Built on the same compact, rigid, and versatile platform as the popular SLX baitcasting reel, the SLX DC adds Shimano’s innovative DC Braking technology for enhanced casting performance. The Digital Control (DC) Braking system helps manage spool speed to minimize backlash and optimize casting distance, putting professional-level casting control within reach of every angler. With no compromises on performance, the SLX DC is a top choice for those seeking reliability and precision in their fishing gear.
