The Reel
The Shimano Twin Power XD 4000HG Spinning Reel features some great qualities which include the upgraded Hagane Gear, cold-forged technology that created a strength rating much higher than you would expect for this size reel. Additionally it has X-Ship which ensures an optimum pinion and gear support harmony, and that means super-smooth, ultra-light reeling for you. Hagane Body acts as a rigid aluminium armour that firmly suppresses any distortion and twisting when under load, and X Protect provides the Twin Power XD with Shimano's highest degree of protection. Finally, the new Magnum Light Rotor enables effortless winding through a 14 % reduction in rotational resistance and a 30% improvement in rigidity. Not only that, the metallic blue base looks stunning with silver and gold highlights. With all these amazing features built into the Shimano Twin Power XD 4000HG Spinning Reel, this reel stays true its premium pedigree.

Hagane Gear
The battle-tested cold forged Hagane Gear has received a significant upgrade through advancements in Shimano's high precision technology, resulting in a strength rating that is comparable to one size larger in the previous model.

X-Ship
Additionally, X-Ship provides vital pinion and drive gear support, ensuring optimum arrangement for ultra-light smooth reeling. To further protect the engagement of the XD's internals, the Hagane Body acts as a rigid aluminium armour that firmly suppresses any distortion and twisting when under load.

X Protect
To oppose unwanted saltwater intrusion, X Protect provides the Twin Power XD with Shimano's highest degree of protection. Developed specially for the XD series, X Protect leverages a waterproof labyrinth structure on top of the anti-reverse bearing which blocks any internal saltwater entry into the body. This is also combined with a new water repellent treatment that is applied to the body, line rollers and roller clutch, making the reel ideal for saltwater applications.

Magnum Light Rotor
The new Magnum Light Rotor enables effortless winding through a 14 % reduction in rotational resistance and a 30% improvement in rigidity. G Free body shifts the reel's centre of gravity closer to the reel seat, perfecting the reel's balance and feel when in your hand.

The Rod
Built to accommodate a spin reel such as a Baitrunner, the Shimano Backbone Elite Spinning Rod is ideal for straylining and casting baits down the berley trail to the awaiting fish. It's constructed with exceptionally high quality composite blanks and is specially made for heavy duty use. What's more, this elite spin rod is finished with top quality guides and bindings. So it really doesn't matter whether you're a newbie or an experienced fisho, this rod's simply a pleasure to use all day long!
