SHIMANO - BEASTMASTER MD - 12000

SHIMANO - BEASTMASTER MD - 12000 - ELECTRIC JIGGING / BOTTOM FISHING REELS

SHIMANO's strongest and largest ever. A true BEASTMASTER that conquers even the super big and deep sea.

To reel up powerfully by multipoint hooking in full-scale deep water. It must also be able to catch large fish such as yellowfin tuna and kuei with overwhelming speed. Furthermore, it must not break. The BEASTMASTER MD 12000 is SHIMANO's most powerful and largest electric reel ever, created to deliver the overwhelming power and speed needed to catch big fish in deep water. GIGA-MAX MOTOR, with 2.5 times (*1) the motor torque and 38 kg of practical winding endurance. The drive power that combines overwhelming speed and power is supported by a reinforced gear system that incorporates SHIMANO's superior durability and attention to detail. The drag force, which is the decisive factor in a fight with an ultra-large fish, reaches an astonishing 43 kg, making it SHIMANO's most powerful ever for reeling in huge fish with unparalleled power.
The HAGANE body, a highly rigid metal body, houses this astonishing power. The body is protected from heat generated by the drag section by means of a heat dissipation system, enabling the angler to fight for long periods of time. The 80/92 mm long handle makes it easy to reel in the fish when fishing near the boat's edge.

An undersea information screen displays undersea information in real time in color, essential for catching the moment when you encounter a big fish.　

The strongest and largest ever SHIMANO power rod. The MD12000, a "true beast" boasting power and speed never before experienced, marks a new chapter in big game and deep sea fishing.

NEW GIGA-MAX MOTOR GIGA MAX MOTOR is only available on the BEASTMASTER series. The greatest feature of this motor is that it is a brushless structure motor without brushes made of carbon or copper, which are employed as one part that conducts electric current, so there are no parts that wear out and it has a long service life. At the same time, it also has the advantage of being able to deliver strong power even at high temperatures, when performance tends to deteriorate. The BEASTMASTER MD 12000 is equipped with a newly developed NEW GIGA MAX MOTOR that has been enlarged to achieve overwhelming power and speed. Motor torque achieved an astonishing 2.5 times*. The wind-up power and speed tests also recorded unparalleled speed and strength. From the moment you wind it up, you will experience a new dimension of motor power. *19 Comparison with BEASTMASTER 9000

Heat dissipation system: Improved heat dissipation and body reinforcement. Improved heat dissipation in the side plate section. During a long, high-load extreme fight, the temperature of the side plate section rises if the drag is allowed to slip for a long period of time. BEASTMASTER MD 12000 uses aluminum for some of the side plates, which improves heat dissipation by 60%* and strengthens the body. *19 Comparison with BEASTMASTER 9000

Enhanced gear system Gear system with ball bearings for amazing durability. The gear system has been significantly strengthened, including bearing support for the reduction gear, to achieve excellent durability. The synergistic effect with new GIGA- MAX MOTOR realizes unprecedented strength, speed, and stability in winding. This is a reinforced gear system for long-lasting battle together with a brushless structure motor that boasts high durability.

80/92mm long handle When swimming with a large No. 200 to No. 300 bait, manual winding of the rod by the handle is the standard operation after repeated frequent bottom-taking or after reeling in a large fish near the gunwale by electric power. The 80/92 mm long handle enables powerful manual reeling without compromising this moment. The specifications have been carefully designed for fighting with large fish. * Handle length can be switched between 80mm and 92mm.
