Shimano ForceMaster 6000

The Shimano ForceMaster 6000 is a powerful electric reel developed for live-bait fishing, yellowfin tuna and other demanding big-game applications. Its rigid HAGANE Body provides a solid foundation for heavy-duty fishing, while a reinforced drag system using four sets of carbon cross washers delivers a maximum drag of 30 kg, comparable to the BeastMaster 6000.

A high-strength cold-forged aluminum clutch lever and lightweight, rigid CI4+ handle knob enhance durability and operation. Heat Free System II improves heat dissipation through ventilation that releases internal heat, supporting reliable motor performance under sustained high loads.

Tankenmaru Scale displays real-time bottom depth and visualizes bottom contours such as flat areas, descending slopes and rising slopes, helping anglers anticipate changes and trace the seabed. When connected to compatible ACCU-FISH systems, fish-school depth information can also be displayed.

Additional technologies include HAGANE, HAGANE Body, Tankenmaru compatibility, e-Exciting Drag Sound, S A-RB, Raku-Raku Mode, Constant Speed Mode and Fine Dot LCD. The reel does not contain a lithium battery; Shimano recommends using a high-capacity battery such as the BT Master 11AH to fully utilize its performance.
