Shimano Torsa Lever Drag Reels - J&H Tackle

The Shimano Torsa is the king of kings when it comes to high speed and powerful lever drag fishing reels! Not only is it the perfect combination of speed and power, but it casts like a dream. This truly is the ultimate fishing reel!

Get a scale set the drag to full hook it to your line and when she starts to slip you have a rough estimate of max drag.

Talica 2-speed. Get the 16II or the 20II depending on how much line you need.

Shimano does not post that info but it is a lot!

PROBLEM IS: you cant change out the drag cams, because shimano discontinued the cams 3 years ago. So, you are stuck with the LRS, which achieves only HALF of the drag ratings that the torsa is capable of. Such bullshit. I wanted the torsa 20 with a BFS 50 cam so bad, but when i found this out, i moved over to an Avet reel. Too bad shimano started focusing on cheaper, cast, poorly developed talicas so they could make more for less.

What the max drag with the stock cam.

can you tell us the application the torso would be mostly likely used for vs the talica
what could the torso handle that the tallica couldn't exception of line capacity.
