Shimano 6500b Baitrunner / Aquatip 12kg Surf Combo 14'
An excellent Surfcasting set, for all the shimano fans
Shimano 6500BTR Baitrunner
As the name suggests, Shimano’s ground-breaking BaitRunner threadline was designed with bait fishing in mind. The body is made of light-weight and non-corrosive graphite, there’s an aluminium spool with a line keeper clip, three A-RB bearings and one roller bearing, stainless steel spool shafts, collapsible handle assemblies, as well as waterproof, heat dissipating front drags with non-centring bails.
But it’s the BaitRunner function that has endeared these reels to anglers right around Australia. Imagine a fish picking up a live or dead bait - completely unaware that there is anything suspicious about it - with the BaitRunner mechanism keeping just enough tension to control the line prior to the strike. Flick the lever or turn the handle, lift the rod and the fight is on! There’s also a tension adjustment knob at the rear of the reel that takes care of active live baits or when fishing in strong currents.
When distance casting is a factor, there’s the Big BaitRunner Long Cast. Most notable is its shallow, tapered spool. A product of the tournament casting scene, this unusual design adds considerable distance to a cast, as line peels from the spool with minimum resistance - making it the ideal choice for rock and beach anglers alike.

POWER ROLLER - This is an oversized line roller that reduces twist from casting and retrieving and is enhanced with a tapered area on the support to help line get onto the roller quicker.
DYNA BALANCE - This feature eliminates wobble during the retrieve by counter balancing the rotor to enhance sensitivity and smoothness. By using computer balancing, an approach similar to car tire balancing, we are able to redistribute the rotor weight to create smooth rotation and eliminate vibrations caused by the reel.
A-RB - A-RB (Anti-Rust Bearings) are made of Stainless Steel that has been through the A-RB process.
* At least 10 times more corrosion resistant than standard Stainless Steel ball bearings.
* Easy Maintenance-no shield design allows for easy flushing of debris and easy lubrication.
* Increased Bearing Speed-no shield design and lighter viscosity lubrication reduce friction and allow the bearing to spin faster and longer.
SUPER STOPPER II - Super Stopper II anti-reverse uses a one-way bearing that eliminates backplay.This provides the angler with instant hooksetting power. In some reels, the Super Stopper II can be turned off to allow backreeling for special techniques and situations.
