Aldebaran DC

The Premium-Baitcasting reel!

The Aldebaran DC is Shimano's Premium-Baitcaster, made with precision and without compromise. Equipped with Shimano's exclusive I-DC5 Intelligent Digital Control braking system and advanced Hagane technology, this reel offers top performance throughout. The Aldebaran DC is a true masterpiece in design and function, delivering excellent performance at the highest level.

This reel combines ultra-light design with robust Power and top-class feedback, and was developed for anglers who demand flawless performance. Lighter, more direct, and more compact than any spinning reel, the Aldebaran DC allows for hours of fatigue-free fishing.

The Aldebaran DC is available in both a High-Speed (HG) and an Extra-High-Speed version (XG), enabling you to select the ideal gear ratio for your fishing style. With Shimano's remarkable I-DC5 braking system, you can expect unparalleled precision and casting distance, setting a new standard in terms of control and performance in all situations.

The result is a reel that perfectly balances even the lightest rods. Inside the case are 10+1 high-quality ball bearings, a MicroModule Gear, and X-Ship, to ensure a silky smooth operation and powerful cranking performance.

The fighting performance is further refined by the Cross Carbon Drag, which ensures smoothness and control, and by the Exciting Drag Sound, which gives audible feedback about the line being drawn out.

But it's the advanced I-DC5 braking system that really sets this reel apart. This exclusive Digital Control braking system automatically adjusts the braking force to achieve optimal precision and casting distance. With three internal and five external adjustment options, you can not only adjust the reel to the line used but also to the size of the bait (plus an additional friction-free setting).

This is an exclusive Shimano technology that, in combination with Silent Tune and the S3D-Spool, provides superior precision in casting.
