Shimano Thunnus CI4 12000

The Shimano Thunnus CI4 12000 is built for serious anglers targeting powerful fish with live bait setups — combining strength, precision, and Shimano’s trusted engineering.

Designed specifically for baitrunner-style fishing, the Thunnus CI4 features Shimano’s secondary drag system, allowing fish to take line freely before engaging the main drag — giving you complete control when targeting kingfish, snapper, and other aggressive species.

Constructed with a lightweight yet rigid CI4+ body, this reel delivers exceptional strength without unnecessary weight, making it ideal for extended sessions from the rocks or boat. Inside, HAGANE Gear technology ensures long-lasting durability and smooth power under heavy load.

With its large 12000 size, the Thunnus offers massive line capacity and serious stopping power, making it a top choice for live baiting and heavy-duty saltwater fishing.

Finished in a bold navy and gold design, the Thunnus CI4 12000 is built to perform when it matters most.
