SHIMANO BEASTMASTER MD 12000

The Beastmaster MD 12000 is the strongest and largest electric reel Shimano has ever produced, created with the mission of achieving overwhelming power, speed, and durability, for fishing in deep waters targeting giant fish. At the heart of the powertrain which bears the name MD 'Monster Drive', is the newly developed GIGA MAX brushless motor. With 2.5 times the torque and a constant practical hoisting power of 38kg, it has achieved significantly improved performance in comparison to the 19 Beastmaster 9000. The drag force, which is a decisive factor when fighting with large fish, has achieved an astonishing 43kg. The HAGANE body, a highly rigid metal body, houses this astonishing power. While an improved reinforced gear system, whereby the reduction gear is supported by bearings, achieves impressive efficiency and durability during long fights and fully demonstrates performance in actual battles. The synergistic effect of the new motor, powerful drag system, improved reduction gears, and heat dissipation structure provides unprecedented winding strength and speed, stability, and high durability. By combining the best Shimano technologies and design we have created a reel that overturns conventional concepts. The line capacity, PE8/1200m, has been designed to support anglers that are targeting large hapuka, bass, and swordfish.
