Shimano Heavy Offshore Jig Spin Combo

This is a high-quality heavy offshore allrounder combo that's perfect for those looking to fish up a weight class and target some real monsters with high-quality fit-for-purpose gear that will last if looked after. It's fit for spinning lures, jigging lures, or casting stick baits. Typical species you could target with this include big Kingfish, Tuna, Spanish Mackerel, GTs, and more. The 50-80lb rod is quite solid and definitely capable of handling the 80lb braid that's spooled onto the 14000 size reel. The braid is a smooth 8-carrier with colour change every 10m so if you are jigging you know exactly how deep you're dropping, and it's also great for casting as well.
