The Shimano Bassterra LRF rod is made from a full carbon blank using Diaflash material for better casting response and fishing playing performance. The blanks are formed to a medium action to give enhanced long ranged casting performance from either the shore or boat. The rod uses Seaguide XOG stainless steel guides that are resistant to corrosion and help reduce line tangles. The reel seat uses a VSS seat and EVA foam handle.
The Shimano 8′ Bassterra LRF is a versatile rod and is suitable for delicate presentation of all maner of small lures.
