Shimano ForceMaster 9000 A Electric Reel

Why you need this:

When you’re dropping 500+ feet for halibut, lingcod, or black cod, you need a reel that won't quit. The Shimano ForceMaster 9000A delivers next-level electric performance in a sleek, compact design. With drag power up to 55 lbs, smooth digital control, and a blazing fast retreive speed of 837 ft/min, this reel eats up deep water like it’s nothing. Whether you’re fishing Prince William Sound or the outer coast of Kodiak, this reel brings Shimano’s elite engineering to Alaska’s deep-drop game.

• Monster 55 lb drag for hauling up barn doors
• 12V electric motor with ultra-smooth start and retrieve
• High-speed retrieval: up to 837 ft per minute
• Digital control system with precise speed and power adjustment
• Deep capacity spool fits over 1,000 yds of 80 lb braid

What’s this good for?

Targeting deep-water halibut, lingcod, black cod, and large rockfish
Long drops (400–800 ft+) where fast retrieval saves time and energy
Heavy rigs, big bait setups, and solo trips
Helping older or mobility-limited anglers stay in the game
Electric reel setups on charter or personal boats

How to use?

Mount to a heavy-duty electric reel rod (like our B&J Halibut Hammer or Big Butt Stick)
Connect to a 12V battery power source (not included)
Use the digital control panel to monitor speed, depth, and retrieve
Drop, hook, and haul with precision — this reel won’t slow down

Why we love this one:

From deep drop jigging to bait fishing at extreme depths, it’s one of the best tools you can bring aboard.
