Serious gear for serious fish
Ready to tackle the true giants of the deep in New Zealand waters? The Shimano Tiagra 50 WLRSA Game 25 Abyss SW Bent Butt Game Combo is the ultimate weapon, matched for serious anglers who demand uncompromising performance and reliability. This formidable combo brings together the legendary Tiagra 50 WLRSA reel with the tough Abyss SW Bent Butt rod, giving you the brute strength and refined control needed to land those trophy Kingfish, Marlin and Swordfish.
The Reel
The Shimano Tiagra 50 WLRSA Game Reel is geared specifically to handle not only the fish themselves but also the harsh saltwater environment. Perfectly suited for chasing down Stripeys, this rod features a slightly darker, heavier gold anodising, a newly designed Septon power handle and a drilled drag quadrant with a drag curve that's better suited to New Zealand conditions.
The heavier anodising makes these reels even more resistant to the ravages of saltwater, while the click stop drag quadrant permits more precise drag adjustments. The counterbalanced handle falls easily to hand when striking a fish and makes winding easier during the course of a long fight. It’s rubberised ‘tackiness’ combats sweaty hands which, as you may well know, can be a problem during the course of a long hard-fought fight.
Another major rule of game fishing is that the leverage you create in a chair or stand-up harness with a big marlin, tuna or shark on the other end of the line places a HUGE amount of pressure on the tackle. That’s exactly why Shimano has made the Tiagra’s one piece, machine-cut frame from a 7mm aluminium tube (the thickest on the market). Team that up with the A-RB bearings, heavy duty stainless steel gears, a two speed shifting mechanism and you are guaranteed a reel that is as serious at catching fish as you are. Choose the Shimano Tiagra 50 WA, you’ll need nothing else.
Shimano Metal Series
The Metal construction showcased in some of Shimano's finest reels now appears throughout their line of Metal Series products. Metal frames not only keep moving parts in precise alignment, they also feature the use of the latest anodising, plating and painting techniques for beautiful and durable finishes.
Anti-Rust Bearings
A-RB are made of stainless steel that has been through the A-RB process. At least 10 times more corrosion resistant than standard stainless steel ball bearings. Easy maintenance no-shield design allows for easy flushing of debris and easy lubrication. Increased bearing speed-no shield design and lighter viscosity lubrication reduce friction and allow the bearing to spin faster and longer.
Shimano Aluminium Cold Forged Spool
These spools provide strength and durability over diecast aluminium or graphite spools.
2 Speed Gearing
This mechanism is designed so that gear changes are quick and easy, even when fighting a fish. The low gear ratio used for high-power retrieves is selected by pushing the button on the base of the handle. Return to the high-speed ratio by sliding the release button along the handle shank. By using two sets of gears, the drive and pinion gears are always engaged. There is no gear meshing during the shift.
The Rod
The Shimano 25 Abyss SW Bent Butt Game Rod is made for one thing: conquering the toughest offshore species New Zealand waters can throw at you. This finely tuned fishing machine is purpose-built for serious big game anglers chasing Kingfish, Marlin, Swordfish, Bass, Hapuka and Bluenose.
At its heart is the revolutionary T45 graphite blank technology. This rod combines a significant reduction in weight with incredible hoop strength and sensitivity. This means less fatigue for you during those long battles, while still giving you the power to haul in serious catches and the feel to detect the most subtle bites. Equipped with only the best componentry, including top-tier Alps Roller guides and heavy-duty Fuji Silicon Nitride guides, you're guaranteed optimal line management and reduced friction, even when a powerful fish is stripping line under extreme load. The ultra-strong AFTCO bent butt provides superior leverage, making those stand-up battles more manageable and effective.
If you're serious about battling the giants of the deep, the Shimano 25 Abyss SW Bent Butt Game Rod has you sorted for performance and durability. Get ready to hook into your next trophy!
