The Reel
The new and improved Shimano Dendou Maru Plays 4000 Electric Reel is now designed with HAGANE BODY technology meaning more rigid tolerances and a stronger frame that reduces twist under load. The Plays 4000 also features the Heat Free System that greatly reduces heat under load and keeps the reel performing. The large Fine Dot LCD screen improves readibility in most light conditions. Precision S-ARB bearings and Super Free Spool technology to reduce friction and heat when dropping baits in to the benthos.

LCD On-Screen Display
Large LCD Display with on-screen information such as program, lineout, power and other relevant information.

HAGANE Body
HAGANE Body means this reel has a high rigidity and zero twist. The body stiffness and impact resistance virtually eliminates body flexing. The result transforms the anglers actions directly into cranking power. It's efficiency through strength.

Shielded Anti-Reverse Bearings
These bearings have been through the same process as the A-RB bearings, but feature shields on both sides of the bearings that reduce the possibility of salt or sand inhibiting the bearings' rotation.

Super Free
The Super Free bearing-supported pinion gear system (SF) was designed to eliminate friction on the spool shaft during the cast. In standard baitcasting reels, when the clutch bar is pressed down, the pinion gear is freed and can actually drag on the spool shaft, creating friction and limiting the length of the cast. With SF, the pinion gear is supported by a ball bearing and when the clutch is disengaged the pinion hear and spool shaft are kept in precise alignment. The result is zero friction on the spool shaft for increased freespool.

The Rod
The team at Shimano Fishing NZ have developed a dynamic and versatile series of rods that has been designed to fit directly in to the kiwi market. The Shimano Vortex Bent Butt Deep Drop Rod is made with a Power-Carbon blank specially designed to take the knocks. And what's more it has an integrated glass tip to retain sensitivity from the bite to the fight and also enhance overall performance without compromise.
