Shimano Bantam 150 MGL A Baitcast Reels

You fish with intent—and the Shimano Bantam MGL A Baitcasting Reel is built to match that energy. Designed for serious power fishing, it delivers unshakable strength, buttery-smooth retrieves, and next-level casting performance. With Shimano’s advanced MicroModule Gear and Infinity Drive packed into a rigid CoreSolid Body, the Bantam MGL A delivers the kind of torque that bulldozes bass out of cover—without sacrificing feel or finesse. Want total control on every hookset and cast? This reel is your answer.

Built for Battle: Why This Baitcasting Reel Stands Out

• CoreSolid & HAGANE body – One-piece aluminum construction offers a rock-solid feel and eliminates flex under heavy loads.
• MGL Spool III – Reduced startup inertia means longer casts and better control across a wide range of lures.
• Infinity Drive + MicroModule Gearing – Ultra-smooth, high-efficiency reeling that turns brute strength into finesse performance.
• Cross Carbon Drag – Generates relentless stopping power, perfect for pulling big fish out of thick cover.
• SVS Infinity & SilentTune – Precision braking and vibration reduction for seamless, quiet casting.
