Shimano Nasci FC Spinning Reels

SHIMANO NASIC FC SPINNING REELS

Delivering Shimano's renowned performance and reliability at an exceptional value, the Nasci FC Spinning Reels feature upgraded technologies typically found in higher-end models. Designed for versatility, this reel series excels in both freshwater and saltwater applications. When purchasing the Nasci FC from Jerseey Hooker, novice and experienced anglers alike can experience the benefit of Shimano technology at a price that anyone can appreciate.

EXCEPTIONAL FEEL AND PERFORMANCE

The first thing anglers will notice when picking up the Nasci FC is its remarkably light weight and exceptionally smooth operation. Turning the handle is effortless, while the retrieve feels buttery smooth. Despite being surprisingly light, the reel feels extremely well put together. All parts including the handle, bail, spool and frame feel in sync with one another for a tight, low tolerance feel. The rock solid construction instantly inspires confidence in the reel's capabilities.

On the water, the capabilities of the Nasci FC only become more evident. The smooth operation translates into the field even under heavy loads. The rigid body and overall framework of the reel is uncompromising, resisting torque and flex even when fighting large fish under heavy drag pressures. Drag payout is smooth and consistent, without the herky jerky stop and go sticky drag feeling anglers have experienced with inferior equipment. Overall, Jerseey Hooker customers widely agree that the Nasci FC offers performance that is often expected from reels well outside of its price bracket.

TECHNOLOGY GALORE

The Nasci FC improves upon the rock solid foundation set by the previous generation by implementing Shimano technologies previously only found in their flagship level series. A new addition to the feature set is SilentDrive, a technology borrowed from Shimano's top-tier spinning reels. By refining gear tolerances to a micron level, SilentDrive minimizes unwanted noise and vibration, enhancing overall reeling performance. SilentDrive eliminates that creaky, rickety feeling often experienced with lesser quality reels, especially when under heavy stress. All parts of the reel are tuned to the ulimate levels of precision to work together in perfect harmony.

The newest generation of Nasci Spinning Reels retains the standout features that made its predecessor a top choice among anglers. It continues to feature cold-forged HAGANE Gear technology, ensuring flawless meshing of gears for the ultimate smoothness and superior durability when comparted to reels that utilize diecast or machined gears. Additionally, Shimano's X-Ship and CoreProtect technologies return, enhancing winding power and providing reliable protection against the elements.

THE PERFECT SIZE FOR YOUR APPLICATION

Containing a full array of inshore spinning reel sizing, the Nasci FC is available in the perfect size for any freshwater, inshore, or nearshore fishing application.

• NAS500FC: Ideal for ice fishing or paired with a very short ultra-light rod for micro-fishing. Target species will generally be smaller panfish or freshwater fish of a wide size range when used on the ice.
• NAS1000FC: The go-to size for ultra-light rods. Most commonly used in freshwater with monofilament lines for panfish and trout.
• NAS2500HGFC: A versatile size for freshwater fishing and light inshore saltwater fishing. Perfect for bass fishing, walleye, and larger panfish and trout. Saltwater applications include backwater environments for speckled trout, flounder, small redfish, etc.
• NASC3000HGFC: This size is built on the 2500 size body, but features a larger spool for greater line capacity. Suitable for bass fishing and inshore fishing for school sized striped bass, redfish, snook, and more.
• NAS4000XGFC: Built for inshore and nearshore fishing. Has enough power and line capacity to handle big fish like large stripers, bull reds, and snook.
• NASC5000XGFC: This size is built on the 4000 size body, but features a larger spool for greater line capacity. Suitable for heavy inshore and nearshore applications for big species like striped bass, bull redfish, snook, and potentially even tarpon.

SHIMANO TECHNOLOGY FOUND IN NASCI FC SPINNING REELS

• CoreProtect - Designed to deliver outstanding water resistance without adding extra rotational resistance during retrieval. Key areas like the roller clutch, body, and line roller are specially treated to prevent water intrusion.
• Cross Carbon Drag - Provides a broader range of drag adjustments, improved durability of drag washers, and the smoothest drag performance Shimano has ever achieved.
• G-Free Body - Shifts the reel's center of gravity closer to the reel seat, ultimately moving the angler's hand position to improve balance, reduce fatigue, and enhance casting performance.
• Hagane Body - A highly rigid reel body that minimizes flex and withstands impacts, ensuring maximum durability. This design enhances cranking power by efficiently converting an angler's movements into smooth, powerful retrieval.
• Hagane Gear - Offers exceptional strength and longevity, utilizing a precise cold-forging process rather than traditional cutting methods. This advanced technology ensures a consistently smooth reel performance, providing anglers with reliability from the first cast to years of use.
• Propulsion Line Management System - A uniquely engineered spool lip design, tested extensively through thousands of casting trials and computer simulations, ensures longer casting distances while minimizing backlashes and wind knots.
• SilentDrive - A series of precise internal micro-adjustments and refinements that increase gear tolerance to a micron level to eliminate gaps, shaking, noise from moving components. The result is an exceptionally low tolerance feel with unparalleled smooth rotation.
• X-Ship - By supporting the pinion gear with bearings on both ends, it maintains perfect alignment with the drive gear, even under heavy loads. This design minimizes friction between the spool shaft and gear, resulting in smoother casting and enhanced gear longevity.
