The Shimano 2025 Nasci FD Spinning Reel is a cutting-edge evolution of a proven favorite, designed for serious anglers who value performance, durability, and versatility. Built for both freshwater and inshore saltwater use, the new Nasci FD features Infinity Drive technology, providing powerful, ultra-smooth rotation even under heavy loads—perfect for battling hard-fighting species.
A One-Piece Bail system streamlines the line path, reducing friction and minimizing potential points of failure, while the Anti-Twist Fin ensures optimal line lay and prevents tangles for consistently clean casts and retrieves. Shimano’s CoreProtect technology enhances water resistance without adding heavy drag, helping protect internal components from splashes and spray.
With Shimano’s signature cold-forged HAGANE gearing and precise engineering throughout, the 2025 Nasci FD delivers long-lasting reliability and refined performance. It’s available in a wide range of sizes—from ultra-light 500 series for finesse techniques to the powerful 5000XGFD for heavier applications—so anglers can confidently match the reel to their target species and fishing style.
Whether you're casting lures from the shore, jigging inshore flats, or chasing bass in your local lake, the Nasci FD offers the perfect blend of smoothness, strength, and value that only Shimano can deliver.
