BaitRunner: Another Twist to the Unparalleled Shimano Reels

For any fishing enthusiast, the fishing reel is a vital part of one’s success while looking for the big catch. Like every talented sportsman, one can never be too good not to need the best equipment. Here’s where Shimano Reels come in. Shimano, the leading maker of fishing gear, has created another twist to its unparalleled reels. The BaitRunner B Series. For those of you who need to understand what makes a baitrunner different, the idea is like this: A baitrunner is a spinning reel alike in some aspects to a fixed spool reel, only that the baitrunner allows you to bait fish with a closed bail yet keep the reel in total free spool.

The Shimano BaitRunner spinning reels are very durable and are available in 3 models to cater to its users’ varying needs. The 3500, which has a 4:7:1 gear ratio and a line capacity of 8/305; 12/230; 14/185, the 4500, which has a gear ratio of 4:8:1 and a line capacity of 14/295; 17/250; 20/195 and the 6500, which has a gear ratio of 4:2:1 with a line capacity of 20/270; 25/230; 30/185. That means, the bigger the fish, the bigger the number of the series model.

The BaitRunner B Series comes from the BaitRunner Classic line of reels. What the Shimano designers did was take the classic BaitRunner, put on their thinking caps and made it better. Baitrunner’s manufacturer, Shimano, has maintained its standard of excellence over the years. Its market has expanded to so many continents that its products have literally been used by avid sport fishing fans all over the world. There have been 2 to 3 times more record catches with Shimano gear than any other brand of fishing equipment. Shimano has never been absent in any award list made by the International Convention of Allied Sportfishing Trade, more popularly known as ICAST. In fact, Shimano American has been given the Best of Show award July of this year.

Many a sport fishing lover gave rave reviews about this new reel series from Shimano. One review said that the Baitrunner is great when used with a circle hook rig. Another satisfied customer said that he was impressed with the live bait feature. Another one was taken by the Shimano Baitrunner’s smooth drag pressure. You’ll have to try it to believe it. And even beginners feel confident fishing using the Baitrunner. So whether you are a novice or an expert fisherman, the Baitrunner is the reel for you.
