Classic Design Meets Bait Finesse Innovation
The Shimano Calcutta Conquest BFS HG represents the perfect fusion of heritage design and modern finesse reel technology. Whether you’re targeting trout in mountain streams or bass in tight structure, this reel delivers buttery-smooth performance with lightweight lures and unmatched reliability.
Engineered for Finesse Fishing
At the heart of the reel is Shimano’s MGL Spool III, a low-inertia spool designed to handle ultra-light presentations with maximum control. Paired with the Finesse Tune Brake (FTB) system, the result is longer, more accurate casts even with small baits in challenging conditions.
Durability Meets Precision
The circular frame is made from cold-forged aluminium in the iconic Calcutta style, delivering exceptional strength in a compact, ergonomic package. Internally, the reel features MicroModule Gear technology and X-Ship support for smooth retrieves and refined gear alignment.
