The toughest combo for the toughest fish
Talk about sturdy! The Shimano Tekota 800 Vortex Level Wind Game Combo is matched with strength and toughness in mind. You
get the Shimano Tekota reel, which was made to take on
tough fish in a tough saltwater environment. The other half
of this combo is a dynamic and versatile rod designed for NZ
fishing conditions. The Vortex Overhead Rod features a Power-Carbon
blank specially designed to take the knocks, an integrated glass
tip so as to retain sensitivity from the bite and also enhance
overall performance without compromise.
With this tough pairing, you can definitely grit your teeth and
take on the monsters!
The Reel
The Shimano Tekota 800 Level Wind Overhead Reel is a solid performer in the heavy level-wind over head market, simply because this versatile reel is loaded with features normally found only on Shimano’s top-of-the-line overheads.
This reel is versatile enough to be used in a wide range of fishing situations, but has also proven to be an excellent braid reel. The Shimano Tekota 800 Level Wind Overhead Reel has extra strong gears and workable retrieve ratios of 4.2:1. It also has functional level winds and super smooth Dartanium drag washers that release line without a hiccup.
Whether it’s bait or lure fishing for inshore species like Kingfish or dropping down deep to Hapuka and Bluenose, the Shimano Tekota 800 Level Wind Overhead Reel will impress the novice and experienced alike.
The Rod
The Shimano Vortex Overhead Rod is a strong,
dynamic and versatile rod that is designed to fit directly into the
KIwi lifestyle. It features a Power-carbon blank purposely designed
to take the knocks, an integrated glass tip to retain sensitivity
from the bite to the fight, and enhance overall performance without
compromise. These features allow Kiwi anglers to take full
advantage of the more traditional bait fishing techniques,
including the perfect match for the Shimano Baitrunner series. The
Shimano Vortex Overhead Rod has been designed by
kiwi fishos for kiwi fishos – it’s as simple as that!
