I’ve been a cyclist for over ten years now. The only group set I use is Shimano. Their gear is top notch second to none. They are so durable they will last you a lifetime. You can bet your life on it. Actually, I do. Going downhill using a road bike at over 50mph is crazy if you have inferior bike gear. I was surprised that Shimano extended its line into Shimano fishing rods. The only thing I can say is anything Shimano I’ll get. I’m not surprised to hear that Shimano bait cast rods are getting rave reviews.

Shimano bait cast rods are some of the most sought after rods in the business. They are extremely durable and light at the same time. You catch it, it will haul it in. That’s how durable they are. It is also very responsive. You can feel even the faintest of nibble.
