SHIMANO BAITRUNNER OC
The Baitrunner OC is a powerful and reliable Baitrunner reel that offers an excellent balance of durability and price. Originally designed for saltwater fishing, this reel has also proven itself perfectly in freshwater fishing, especially in situations where extra power and reliability are needed.
It is an excellent choice for anglers who fish for large fish – catfish, pike, or carp. The classic Baitrunner free spool system allows the fish to freely take the bait, while a single turn of the handle instantly disengages the system and the fight with the fish begins.
The reel is made from XT-7 composite material, which ensures a good balance of strength and weight. Together with the AR-C spool and Varispeed line lay system, it provides stable line placement and smooth line release during casting.
