The Shimano Tyrnos range of saltwater overhead reels are designed for anglers who want a quality fishing reel but don’t have the budget for the more expensive Tiagra.
The smaller Tyrnos reels are incredibly versatile giving the angler the ability to troll around rocky headlands and bait schools for kingfish or drop baits for tasty eating fish such as bluenose, hapuka and bass.
The single speed versions have an alternating twin pawl anti-reverse mechanism while a comfortable ergonomic handle makes for a comfortable flight.
