Built to provide bass anglers with broad-spectrum versatility, the Cauis C Combo offers the low-profile baitcasting experience anglers should expect from Shimano at an attainable price. Inside the lightweight and compact body of the updated Shimano Caius C reel are proven technologies like the Variable Brake System (VBS) to apply centrifugal force and weights instead of magnets to temper initial spool acceleration. VBS technology enhances the casting experience by enabling the spool to spin freely until the end of the cast, reducing the chance of a backlash. Shimano Super Free Spool technology within Caius C eliminates distance-robbing friction and improves overall casting performance. The Caius rod features modern aesthetics, fast action, and medium-heavy power to provide anglers with a versatile combo. A split-grip design and Titanium Oxide Guides prime anglers for on-water performance no matter the fishing technique they choose when chasing bass.
