The evolution of the iconic Ocea Jigger lineup of reels continues with the debut
of the Ocea Jigger 2500 LD to provide anglers with a more capable offering for
expanded endeavors in deeper water and larger fish. The lever drag design offers
easy and consistent drag adjustment with stabilized performance in high drag
situations — an essential factor with a reel capable of producing 44 pounds of drag.
Shimano’s Infinity Drive technology within the Ocea Jigger 2500 LD incorporates a
new drag design that increases drag force while decreasing side load pressure to
produce up to 30% lighter rotation during tough battles.
With a retrieval rate of 46 inches per turn, the HG model enables anglers to present
jigs with finesse in deep water situations while providing quicker retrieval from the
depths. The MG model is ideal for anglers fishing up to 150 feet or in situations
where drag strength and winding power are paramount.
The rigid HAGANE Body eliminates body flex during tough battles and efficiently
transfers winding directly into cranking power. For added palmability and comfort,
the Ocea Jigger 2500 LD features an S-Compact Body for increased in-hand comfort
with a cutout for improved thumbing and line control. The reel also includes a
secondary light-line cam that creates a drag curve similar to a 30-pound-class reel for
added drag control and versatility.
