Shimano Navi 1500

[Sir Fish-a-lot]

Har någon erfarenhet av denna rulle?

Den säljs kanske inte här eftersom förhållandet mellan lindiameter och hur mycket som får plats enbart anges i Lbs/yards.

Vad innebär följande översatt till mm/m
1.5/150
2/120
3/80

Rör det sig om en UL-rulle?

Max drag: 1.6 kg... vad menas med detta?

Hmmm...

"Max drag" means that the maximum pressure the drag will achieve with the drag all tightened down, is what the manufacturer lists, if the pull of the fish exceeds the drag pressure the reel can apply, the line will slip, the catch is, the drag is there to:

1.- Protect the line from breaking
2.- Protect the gearing of the reel

The drag is set at a certain percentage of the line's breaking strength. Anywhere from 25 - 33% should be alright. When the drag is set as such, barring abrasion or wear on the line and a good working drag and a rod rated to protect the line you are using, the fish should not break the line no matter how much it runs.

Thanks, man!

Couldn't ask for a better answer!

The thing is I've never come across "max drag" before. At least I have never seen it mentioned in any product specifications (manual) for a reel.

I had a hunch though.

I guess this reel would cope with bream, rudd, roach, perch and perhaps tench and small carp...

Pike and large carp would "kill" the reel, wouldn't they?

Most definately... i wouldn´t subject that reel to such pressure
I´d go for a Shimano NAVI 8000XTA instead ... for large pike, carp & cats.
