Description
EXSENCE XR is Shimano's dedicated night-game seabass spinning reel, built to bring flagship-adjacent performance to a lower-light, feel-driven fishing style. Micro Module Gear II smooths and quiets the retrieve, sending more information back through the rod for retrieve-heavy lures like sinking pencils and minnows; a long-stroke spool widens the line lay for easier, lower-resistance casts; Silent Drive removes internal play for a quieter spin; and Rigid Support Drag supports the spool on two bearings (main shaft and spool) for stable drag under sudden runs from a hooked seabass. Shimano's page describes it as built for anglers in relentless pursuit of seabass.
This listing covers two sizes. C3000M: gear ratio 5.3, actual drag 3.5kg / max drag 9kg, self-weight 185g, spool diameter/width 47/17mm, max retrieve 78cm per handle turn, 50mm handle, 9BB+1 roller. 3000MHG: gear ratio 5.8, actual drag 3.5kg / max drag 9kg, self-weight 200g, max retrieve 86cm per handle turn, 55mm handle.
Japanese product name: Exsence XR (23 Exsence XR).
