Shimano Dendou Maru Plays 4000 Electric Reel / Bacbone Elite 24kg Combo

An excellent deep drop Electric combo for fishing bluenose and Hapuku off the deep dropoffs.

Shimano Dendou Maru Plays 4000HP Electric Reel

Once the exclusive preserve of commercial fishermen, recreational anglers are now investigating the deep reefs that lie either side of the Continental Shelf drop off, which are home to deepwater ooglies like blueye trevalla, gemfish, hapuka, bass groper and cod. Now, winding a massive sinker and even just a single big fish up out of 70 to 150 fathoms of water requires a lot of effort, but the Shimano Dendou Maru Plays electric overhead takes the hard work out of it.

Powered by a 12 volt battery, the Dendou Maru’s stainless steel gears are up to the strain of dealing with heavy sinkers and big fish in extreme depths, while a programmable line counter helps to let you know how deep you are fishing, and a levelwind lays the line evenly on the spool. For the purists, it’s possible to disengage the 12 volt motor and make use of the Power Handle to retrieve line if you wish, but having that electric power there sure makes life easier.
