Fin-Nor Santiago reels represent the latest in technology from the company that has been synonymous with big game fishing for more that 75 years. From the beginning, Fin-Nor reels were developed based on the needs of captains who were targeting trophy tuna, marlin and swordfish. Bigger and stronger reels were required to land these sea monsters, and Fin- Nor was able to deliver. Fin-Nor s brand became as much a part of big game fishing history, as did the fish that were caught. Over 380 and counting World Records have been caught on Fin-Nor reels, including the current All-Tackle Black Marlin (1560 lbs. ), Pacific Blue Marlin (1402 lbs.) and Swordfish (1182 lbs.). Over time, and especially in recent years, big game fishing has advanced; but the need for quality and performance has only gotten more critical. Stronger, thinner-diameter lines are being used on smaller-sized reels, requiring high-performance, wide-range and ultra-smooth drags. Fin-Nor Santiago was engineered specifically for these new challenges. No other reel has a better tradition, nor is advanced or designed as well as Santiago. Big game, world record fishermen and women travel the world targeting their next great catch. Fin-Nor has been to all of these places before, and with the new Santiago, anglers will continue to set new world records.
From Fin-Nor s pioneering days, the sport of big game fishing has been evolving and has become even more advanced in recent years, making the need for quality tackle more critical. The skills of today s big game Captains allow the use of smaller-sized reels with super-performance drags, spooled with stronger, smaller-diameter lines. Today, big game fishing requires a reel designed to make records fall. And no reel is as advanced or designed as well for this task as the Fin-Nor Santiago. Santiago is perfectly designed and sized for the special needs of today s big game angler. A solid one-piece, fullymachined aluminum frame and one-piece aluminum spool is supported with a machined, stainless steel center shaft turning on four ultra-smooth and ultra-strong ceramic / stainless hybrid ball bearings. Santiago s revolutionary titanium drag plate works in conjunction with additional carbon fiber drag plates to create incredibly smooth, long-lasting drag performance specifically designed to handle strong, long-fighting fish.
Every Santiago features two speeds for quick line pick-up and power on demand. An easy-to-use button pushes in for a powerful low-gear, and easily twists back out for high-speed retrieve. A newly-designed ergonomic handle knob makes these reels convenient for the angler to fish, and allows you to stay on a fish with greater comfort and control. Distinctive Fin-Nor classic gold anodizing protects Santiago against all of the elements of the ocean. The traditional sailfish badge on the left-hand side can be custom-engraved to personalize your reel the same way legends like Tommy Gifford, Michael Lerner and Ted Williams did with their own Fin-Nor s years ago. Big game, world-record fisherman and women have traveled the world with Fin-Nor for the catch of a lifetime. In a tradition that started more than 75 years ago, Fin-Nor s Santiago stands ready for the next battle.

It is designed for incredibly smooth performance from free spool all the way to total lock-down if desired.
