Shimano Nasci C5000 XG FD - 2025 Fishing reel

The new SHIMANO Nasci FD is a high-tech spinning reel created for anglers who value precision, reliability and excellent value for money. Designed to cover an extremely wide range of fishing techniques, the Nasci FD offers smooth, powerful and quiet operation that noticeably improves the overall fishing experience.

Its performance is based on SHIMANO's proven technologies - HAGANE GEAR, X-SHIP and AR-C SPOOL, which ensure long-lasting gear strength, stability under load, as well as long and accurate casts. The legendary HAGANE gear, cold-forged from ultra-duralumin, guarantees a "tight" and confident feel when winding, which is maintained over time - a philosophy followed in the previous model, but improved here.

The Nasci FD takes a major step forward, inheriting key technologies from SHIMANO's higher-end reels. Technologies such as INFINITYDRIVE, ONE-PIECE BAIL, ANTI-TWIST FIN and SILENT DRIVE have been added, which are aimed at greater power, smoother operation and trouble-free line control in all conditions. Despite all the improvements, a lower weight has been achieved compared to the previous model. The body is made of a material with excellent rigidity, which protects the gears and provides an optimal balance between strength and elasticity - especially suitable for fishing with braided fibers. The aluminum handle is designed to suppress torsion, so that the force applied by the angler is transmitted directly and efficiently to the mechanism.

G FREE BODY technology improves the balance between reel and rod, reduces fatigue during long fishing and contributes to an extremely light and natural feel when working. COREPROTECT provides reliable protection from water through a non-contact system that does not affect the smoothness of rotation and maintains long-term reliability.

For maximum casting efficiency, the AR-C SPOOL with a specially shaped edge ensures smooth line release, reduces fraying and allows for longer and more accurate casts.

The SHIMANO Nasci FD is a versatile reel that combines modern technology, improved power, lower weight and excellent value. A perfect choice for both serious and advanced anglers, as well as those who want a reliable, technologically advanced reel for all fishing challenges.

HAGANE BODY - The reel body is made of aluminum-magnesium alloy using cold stamping technology. By using this technology, very high hardness and impact resistance of the body is achieved. The prerequisites for bending or deforming the housing are eliminated, which in turn leads to more precise operation of the mechanisms and the drum.

HAGANE GEAR - The main gear is made from a single piece of metal alloy using SHIMANO HAGANE cold forming technology, without additional machining. This ensures smoothness, strength, lightness and strength at the very heart of the reel.

X-SHIP - A specially developed gear system with multiple elements that increase strength and power. Through the larger diameter and central location of the main gear and gear, more power is transferred from the handle to the reel rotor. The gear, in turn, is supported by two Shimano ARB rollers.

INFINITY DRIVE - contributes to powerful rotation, which at the same time is light to the touch, even when reeling in large lures.

SILENTDRIVE - The basic design of the entire body and the parts related to movement are reviewed one by one. The fine looseness, gaps, shakes between parts and details are completely eliminated. Targeted areas for improvement include drive gear, worm shaft, worm shaft pin, worm shaft gear and so on. Extremely smooth and silent rotation is achieved.

ANTI TWIST FIN - This technology is for trouble-free winding of the fiber. It controls the tension in the B line, which passes through the pulley of the yoke.

COREPROTECT - provides reliable protection from water through a contactless system that does not affect the smoothness of rotation and maintains long-term reliability.

G FREE BODY - Shifts the center of gravity of the reel closer to the rod. This is achieved by moving the oscillating mechanism 19 millimeters closer to the fishing line. As a result, the reel does not feel any beating when spinning and the casting distance increases.

AR-C SPOOL - Patented SNIMANO spool design with beveled edge - reduces friction when casting, making it much more accurate and precise. Prevents the formation of "beards" when working with braided fibers.

ONE-PIECE WAIL - A reel made from one piece, allowing the line to pass unhindered to the reel. This reduces friction and the chance of the line tangling.
