The Reel
Get ready to do some serious fishing! The Shimano Talica 50
II 2-Speed Game Reel is designed using the latest in
overhead reel technology. So whether it’s soaking baits over deep
reefs, deploying live baits or trolling lures in the deep blue
waters around the coast the Shimano Talica 50 II Game
Reel is ready to take on any challenge.

The Shimano Talica 50 II 2-Speed Game Reel has a
one-piece cold forged (for extreme strength) and machined Aluminium
frame that’s treated with a proprietary surface process for
cutting-edge corrosion protection. Shimano then added a lightweight
cold forged aluminium spool, oversized HEG (High Efficiency
Gearing) gears, waterproof carbon drag system and 6 S-ARB bearings
for super slick operation. The Talica has been constructed to
withstand massive drag pressures for their respective sizes and a
carbon drag system has been waterproofed (when engaged) to handle
salt water spray. Plus, its High Efficiency Gearing means that it
has the power to fight fish well above its weight class.

The Shimano Talica is built on solid engineering principles that
put this reel in a league of its own. This series offers a
high-speed retrieve that you can use for jigging up brutal Kingfish
from offshore structures where speed can make all the difference or
use it to target Marlin and Tuna trolling lures or pitching out a
bait to a fired up pelagic.

The Rod
The Shimano Abyss SW Stand Up Game Rod has been
designed, tested, redesigned, tested, tweaked and tested again by
Team Shimano and Tony Orton from Offshore Adventures and his busy
charter crews.

Shimano’s latest range of blue water-centric rods is built on
ultra-tough Shimano T45 graphite blanks and fitted with top quality
Fuji SiC/SiN II guides and Aftco/Fuji reel seats. The all-new
Shimano Abyss SW Stand Up Game Rod is a dynamic,
lightweight yet very strong tamer of the powerful blue water
species like Kingfish, Bass, Hapuku, Tuna, Billfish and the mighty
Broadbill Swordfish. It’s engineered not only to look awesome from
the tip to the butt section but it also completes MSL tests of well
over specified line ratings at 45° and 60° respectively. And not
only that, it’s built tough enough to handle the rigours of
day-to-day charter work. Get ready to do some serious fishing!
