Shimano Tranx and Anthem Heavy Overhead Combo

Shimano Tranx and Anthem Heavy Overhead Combo

This heavy overhead setup is ideal for most offshore fishing applications, you can drop deadbaits for Snapper and Pearl Perch, livebaits for Trag and Mulloway, jig for Kingfish and Amberjack, or even cast small stickbaits for Mahi Mahi. It is a good combo if you are looking to kill a flock of birds with one stone! If you are looking to add a versatile combo to your arsenal the Tranx and Anthem is ideal. The Shimano Tranx is well sealed due to technology such as coreprotect making it ideal for offshore fishing as reels tend to recieve heavy spray, especially on days with strong winds or big swell. The Anthem rods have a strong backbone and are comfortable to fight fish with. The combo is spooled with Shimano PowerPro, a strong, slick braid popular amongst the staff at Ottos Tackle World. We feel the Tranx 300 combo is ideal for Snapper fishing, weather the angler is casting plastics or baits, and also Mahi Mahi fishing as the extra length in the Anthem 30-50lbs will allow the angler to cast lures and livebaits further with ease. 

This Combo Includes:

- Shimano Tranx 300HG

- Shimano Anthem SW 6ft9 30-50lbs 

- Shimano PowerPro 300yards mossy green 50lbs
