Alivio 10000 XT-A
A Shimano Baitrunner Spool reel is Shimano’s method of incorporating a baitrunner system on some of their larger and Big Pit Reels. It is a free spool system enabling the angler to set the spool into a free running mode with just half a twist of the front drag. This means that when you do get a run, all you need to do is to check the spool with your finger to hold it still and then, with half a twist back, loch the spool down into fighting mode again.
Examples of Shimano’s Baitrunner Spool reels are: -
- Alivio 10000 XT-A
- Ultegra 5500 XT-B
- Tribal 5500 XT-A (limited edition)
- Ultegra 14000 XT-B
- Power Aero 10000 XT-A
- Aero Technium 12000 XT-B
