Shimano Calcutta Conquest DC 200

The name Calcutta is synonymous with smooth performance, easy casting, and durable round reels that continue to evolve to meet the needs of the modern angler. Enter the Shimano Calcutta Conquest DC A, the first saltwater rated DC reel, delivering unmatched versatility in a Digital Control platform. The I DC5 system, Shimano’s flagship DC technology, features a simple two dial design: the inside dial selects line type, nylon, fluorocarbon, or braid, while the outside dial matches braking to lure size or can be set to AUTO for optimized control. Working with an upgraded magnetic layout that includes a ring magnet, the system applies smoother, more consistent braking, and increases initial spool speed by 12% compared to I DC4, resulting in longer, cleaner, trouble free casts. The Calcutta Conquest DC A also incorporates MGL Spool IV, an ultra thin, reverse tapered spool engineered for low inertia, enhancing distance and accuracy when casting lighter lures. For anglers targeting big fish or making repeated casts with large baits, InfinityDrive provides light yet powerful winding under heavy load by reducing side load pressure, creating 40% lighter rotation during heavy battles. From presenting large glide baits for bass in freshwater to working topwater plugs and swimbaits for inshore favorites like striped bass, snook, and redfish, the Calcutta Conquest DC A is built to excel wherever your pursuit leads
