The Tranx features a revolutionary design and shape that provides the comfort of low-profile reel with the capacity of a conventional reel. X-Ship and HEG technologies combine to provide massive cranking power with a smooth and effortless retrieve. The Tranx is offered in High Gear (HG) and Power Gear (PG) models to cover a wide range of applications.

If you’re serious about winning those epic battles yet to come, put a Shimano® TranX® 500 or 300/400 Baitcast Reel in your hands. This is a tank of a reel, built for big baits and big fish, with the strength to subdue almost anything that swims and the durability to keep coming back for more. Its rigid diecast aluminum Hagane body, oversized HEG Gearing, and X-Ship internal support combine for massive cranking power; the advanced Coreprotect sealing system keeps water away from the internals, so every retrieve feels almost effortless.

Even with its compact, ergonomic profile, the TranX is fully equipped to win, with a precision aluminum S3D spool; QuickFire II clutch bar; super-efficient 5+1 system with S-ARB stainless steel bearings; proven Variable Braking System; Cross Carbon drag; and rugged CI4+ handle knob or low-gear models have double handles with oversized rubber paddles.

From the TranX 500HG and PG to the 400 and 300 A and AHG models, anglers can depend on our expertise.
