NEW SURF REEL FOR 2024 ULTEGRA XR XSD - BREAKDOWN AND WALKTHROUGH

[@buca2020]

How does the ultegra xtc 14000 compare to the XR 14000?

[@nafkhannafkan2090]

2024 ultragra xr better than 2022 ultragra xse?

[@j.gariandooutdoors1686]

Sadly there is no available reel like that in the Philippine market.

[@herbcanter2114]

The Shimano long cast reels never had an issue with the spool shaft integrity so this rigid cast means nothing . The most important aspect of a long cast reel is the oscillation and it looks like Shimano failed once again to equip the new model with Super Slow 10 and will stick to the inferior super slow 5 . They also failed to offer a hardened spool lip which is understandable on this subpar long caster because Shimano doesn't even offer a hardened spool lip on the superior and much more costly new Aero Technium . The Aero Technium isn't offered in the USA anymore unfortunately .

Good afternoon, what would be a hardened spool lip?

[@twinskovacevic]

Does it have anti reverse switch?

[@JPDeRoseOutdoors]

Not that I noticed

[@HumbertoClaudino]

Good afternoon. I would like to know if the SARAGOSA SW BFC A reel can also be used in surfcasting, as I really liked the line retriever per crank (56 in).

[@JPDeRoseOutdoors]

Yes it can however it is not as efficient at casting distance a compared to the Ultegra and Speedmaster surf reels and their retrieves are very high and close to the BFC.

[@HumbertoClaudino]

@@JPDeRoseOutdoors Thank you very much for your attention.

[@danialirfan176]

The last surf ultegra had many negative feedback can you ans why ?

[@JPDeRoseOutdoors]

I don’t get a chance to see the feedback on the reels so I really have no idea. I have used them and had good success with them but the biggest complaint I hear is about them not being water sealed so guys can dunk their reels like they tend to do in the North East. I don’t fish like that so it’s never been an issue

[@joepatrykus4251]

Does this reel have an automatic bail or is it manual only. Thanks

[@JPDeRoseOutdoors]

I believe it’s manual

[@Weinfurter1]

I have this model and I lost the drag knob assembly, but it is impossible to find this part in Brazil. Does anyone have any suggestions on where I can find and buy it?

[@JPDeRoseOutdoors]

You might have to reach out to the North America reel repair centre. Should be able to find it online. Search Reel Repair Shimano

[@pwndu3452]

Do you know if the body of the reel if made as the same material as the saragosa? Or is it the ci4+ like the older model? Thanks

[@piercel.6845]

So what the different between XSD and XTD?

[@JPDeRoseOutdoors]

I believe XSD is designed for surf and XTD for Carp... not 100% though

[@JPDeRoseOutdoors]

The difference is in the XS vs XT - the letter D should be the Generation code

[@piercel.6845]

@@JPDeRoseOutdoors Ok, i use for Surf so XS should be good for me. Thanks

[@JPDeRoseOutdoors]

@@piercel.6845 I believe so but not 100%. Typically the surf models will have Rigid Support Cast to beef up the spool shaft because of the load and pressure from casting heavier baits and weights

[@ZurkanFishing]

Es el mismo ultegra xse ,la diferencia esta en el guía ilos y el freno de carbono. Por lo demas es lo mismo
