Perfect balance between power and sensitivity
The Shimano TR 2000LD and Backbone Elite Boat
Combo is a great rod and reel combo if you’re out to
target Kingfish, troll for Albacore and tame the monster Hapuka of
the deep. Featuring Shimano’s powerful Charter Special TR2000 reel
and tough yet sensitive Backbone Elite rod, taking on fish is what
this combo’s all about. The reel’s well-crafted machinery
complements the rod’s reliably tough performance.
The Reel
There are many anglers who yearn for a powerful saltwater reel but
still prefer the convenience of an easy to operate drag mechanism
and a reliable levelwind. It is for these anglers that Shimano
built the Shimano Charter Special TR2000 Lever Drag
Reel. Designed to take a beating, this reel offers plenty
of performance and easy to use features all with a very reasonable
price tag. From a massive, heavy-duty levelwind mechanism that just
will not jam and that spreads line evenly across the aluminium
spool, to the light but strong XT7 body, this reel is up to coping
with the worst treatment that inexperienced fishos can dish out.
For more experienced anglers then, this reel will continue to
provide faultless service for many years to come.
The Charter Special may not be as flashy or feature rich as some of
the other reels in the Shimano lineup, but it continues to be a
popular for saltwater anglers looking for a straightforward to
operate and trustworthy levelwind reel.
The Rod
The new Shimano Backbone Elite Overhead Boat Rod
continues Shimano’s dedication to producing superb-quality rods.
This rod is built with an exceptionally high-quality 24/30 ton
graphite blank. This medium fast action rod is finished with
top-quality guides and bindings. The Shimano Backbone Elite
Overhead Boat Rod offers a perfect balance between power
and sensitivity. It gives you all the muscle you need to land your
big catch.
