Shimano Chronarch BSV

By listening to anglers who've used the low-profile Chronarch A baitcasting reels for the past decade, Shimano has designed a new-generation of Chronarchs with a specialized saltwater version for inshore fishing. The Chronarch BSV features a deep-spool, high-speed retrieve and oversize reel handle to help battle bigger fish. Available now in right-handed retrieve, with lefties due out in spring, the BSV holds 150 yards of 10-pound test, 130 of 12 or 110 of 14. The gear ratio of 6.2:1, six ball bearings and one roller bearing help this 9.5-ounce baitcaster retrieve 26 inches of line for every crank of the handle. Retail cost is $269.99.
