The Reel
The Shimano Baitrunner reels have been the most dominant brand of
Baitrunner on the market for many years now. The quality of these
Shimano Baitrunner reels is exceptional. The Shimano
Baitrunner D is the paramount range of the new Baitrunner
collection, boasting the best features of the previous range and
boldly combining them with new Shimano technologies and design to
deliver the best Baitrunner yet.
Notable Features
The Shimano Baitrunner 8000 D Spinning Reel
features all the latest Shimano technologies; from Propulsion Line
Management System to S A-RB bearings. The new compact profile
lineup 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
