Questions about Shimano Talica Conventional Reels
Q:
What is this mean selectable reel on Tac10ii vs Tac10?
Answer: The ii means 2 speed reel. It is switchable from a high speed gear, for cranking speed to a low speed gear, for cranking power.
Answer: Sorry Brandon, i bought this as gift for a friend who is an avid trawler. He specifically asked for this reel, so I purchased it. We have used similar reels for fishing for Dorado along the BAJA Peninsula. I wish I could be more helpful.
Q:
Are talicas made in japan.
Answer: The Talica reels are made in Japan
Answer: Yes, Talicas are made in Japan.
Answer: Yes. And I'll also add that these are very nice reels. The drag isn't "jerky" but pulls smooth off of the reel and they're super easy to work on
Answer: Yes
Q:
Does this have a carbon fiber drag system?
Answer: Yes it does, and it's a very smooth drag as well
Answer: I am looking at the box and it doesn’t say, so I don’t think so.
Q:
I just bought it thinking this is talica 25. is it 25 or not? cause if it's not, i will cancel it. please answer me as soon as possible. thanks
Answer: According to ASIN: B0036FHN56 and product features, this listing should be Shimano Talica TAC12II Two speeds reel.
Answer: It is a 12II Not a 25, sorry
Q:
Why did the price of the talica 16 ii go from $471 to $539 overnight..... is this a seasonal thing ? The seller is shimano
Answer: Prices vary by the sellers. $539 is the actual retail price, anyone selling below is in violation of Shimano policy. Often times people sell the Japanese versions for less, but those do not have the US warranty and you will not realize it until you receive it. We only sell 100% US Warrantied items
Answer: Hi Ryan, $539 is the updated price for the Shimano Talica 16II. This is the minimum advertised price per Shimano, and we are not allowed to sell it for less. If we do so, we lose our dealership with Shimano, and they make a fantastic product that we've been happy to carry for many years. Thanks for your question!
Answer: Talica 16II is a MAP protected product and is in violation of Policy if listed below $549.99 Ant retailer listing under MAP is in danger of losing its dealership with Shimano (or may be getting product from the grey market) so beware...
Answer: The seller can sell the reel for any price he chooses too, however he can't advertise the reel for less than MSRP. As in this case the seller is lying by stating they will lose their license if they discout the product.
Answer: It’s was probably the amazon discount that went away. Sometimes amazon gives you discounts on things that are prime products. But I’m pretty sure those thing are returns so amazon fulfillment can give discount.

Q:

Q:

Amazon Customer : Great reels great price!
Great fishing reels!
behrang nikbakhsh : Five Stars
Love it , great Reel
Rick : buy the best
none better
Kindle Customer : Great casting & smooth
Like it for how well it will cast smaller baits. Have 2 Tallica 12's, wanted more line capacity for 100 lb.+ tuna. Use 80 lb. braid with short 60 lb. top-shots.
Only complaint is I like a lower gear ratio in low gear. Sent it out to Cal's 2 Speed as soon as I bought it to get the reel blue-printed, and a lower gear installed.
