The newest and most popular reel in the Shilton freshwater line up is the CR series, which is available in CR2-CR4 for line weights 3 to 8. The super large arbor design offers rapid, yet smooth line retrieval and less line memory. Apart from the CR4, this series has the same drag design as the CL and CK. The CR4 has the same technical design features as the other CR sizes but has been increased in size and surface area offering more drag for those larger freshwater species. The CR4 is proving to be very popular amongst anglers who are targeting tigerfish, bass and large Salmonoid species with 7 and 8 weight rods. Coupled with extraordinary good looks and design they maintain Shilton's rugged durability and function.
Although the CR range has a super large arbor and naturally looks bigger than their freshwater cousins they are perfectly balanced with their recommended line weights and are lighter than the CK range. The line retrieval, both incoming and outgoing, is silent.
Available in Titanium, Black, Red, Orange, Blue, Purple and Turquois
