Shimano Antares B baitcasting reel has been Shimano's flagship model for over 20 years, and the latest Antares B continues this legacy. Its futuristic and stylish design makes it not only visually stunning but also one of the most versatile baitcasting reels in Shimano's lineup. Available in three different gear ratios (availability may vary), the lightweight magnesium body combines advanced gearing technology, braking system, and casting performance to meet the expectations of the most demanding anglers worldwide.
Antares B excels in finesse fishing. If you need precision and the ability to cast even the lightest lures, this reel redefines what is possible. Whether it’s finesse jigs or small spinners, the Antares handles them effortlessly. Its powerful drivetrain makes it perfect for crankbaits and swimbaits as well. Thanks to its versatility and precision, Antares delivers top-notch performance in every fishing situation.
The impressive casting performance of Antares B is thanks to the advanced SVS Infinity braking system and Magnumlite (MGL IV) spool. The Ultra Duralumin material combined with the S3D spool design takes advantage of Silent Tune technology, reducing vibrations and enabling longer casts with lighter lures. The HAGANE body houses the Micromodule gearing and X-SHIP system, ensuring seamless smoothness and efficient power transfer. The Cross Carbon Drag and Exciting Drag Sound add an extra level of excitement and control during every catch. Antares B is a true flagship reel ready to maintain and enhance the Antares reputation for years to come.
