Overview

Designed with a magnesium HAGANE body, MGL Spool IV, and brimming with other cutting-edge Shimano technologies, Shimano Antares 100 B Casting Reels are meticulously crafted for uncompromising bass anglers who demand the utmost in refinement and performance. As the premier baitcasting reel in the Shimano lineup, the Antares 100 B utilizes the advanced MGL Spool IV, a new lightweight spool design providing low-inertia startup and engineered with a unique reverse taper for precise line winding, excellent balance, and smoother casts.

When second best simply won’t cut it, the Shimano Antares 100 B Casting Reels deliver the exquisite craftsmanship and awe-inspiring performance you expect from a flagship Shimano offering.

Phenomenal caster, but too bigThe 2025 Antares is an amazing reel from a casting perspective. I have mine on my Megabass Orochi XX Brailist and spooled with 40# braid and it's a simple flick of the wrist to send a 1/2 oz jig as far as I could possibly need to. Super smooth on the retrieve as you would expect. The only problem with the reel is that it's enormous compared to the other 100 sized reels on the market. I don't notice the size so much on the water since I have bigger hands and the additional weight isn't a noticeable either considering that I have it on rod that it balances with fairly well. If you're looking for a reel to pair with a super high end, light weight rod (Conquest, Destroyer, NRX+, etc...) I would look at something else.

Big and BulkyI was excited about the release until I got my hands on it. I have a pic of it compared to a 200 curado dc, 100H steeze sv tw, and a 70 metanium DC. It is every bit the size of the 200 curado. its heavy, doesn't palm. For the price, it’s a disappointment, and it feels like shimano mailed it in just to bring an ‘updated’ product to market. I would buy any of the other models listed above before this reel. It’s like wanting the newest high end super car; and then getting a Porche Cayenne.
