Product Description

Shimano Nasci 500FC – Compact Strength, Precision Performance

The Shimano Nasci 500FC is the smallest model in the Nasci lineup, designed for anglers who demand lightweight precision without sacrificing strength. Perfect for ultralight freshwater applications, this compact reel delivers the smooth and dependable performance expected from Shimano.

Built around Shimano’s cold-forged HAGANE Gear, the Nasci 500FC offers superior durability and long-term smoothness compared to reels with traditional diecast or machined gears. While the larger models in the series feature additional technologies such as CoreProtect, SilentDrive, and X-Ship, the 500FC focuses on delivering reliable performance in a compact and easy-to-handle package — making it ideal for light tackle setups and finesse techniques.

Key Features:

HAGANE Gear – cold-forged for exceptional strength and durability.
Compact Ultralight Size – perfect for freshwater finesse and light-tackle fishing.
Redesigned Nasci Series – engineered with Shimano’s attention to detail for smoothness and reliability.
Versatile Application – tailored for trout, panfish, and other light freshwater species.
