Description

The 25 STILE (25スティーレ) is a lightweight dual-bearing boat reel in Shimano's technical light-game series. All gear ratios share a 145g magnesium frame -- the same material as the flagship Stella spinning reel -- for high rigidity at a low weight, plus a Micro Module Gear internal gear train for a smoother, quieter retrieve, a 55mm long handle for added cranking torque, a centrifugal brake for backlash-free casting, and a new clutch-lever shape.

This listing covers the PG (gear ratio 6.4:1, max drag 4.5kg) and XG (8.9:1, max drag 3.5kg) ratios in the 100 and 101 handle positions. Per Shimano's official product page, XG suits kawahagi (カワハギ/filefish) and fugu (フグ/pufferfish) fishing that needs a fast pickup, while PG suits tenya tachiuo (テンヤタチウオ) and tairaba (鯛ラバ/red seabream jigging) where steady retrieve power matters.

Japanese product name: 25スティーレ.

Information

The drivetrain

A 145g magnesium frame, the same material used on the flagship Stella spinning reel, keeps the reel light and rigid, and a Micro Module Gear internal gear train gives a smooth, quiet retrieve with a centrifugal brake for backlash-free casting.

What it's built for

A technical light-game boat reel for kawahagi and fugu that need a fast pickup, or tenya tachiuo and tairaba where steady retrieve power counts for more than speed.

How it fishes

XG's 8.9:1 ratio suits the fast hook-sets and pickup kawahagi and fugu demand; PG's 6.4:1 ratio gives the steady, controlled cranking power tenya tachiuo and tairaba fishing rely on.

Spools and spares

Pairs with a 6-7ft light boat rod, PE0.6-1 line and a fluorocarbon leader around 2-4lb.

Before you buy

Straight answers

How is it priced?

We give you the cheapest available price, as we get it directly from the distributors. You pay what an angler in Japan pays, plus postage.

When does my order leave Japan?

Orders are packed in Japan and handed to Japan Post within 3 to 5 business days. You get a tracking number by email the moment it ships.

How long does delivery take?

10 to 20 business days on Standard (tracked) or Economy, or 3 to 7 business days on Express EMS with tracking and insurance. Every option is priced at checkout before you pay.

Will I be charged import duty or tax?

VAT is collected at checkout, so there is nothing to pay on delivery for standard orders.

Is it genuine Japanese stock?

Yes. Every item is the Japanese domestic release with the original JAN barcode, sourced from an authorised Japanese distributor, never grey imports or marketplace resellers.
