Shimano Speedmaster XTC Spin Reel
Calling all dedicated surf and rock anglers. The Shimano Speedmaster XTC spin reel is for sale now at the fishing tackle shop.
Want an extra-long cast to reach that distant gutter or bommie? Want 20kg of max drag? How about a spool that’ll hold half a kilometre of 50-pound braid? The Shimano Speedmaster XTC spin reel has all the Shimano tech and features you need to tackle monsters from the rocks and surf.
With a well-balanced fishing rod, you can expect phenomenal distance thanks to the long cast spool working in concert with super-slow oscillation. The super-slow oscillation delivers a uniform line lay, ensuring your next cast is as good as the last cast.
Ideal for casting a larger class of lure, the XTC is excellent for ripping big poppers and big metal slices at aggressive pelagic species. Throw poppers from the rocks aiming at kings and mackerel.
Hit the beach and tie on a metal slice for non-stop action with big tailor and Aussie salmon as big as they grow. Try a live mullet or whiting as live bait for big mulloway lurking in the deeper surf gutters.
For those anglers looking for the extra grunt to tackle rock-side pigs and groper, the Shimano Speedmaster XTC Spin Reel has all the low down cranking power you need. XTC is an excellent reel for pulling 45 cm+ bream from shallow reefs around the ocean rocks.
Further up north, anglers will love chasing trevally and queenfish from rocky headlands and tropical bays. Do you want to pursue a lighter class of fish like dart, bream and whiting from the beach? Just get a second spool a fill it with a line class as light as you dare (contact us for a price on a spare spool).
The mid-price Speedmaster XTC fishing reel delivers outstanding performance and reliability. Rock and beach angling requires sturdy kit to get the job done, and the Shimano Speedmaster XTC spin reel has oceans of toughness with a touch of class.
Fancy tagging a yellowtail kingfish from the rocks? A mulloway from the surf? It would help if you had a Shimano Speedmaster XTC spin reel. For sale now, here at fishing tackle shop.

Fishing Applications and Fishing Rod Suggestion Guide
The Shimano Speedmaster STX Spin reel is ideal for beach or rock fishing.
Suitable for targeting anything from surf whiting, bream and flathead through to Australian Salmon, Tailor, jewfish and kingfish.
Our suggestion is to pair the Shimano Speedmaster STX Reel to a 10-12ft+ sized fishing rod for best performance and balance.
Benefits
- The long cast AR-C spool and super-slow oscillation deliver incredibly casting distance, allowing anglers to reach distant structures where the fish are feeding.
- The Parallel body also assists cast distance by limiting the frequency at which the line comes in contact with the rod during casting.
- Casting comfort has been enhanced with the addition of the G Free Body. Distance is improved, and angler fatigue is reduced.
- X-ship works hand in hand with the A-RB bearings for brilliant reel stability and power transfer.
- High-speed drag will be ideal for live bait anglers as free spool can be turned to fight mode with a small turn of the drag knob.
The Shimano Speedmaster XTC spin reel is a fantastic looking fishing reel and built to handle the rigours of rock and surf fishing. Not only will it manage the harsh environment, but it will also put the hurt on the oceans toughest fish.
