Shimano Sephia BB

Shimano Sephia BB is a dedicated eging spinning reel engineered to provide the essential performance required for squid fishing. The new generation introduces Infinity Drive, InfinityXross and Anti-Twist Fin, improving winding power, gear durability and line management beyond the previous model.

A lightweight aluminum main shaft and G-Free Body move the center of gravity closer to the angler's hand, reducing perceived weight during repeated jerking, while the lightweight and rigid CI4+ body helps minimize power loss and maintain stable reeling. EVA handle knobs are standard on all models for secure grip even with wet hands.

Rapid Fire Drag enables quick drag adjustment during the transition from hooking to fighting, helping reduce the risk of tearing the squid's soft body. The shallow spool is optimized for the standard PE 0.

6-200 m eging setup. Four models provide a choice between normal and high gear ratios and between single and double handles.

Normal-gear models retrieve 75 cm per handle turn for controlled presentations and range keeping, while high-gear models retrieve 86 cm for fast slack-line recovery and efficient fishing. Double-handle models offer balanced rotation that helps the handle stop when released, while single-handle models prioritize light weight and winding power.

Additional Shimano technologies include HAGANE Gear, MicroModule Gear II, X-Ship, SilentDrive, X Protect, AR-C Spool, Long Stroke Spool, S A-RB and One-Piece Bail.
