Description
BLUE HEAVEN" has led the jigging scene for many years.
The L30 is lightweight and compact, the L50 is an all-rounder for inshore waters, the L80 is for large bluefish, yellowfin tuna, and mid- to deep-sea fish in expeditions and inshore waters, and the L100 is for tuna, large scampi, and deep-sea fish.
The lineup includes sizes to suit a variety of targets and fishing methods.
L Shape Drag Lever
The L Shape Drag Lever is the most optimized design and is a specification followed by jigging reels all over the world.
Spool Replacement
A typical feature proposed by SOM since the first BHL.
Spools can be easily replaced even on a rocking boat.
Lead design (utility model)
The edges of the gearbox are irregularly shaped so that the lever position can be sensed with the fingers without visually seeing the reel.
Super Spool Free (patent registered)
Two small-diameter bearing supports the spool when the spool is free, and a large-diameter bearing slides to support the spool when the spool is wound up. The synergistic effect of the lightweight spool provides amazing spool free performance. In the jigging scene, it can be said to have "fishing performance" that enables anglers to put jigs into the bite zone first.
Asymmetrical design (design registered)
The size is easy to grip despite the use of large, powerful gears.
The gear box side is larger and the palm side is smaller, the world's first jigging-specific design proposed by SOM.
Semi-water proof drag
Since the lever drag system is equipped with drag washers on the sides of the spool, if water enters the spool through the gap between the spool and the frame, the drag performance will be significantly reduced.
BHL is the only system that combines a lever drag system with waterproof capabilities, without compromising spool-free performance."
G40 Cork Drag Washer
Focusing on the initial weight and drag force of cork drag washers, we developed the G40 cork drag washer with a smooth polished surface and strength by using a custom-made compression machine to eliminate the rough surface and weak bending strength that were weak points of cork drag washers.
Large diameter mounted module gear
The drive gear is made of high-strength brass material.The mounted module design produces powerful winding force that can be felt from the moment a single reel is wound.
Aluminum Forged and Machine-Cut Gear Box and Frame
The gearbox, which houses the powerful core, and the hub designed to smoothly transmit power from the handle to the spool without loss of efficiency, are crafted from aluminum using a forging technique and precisely machined with a machining center.
High-strength one-way bearing
BHL uses special one-way rust-proof bearings that are custom-ordered and press-fitted into a machined case made of ultra-super duralumin.
Two bearings are used for L100 and L80, and one for L50 and L30.
Drag setting
For L50,L30, the adjustment range of 1 click is set at approx. 0.5 kg, and the MAX position is set at plus 2 kg.
For L100 and L80, 1 click is set at approx. 1 kg. The drag force varies from minus 3 kg to the MIN position based on the strike position, plus 3 kg to the FIGHT position, and from there to plus 4 kg for the MAX position.
Set the strike position according to the line strength used.
