Light 8ft Bream and Whiting Combo Shimano Sedona and Catana Rod

Light 8ft Bream and Whiting Combo Shimano Sedona and Catana Rod  

When it comes to light Bream and Whiting fishing this is our pick of the Catana rod range. The 802 Bream is perfect for fishing very light weight for Bream and Whiting in shallow estuaries where fish are fussy and shy and the length allows you to throw the light weight or unweighted baits far. The rod also has a nice soft tip to help you see and feel the bites. The combo will also throw small lures a mile thus making it a great all round combo. The reel is the Shimano Sedona 2500 and is a long lasting tough little reel and comes spooled with Daiwa J Braid X8 6lb 150m Chartreuse, a good casting line that won't fail on you. 

This Combo Includes.

• Shimano Sedona 2500
• Shimano Catana 802 2-4kg
• Daiwa J Braid X8 150m 6lb

The Reel 

Shimano Sedona 2500

The iconic Shimano Sedona has stepped up a gear for 2017 with the new FI series. In the pursuit of engineering excellence, Shimano has again raised the standard with the incorporation of the Hagane cold forged gear. By leveraging Shimano’s unique metalworking technologies, 200 tons of pressure is applied to the raw metal, resulting in a perfectly formed gear that is free from any machine cutting or imperfections. This transformation process is unlike any other in the world and was once reserved for reels within Shimano’s premium range. This is why the introduction of Hagane Gear into the Sedona series represents a significant step towards the ultimate in smooth, strong and durable fishing reels. In addition to Hagane Gear, the Sedona FI series features G Free Body, developed to shift the reel’s center of gravity closer to the rod, improving casting performance and reducing angler fatigue. To further promote casting performance, Shimano’s AR-C Spool design produces longer casting distances and prevents the formation of backlashes and wind knots, whilst Varispeed II ensures even line lay, making the Sedona FI ideal for braided and monofilament line use. Dedicated to all light tackle pursuits, ranging from bream on bait to snapper on plastics. With 6 models in the series ranging from 1000 up to 5000 sizes, all feature 3+1 bearings and the drag output varies between 3kgs and 11kgs depending on the model. When compared to the previous Sedona FE model, the Sedona FI boasts a significant upgrade with Hagane Gear, a redesigned rotor that is lighter and an improved drag output on the 3000 through to the 5000 sizes. Drawing upon the benefits of Shimano’s market leading technologies and finished in stunning silver and gold cosmetics, the Sedona FI represents exception value at a price point that is accessible to all anglers.
