Shimano Baitrunner BTR 8000 DGR Spinning Reel

         Product Description

Shimano’s Baitrunner D series is the culmination of years of engineering advances in Shimano’s premium bait fishing range.

This series has upped the ante on previous models and now can deliver the most impressive baitrunner that we have ever seen.
The range comes in four sizes which have been designed for larger saltwater fishing species, which can cover a number of different fishing styles such as saltwater casting or floating an unweighted pillie or squid bait down a berley trail intended for Snapper.
Each model has a water-proof drag system, Vari-Speed oscillation (Aero on 12000), cold-forged aluminum spool, lightweight yet strong graphite body with metallic black finish, Power Roller III, Super Stopper II, Dyna-Balance, and propulsion line management system so that your reel can cope with the increasing popularity of using such reels with braided super lines such as Power Pro.
This Baitrunner range also includes two larger 8000 and 12000 models and with their generous line capacities are the ultimate choice for reef or saltwater fishermen.
