Reel SHIMANO Alivio FA

Shimano Alivio FA Reel

A versatile large-size reel

The Shimano Alivio FA is a spinning reel designed for anglers looking for a simple, robust and efficient model. With its large sizes, it adapts perfectly to fishing situations requiring capacity, power and good casting consistency.

It is suitable for carp fishing as well as targeting large predators or light surfcasting. Its matte black design with metallic inserts gives it a sleek and modern finish, while maintaining an accessible and practical build.

Smooth and powerful retrieve

The Alivio FA benefits from mechanics designed to deliver smooth rotation. The bearings work in conjunction with the gears to produce a supple and stable retrieve, comfortable during long sessions as well as during the fight.

This smoothness allows better line control and ensures a consistent retrieve, even with heavy rigs or bulky lures.

Multi-disc front drag for greater confidence

The multi-disc front drag provides progressive and reassuring pressure. It allows powerful fish runs to be managed while maintaining good control during the fight.

This design provides security, particularly for fishing situations where the line can be heavily stressed, such as carp fishing, large predators or sea fishing.

Aluminium spool and optimised line management

The aluminium spool offers good resistance and contributes to the casting quality of the reel. Combined with AR-C line management, it promotes smoother and more consistent line release.

The Varispeed winding improves line distribution on the spool. This combination delivers strong casting performance, even with heavy weights or rigs designed to reach long distances.

Two sizes for heavy-duty fishing

The Shimano Alivio FA is available in sizes 6000 and 10000. The 6000 size offers a good compromise for versatile fishing, while the 10000 size provides greater capacity for techniques requiring more line reserve.

This reel is a reliable option for anglers looking for a large-size model that is easy to handle and suited to multiple fishing styles.
