Quality and innovation for all. Inside the lightweight, compact body of the updated CAIUS are proven technologies like the Variable Brake System (VBS), which applies centrifugal force and weights instead of magnets to temper initial spool acceleration. This design also allows the spool to spin freely until the end of the cast to reduce backlash. This, working in tandem with CAIUS' Super Free Spool design, eliminates distance-robbing friction and improves overall casting performance. To eliminate vibration and increase smoothness, a thin-walled aluminum high-tolerance S3D spool offers a baitcasting experience anglers should expect from Shimano, at an attainable price.

Super Free Spool
Super Free Spool eliminates friction on the spool shaft during the cast. Standard baitcasting reels are constructed in a way that when the clutch bar is pressed down, the pinion gear is freed and can actually drag on the spool shaft. This creates friction that can limit the length of a cast. But baitcasting reels with Super Free Spool are constructed so that the pinion gear is supported by a ball bearing. When the clutch is disengaged in preparation for a cast, the pinion gear and spool shaft are kept in perfect alignment. The result: zero friction is placed upon the spool shaft and enhances casting performance.

VBS Baitcasting
VBS uses centrifugal force, rather than magnets, to aid in controlling the cast. When turned on, the individual brake weights are forced outward at the beginning of the cast — when backlashes most often occur — to create friction that reduces the speed of the spool. Once the spool speed begins to slow, the pressure with which the brake weights contact the raceway lessens and allows the spool to continue spinning.

S3D Spool
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.
