Shimano SLX 70 Baitcast Reels

You’re not just casting—you’re launching with precision. The Shimano SLX 70 A delivers elite-level casting control in a compact, finesse-ready platform built to dominate both open water and tight cover. Featuring Shimano’s lightest spool yet—the MGL Spool III—this reel reduces startup inertia so you can cast lighter baits farther and with more control, even into a headwind. Backed by a rigid HAGANE Body and ultra-smooth SilentTune operation, the SLX 70 A punches well above its price class.
