Product Description
THE REEL
The new range of Nexave reels feature Shimano's Propulsion Line Management System which makes them suitable for fishing with both mono and braided line. The specially designed angled spool lip allows the line to freely leave the spool in smaller coils with less friction to make longer and more accurate casts. This series also features Shimano's G-Free Body technology which benefits anglers with less fatigue and enhanced casting comfort by shifting the centre of gravity closer to the angler's hand.

THE BRAID
Kairiki 8 from Shimano adopts the new VT construction braiding technology. Featuring 8 carriers and incorporating premium Japanese manufacturing, the new tight weave VT construction is created through applying high tension at opposing directions during the braiding process. During the VT Construction Method, the braid fibre is woven evenly at all angles – resulting in a smoother finish and reduced diameter. The casting performance of the line is significantly improved as the smooth finish creates less friction through the guides and cast noise is also reduced. The tight weave achieves enhanced sensitivity achieved through the lower stretch. These attributes make Kairiki 8 an excellent choice when high sensitivity and castability are all required to give that extra edge against your target species.
