Shakespeare Ugly Stik Gold Spin Rod 5' 8-12kg + Daiwa Free Swimmer BR 5000 Spinning Reel + Nylon Line
Product Description
The Shakespeare Ugly Stik Gold 5' 8-12kg + Daiwa Free Swimmer BR 5000 Combo is a robust and versatile fishing setup, meticulously designed for saltwater action. This ready-to-fish package provides exceptional strength, precise control, and smooth performance, making it ideal for targeting hard-fighting species like snapper and kingfish in New Zealand waters and beyond.
This combo brings together two highly regarded components: the legendary Shakespeare Ugly Stik Gold rod and the advanced Daiwa Free Swimmer BR 5000 reel, complete with pre-spooled nylon line so you can hit the water immediately.
Renowned for its unparalleled durability and sensitivity, the Shakespeare Ugly Stik Gold series is built to withstand the rigours of diverse outdoor, sporting, and fishing environments, from general angling to challenging rock fishing. This 5-foot, 1-piece rod features the iconic clear tip design for enhanced strength and superior strike detection, offering maximum leverage in a powerful, compact build.
The legendary strength of Ugly Stik Gold rods stems from their advanced Howald Process "Double Built" or "Triple Built" blank construction, featuring an E-glass outer layer and a graphite inner core. This innovative design delivers exceptional sensitivity while making the rods virtually unbreakable. Further enhancing their quality, these rods are equipped with premium Fuji components, including Fuji New Concept Guides with durable Aluminium Oxide inserts and reliable Fuji DPS or TCS reel seats. Comfortable tapered EVA grips, often etched with the Ugly Stik logo, offer a secure and ergonomic hold.

The Daiwa Free Swimmer BR (Bite 'N' Run) spinning reel is meticulously engineered for anglers who demand precision and durability in varied fishing conditions. Developed through a five-year collaborative effort involving Daiwa engineers from the USA, Australia, New Zealand, and Japan, this dual-drag reel is specifically designed to excel in popular straylining and live-baiting styles, particularly for targeting species like Kingfish and Snapper.
Featuring a secondary rear drag system, the Free Swimmer BR allows fish to take bait with minimal line tension, ensuring optimal hook sets before you engage the main fighting drag with a turn of the handle. Built with a strong, carbon composite frame and an Air Rotor, the Daiwa Free Swimmer BR boasts carefully sealed internals with rubber seals, making it a true saltwater-ready Bite 'N' Run reel. It integrates a host of advanced Daiwa technologies, including Air Rotor, ATD Drag, and Tough Digigear, culminating in Daiwa's best-performing Bite 'N' Run reel to date.
