Shimano Aldebaran is specialized in finesse fishing, for rigs 5g 3/16oz or heavier. Its ultra light weight and small palming body allow you delicate, soft presentation in tough conditions.
Its body construction is combined with magnesium alloy body frame and CI4+ engineering carbon material side plates to achieve both light-weight and solidness.
It employs two innovative features to make it real arsenal for serious anglers. The first noticeable feature is the super shallow, light-weight spool, which accelerate fast even with 5g, 3/16oz rigs. The shallow spool still has enough line capacity, but its spool is machined to remove weight. The second is variable SVS Infinite centrifugal system, and you may adjust the centrifugal brake without opening side plate, at 20 levels. You may also change the number of brake blocks engaged at spool side, and will have quite wide range of brake settings.
