The Reel
Superseding the well-known Shimano Baitrunner B series, the Shimano Baitrunner 8000 OC Reel is the latest release in Shimano’s Baitrunner range. This new series boasts some of the most exciting upgrades seen in a Baitrunner reel for years, yet it still consists of the elements which made Baitrunner a household name for Kiwi fishos.

The Shimano Baitrunner 8000 OC Reel is a medium-sized Baitrunner fishing reel making it ideal for straylining and livebaiting off the boat or casting from the rocks. This new range now comes with a replaceable spool clicker, Vari-speed oscillation to make sure you get perfect line lay with Power Pro and other braided lines, and Propulsion Line management to give you that extra distance while casting.

Not only have the handles been upgraded from the B series, but the Shimano Baitrunner 8000 OC Reel also features a cold-forged spool for increased strength and durability and Shimano's Fluidrive II which increases the efficiency of the retrieve for more power with less effort.

The Shimano Baitrunner 8000 OC Reel would have to be one of the most versatile, affordable bait fishing reels out and is without a doubt the one reel you must have next time you hit the water.

The Rod
The Shimano Aqua Tip Boat Spinning Rod is from the range of arguably one of the best value-for-money ranges available to fishos for many years.

Designed with a solid integrated tip, the Aqua Tip range is perfectly suited for most fishing situations. Featuring striking metallic blue, silver and black binds, shaped EVA grips and hooded winches, the Shimano Aqua Tip Boat Spinning Rod will look great and answer every fishing demand.
