Description
The CALCUTTA CONQUEST BFS LIMITED is a limited-production version of Shimano's round-body baitfinesse reel, finished in an exclusive metal-body colourway with the Yumeya Aluminium Sensitive Knob fitted as standard for extra feel. It shares the Magnum Light Spool III and FTB (magnetic brake acting on a brakeless spool) of the standard Calcutta Conquest BFS for light-lure, low-trajectory casting and long casts, plus Micro Module Gear for a smooth retrieve, X-Ship and a HAGANE body.

FAQ
Is the JDM version different from the US or AU release?
Often, yes. JDM releases can differ in spool depth, weight and handle options, and the Japanese lineup is usually broader — including sizes and models never exported.
Will spare spools from my current reel fit?
Spool compatibility is per generation, not per model name. Check the model year and size code against the spool before buying — the model code is listed on every reel.
What size should I choose?
As a ladder: 1000–2500 for finesse and light lines, 2500–4000 for general lure work, 4000 and up for heavy or salt duties. Match the size to your line and water first.
PG, HG or XG — what's the difference?
PG is a slow, powerful gear for cranking. HG is the all-round high gear. XG is the fastest retrieve for picking up slack quickly — higher speed trades away winding torque.
What warranty or service do imported reels have?
There is no local service centre for a JDM reel. Repairs and servicing go back to Japan, usually with a fee and a multi-week turnaround — weigh that before you buy.
Can I still get spares for older JDM-only models?
Often, yes — Japanese makers keep parts lists for older models, and some spares are stocked here. See the spares and custom parts collection, or ask before you order.
