SHIMANO FX 2BB 5.0 SPIN
Shimano's FX series spinning reels are built to be dependable, do-it-all reels suited to anglers of any skill level. Loaded with features aimed at boosting casting distance, smoothness, and long-term durability, the FX is a great fit for beginners, kids just getting into fishing, and anyone chasing a range of species.
Inside, the Power Roller system works alongside Varispeed Oscillation to lay line back onto the spool evenly, cutting down on line twist and loops. Shimano's Dyna-Balance technology keeps the reel spinning without wobble, adding extra smoothness and sensitivity to every retrieve, while the Super Stopper anti-reverse system delivers instant hook-setting response. The FX lineup spans sizes from 1000 all the way to 4000, and every size benefits from G-Free Body technology, which shifts the reel's center of gravity closer to the rod and the angler's hand — reducing fatigue and making longer days on the water more comfortable.
Now featuring a roller clutch, propulsion spool, and a higher bearing count, the FX series delivers more performance for the money than ever. A uniquely shaped spool ring helps straighten the line as it comes off the spool, cutting down on line trouble while extending casting distance.
