Shimano JDM Antares DC (4x8), Digital control bait casting reel Japan Version

Shimano high-end bait caster, Antares/Calais combined with the DC digital control brake system make it the very best.

The DC brake system has been proven to offer the longest casting distance, since the release of Conquest DC in 2003. The Antares DC has the improved 4x8 DC system to have 4 casting modes(L, M, A and W) and 8 strength of fine adjusting, which is adjustable by dial without opening the reel.

　

The 4 modes set the brake to appropriate for various casting situations.
bullet Long casting (L); Achieving the longest casting distance with relatively heavy, metal rigs in calm wind condition.
bullet Multi (versatile) casting (M); The mode is the most likely to be used among the 4 modes. Suite the best for top water, crank baits, spinner baits and etc.
bullet Accuracy casting (A); Brake force is the strongest among 4 modes, offering stable brake tension. Useful for pitching and skipping.
bullet Windy casting (W); Allow the best casting in winds from ahead. Great for bulky, light baits as well.

Jun's comments:  The smooth gears feel like moving on ice, no friction or vibration. The computer brake system is supreme, and you may choose the best setting from wide range of settings. However, there are too many settings to choose, and it is a bit confusing.
