Featuring top-quality Shimano gear, the Shimano Beastmaster 9000A Status Blue Water Carbon Straight Butt Electric Drone Combo delivers the power and performance you need to overcome fierce targets. It gives you the unparalleled reeling performance of the Beastmaster 9000A Electric Reel, paired with the extreme strength of the Status Blue Water Carbon Straight Butt Drone Rod. If you're looking for a solid drone fishing set, this combo will get the job done.

The Reel
The new Shimano Beastmaster 9000A Electric Reel has been upgraded to deliver more speed, winding power and useful features than ever. The ultimate power-assist reel for deep drop and kite fishing, the BeastMaster now boasts 10% more lifting power under load, and 10% faster retrieve - 67 seconds to bring a 15kg load 100 meters at max speed, or 35% faster than competing models.

Advanced GigaMax brushless motor provides unparalleled performance. Planetary gear system generates incredible torque, with a maximum winding strength of 290 lbs. backed by up to 55 lbs. of drag force. And with a full 3.1:1 gear ratio, the BeastMaster pulls in 35inch of line per crank, to get that beast headed toward the boat quickly, before the sharks can close in. Its 12/2/0 S-ARB double-shielded ball-bearing system delivers consistently smooth performance. And instead of a mechanical clicker, a running fish will trigger Shimano's audible e-Exciting Drag Sound electronic technology; you'll just have to hear it to believe it! Plus, it comes equipped with an improved rod clamp with wider base for lockdown stability. Deep water species like Swordfish and Tuna will not be able to resist the Beastmaster.

The Rod
A combination of the Status Bent Butt and the classic Tiagra rod, the Shimano Status Blue Water Carbon Straight Butt Drone Rod is built to tackle the most dynamic offshore and inshore sportfishing situations found throughout NZ's surrounding oceans. Featuring powerful graphite glass blank construction, this rod has extreme strength while still maintaining a comfortable feel, making it perfect for fishing using electric reels, and both Tiagra and Talica reels.
