Shimano Tranx B Low Profile Baitcasting Reels

The Shimano Tranx B Low Profile Baitcasting Reels are new for 2025. Shimano has started with the 300 size in two configurations in both right and left handed. The 300B features a 5.8:1 gear ratio and a double paddle handle while the 200HGB has the 7.6:1 gear ratio with the single power handle. If you are fishing in saltwater, most of the time you will opt for the 300HGB as it can handle a wide variety of inshore saltwater fishing and the power handle is great. In this second generation Tranx, Shimano wanted to reduce flex in the reel and make it more rigid so you don’t have power loss. They were able to integrate all of the external structure to make this happen. They also moved the SVS Infinity MD Tune braking system to the outside of the reel so you can easily adjust it while on the water. This makes it a better topwater casting reel.

We love the Shimano Tranx at J&H and the new B version is going to be better than the original and just as popular. If you’re looking for an inshore jigging, bottom fishing reel, try a Shimano Tranx B Low Profile Baitcasting Reel!
