Powerful, light and sensitive
The Shimano Tekota 500 A-HG and Vortex Boat Combo
is a fantastic combo for fisho looking for bang for their buck. The
Shimano Tekota 500 A-HG Baitcast Reel features vast improvements
including Coreprotect water resist to increase corrosion
resistance, an easy to replace anti-fogging lens (LC models), loud
clicker and new ergonomic S-Compact body design. Plus it comes with
the strong Vortex Boat Rod.
The Reel
Tekota’s legacy of durability continues with the fully redesigned
Shimano Tekota 500 A-HG Baitcast Reel. Vast
improvements have been made, including Coreprotect water resist to
increase corrosion resistance, an easy to replace anti-fogging lens
(LC models), loud clicker and new ergonomic S-Compact body
design.
Hagane Body
The Hagane Body is a metal reel body with high rigidity. The body
stiffness and impact resistance virtually eliminates body flexing.
The result transfrorms your actions directly into cranking power.
It’s efficiency through strength.
S-ARB
These bearings have been through the same process as our A-RB
bearings, but feature shields on both sides of the bearings that
reduce the possibility of salt or sand inhibiting the bearing’s
rotation.
CoreProtect
Total protection. The concept of CoreProtect is simple – to provide
water resistance without creating a heavy rotation feeling. There
are three key ares of the reel that require protection: the roller
clutch, body, and line roller.
Cross Carbon Drag
This drag material provides a wider range of drag settings, along
with the smoothest Shimano drag performance ever.
The Rod
The Shimano Vortex Overhead Rod is a dynamic and
versatile rod that has been designed to fit directly into the Kiwi
lifestyle. This rod features a Power-Carbon blank specially
designed to take the knocks, an integrated glass tip so as to
retain sensitivity from the bite to the fight and also 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!
