Fighting monster deep-water species is challenging even for experienced fishos. But with the right gear, you'll enjoy catching those big fish. The Shimano Forcemaster 9000A Status Bent Butt Electric Game Combo is specially matched to give you the power to win big fights!
The Reel
The Shimano Forcemaster 9000A Electric Reel delivers outstanding winding speed and strength, high drag ratings and generous line capacity to cover a variety of water depths, from inshore to over the continental shelf. It offers a programmable and manual mode to cover different fishing techniques, from deep dropping to jigging.
The Rod
A combination of the Status Bent Butt and the classic Tiagra rod, the Shimano Status Blue Water DDM Bent Butt Game Rod is built to tackle the most dynamic offshore and inshore sportfishing situations found throughout NZ's surrounding oceans. Featuring powerful E-Glass/carbon construction, this rod has extreme strength whilst still maintaining a comfortable feel, making it perfect for fishing using electric reels, and both Tiagra and Talica reels. This rod is finished with Pac Bay guides and a detachable Pac Bay bent butt.
The Line
A blend of old-fashioned fishing knowledge and the newest technologies, the PowerPro High-Visibility Yellow Braid is strong, smooth and sensitive. It's made with ultra-strong braided Spectra Fiber and Enhanced Body Technology for fewer wind knots, better retrieves and longer casts. Get started right away because it's spooled and ready to use directly from the box. The package protects the remaining line plus it comes with a built-in cutter for easy use.
