Shimano Nasci 1000FC Spinning Reel

Redesigned with enhanced smoothness, durability, and refined operation, the Shimano Nasci 1000FC brings premium technologies into an accessible, all-purpose spinning reel. Ideal for finesse freshwater applications and light inshore use, the Nasci 1000FC is engineered for anglers who demand reliability and exceptional performance in a compact package.

Built around Shimano’s cold-forged HAGANE Gear, the reel delivers long-lasting strength and superior cranking power compared to standard machined or die-cast gears. SilentDrive—technology borrowed from Shimano’s flagship reels—reduces internal tolerance gaps down to the micron, resulting in noticeably smoother rotation, less noise, and reduced vibration.

To withstand harsh environments, the Nasci 1000FC incorporates CoreProtect, a water-repelling system that seals out unwanted moisture without adding resistance, keeping the reel light, efficient, and protected. Internally, X-Ship supports the pinion gear with dual bearings to enhance gear alignment and maintain smooth, powerful rotation under load—crucial when fighting aggressive fish on light tackle.

Premium performance, refined feel, and trusted Shimano durability make the Nasci 1000FC an outstanding choice for ultralight and finesse fishing.
