimano Calcutta Conquest delivers high-end round baitcaster performance in a compact, palm-friendly design. Built with a solid metal frame and packed with Shimano’s flagship technologies, this reel is designed for anglers who value smooth operation, refined casting, and lasting durability. Featuring Micro Module Gearing, every retrieve is silky smooth and incredibly efficient, while X-Ship technology enhances gear durability and reduces friction under load, giving you confidence during long sessions and hard fights. The S3D spool helps eliminate vibration during casts, ensuring a smoother feel and better control across all lure sizes. Casting performance is further refined with the SVS Infinity braking system, which allows for consistent and easy braking adjustment in changing wind or lure conditions.

As the previous-generation model, this Calcutta Conquest offers a few unique characteristics that distinguish it from the current release. The brake control dial is conveniently located on the side panel, allowing for fast cast-control tweaks on the fly—a feature not found on the newer model. Internally, this reel uses a four-brake weight setup, compared to the eight-brake system in the updated version. Additionally, during casting or when in free spool, the line guide on this older model remains stationary, while in the new version, the line guide moves for more even line lay.

Whether you're targeting bass in freshwater or chasing light inshore species, this model of the Calcutta Conquest delivers timeless quality, smooth casting control, and proven Shimano engineering—all in a compact, beautifully crafted round reel.
