Shimano Status Bluewater Game 5'6" 24-37kg Bent Butt Roller Tip + Shimano Tiagra 80W

Product Description

THE ROD: SHIMANO STATUS BLUEWATER

Designed for electric reel deep sea fishing, the Shimano Status Bent Butt Game Rod is constructed using high power carbon and e-glass blank technology to withstand and absorb the pressures of deepwater fishing. Its aluminium bent butt allows for optimum angles when deploying baits while waiting for bites and fighting tough deepwater species like Bass, Hapuka and Bluenose. The Shimano Status Rod is aesthetically stunning - with a black blank highlighted with subtle flecks of silver, silver/blue bindings and a carbon weave. It makes not only a great performer but an attractive addition to your deepwater arsenal.
