The versatile and lightweight combo that packs a punch
The next time you head out fishing for the day on your kayak, then
take the Shimano 6000D Baitrunner and Aquatip Kayak Spin
Combo with you. This versatile, lightweight rod and reel
combo not only looks great, but with the fast action of the Aquatip
rod and the power of the Shimano Baitrunner 6000D reel, this combo
will provide you with endless hours of fishing.
The Reel
The Shimano 6000D Baitrunner Reel is the
culmination of years of engineering advances in Shimano’s premium
bait fishing range. Designed for larger New Zealand saltwater
fishing species, the Shimano 6000D Baitrunner Reel
has raised the bar on previous models and now can deliver the most
impressive Baitrunner that New Zealand’s anglers have ever
seen.
The Shimano 6000D Baitrunner Reel features all the
latest Shimano technologies, from Propulsion Line Management System
to S A-RB bearings. This new compact reel can handle nearly any
live-bait application but still maintain the incredible durability
of the legendary Baitrunner Series. The key feature of the Shimano
Baitrunner is its secondary drag system which maintains a
controlled free-spool with the closed bail allowing fish to run
with the bait. By flipping the lever or turning the handle, the
primary drag quickly engages allowing you to strike once your catch
has eaten the bait.
Key features of the Shimano 6000D Baitrunner Reel
include: Shimano’s Cold Forged Spool for increased strength and
durability over die-cast aluminium or graphite spools, Propulsion
Line Management System so your reel can cope with using super
braided lines, Varispeed Oscillation for even line lay on your
spool, Dartainium II Drag giving you 9kgs of stopping power, SA-RB
Ball Bearings that reduce the possibility of sand or salt
inhibiting the bearings rotation, Super Stopper Anti-Reverse that
eliminates back-play and provides you with instant hook-setting
power, Dyna-Balance to create smooth rotation and eliminate
vibrations in the reel and Fluidrive II Gearing giving you
increased efficiency of retrieve for more power with less
effort.
Whether you’re casting, straylining a Pillie or out to smash some
Kingies on a live bait, your Shimano 6000D Baitrunner
Reel will have you covered for years to come.
The Rod
The Shimano Aquatip Kayak Spinning Rod is a
fantastic rod that’s designed with a solid integrated tip and is
perfectly suited for most fishing situations. It’s been arguably
one of the best value-for-money rods available for fishos for many
years. Featuring a striking metallic blue, silver and black bind
and shaped EVA grip, this rod looks great and has a reliable tough
performance to boot.
