Rod Bassterra Sea Bass

The Bassterra Sea Bass has been specifically developed for Sea Bass angling and offers value beyond comparison. The medium fast action is powerful, responsive and generates excellent casting performance, whilst being versatile enough to fish effectively with both soft plastics and hardbaits.
If you thought a specially designed, high quality Sea Bass rod was out of your budget, you’ll almost certainly have to reconsider your preconceived ideas when you see just how good, and affordable, the Bassterra Sea Bass is. Built on high quality blanks, with the distinctive Diaflash finish, these rods open up specialist Sea Bass fishing to the masses, although we suggest you don’t just limit the use of these rods to just one species. They also make excellent lure rods for other shallow saltwater species to be found throughout Europe.
The distinctive weave that can be seen on the Bassterra Sea Bass is created by Shimano’s exclusive Diaflash technology, which increases power and strength to specific areas of the Full Carbon blank. In the lower part of the rod this is used to generate the power to cast lures to distant feeding fish, or to take total control when playing fish near rocks and other structures. In the tip section it creates increased response which in turn makes lure control more effective and fishing more enjoyable. Available in 4 models covering medium, medium heavy and heavy actions, to cover all of the popular Sea Bass lure sizes from as small as 6g up to large 60g crankbaits and metal jigs, the Bassterra is finished with stainless steel Seaguide XOG guides, a custom designed VSS reel seat and a split EVA handle.

FEATURES

DIA FLASH
DIAFLASH_RD
DIA FLASH

DIAFLASH is a reinforced structure that prevents twisting of the butt section in situations where high-intensity is applied, for example during casting and fighting with fish. Due to the effect of DIAFLASH it becomes possible to convey the pulling power of the angler to the target fish while minimizing the loss of energy by flexing of the butt section.
