A great baitrunner combo that strikes the perfect balance between quality and value.

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 BTR Spinning Rod comes from the popular series of Shimano’s best value for money products. Designed with a roller tip that provides quality performance when reeling in big fish, this rod works great during saltwater fishing. It features well-shaped EVA grips and hooded winches that ensure reliability. The new striking finish also makes the rod look better and tougher.
