Shimano - VANFORD 2500HG + Assassin - Supernova 73M

$56800 $66800

The Assassin Supernova 73M paired with the Shimano Vanford 2500HG is a premium finesse combo designed for softbaiting and light inshore fishing. The Supernova 73M rod delivers unmatched sensitivity and lifting power with its ultra-high-grade HMC double-taper blank, while the Vanford 2500HG reel provides ultralight balance, fast retrieves, and Shimano’s latest engineering. Together, they create a perfectly balanced setup for trout, kahawai, trevally, and snapper on softbaits or small lures in NZ waters.

  • Ultra-high-grade HMC blank – double-taper design for maximum sensitivity and lifting power.
  • 7'3" Medium power rod – versatile for estuary and inshore softbaiting.
  • Fuji Alconite guides – braid-optimised for smooth casting and durability.
  • Custom directional casting handle – enhanced grip, comfort, and control.
  • 2-piece construction – portable without sacrificing strength or feel.
  • Shimano Vanford 2500HG – featherlight at 180g with high-speed 6.0:1 gearing.
  • 9kg max drag & 89cm retrieve – fast pickup and reliable stopping power.
  • MagnumLite Rotor & Long Stroke Spool – crisp startup and longer casting distance.
  • Micromodule II & SilentDrive – buttery smooth, refined cranking.
  • X-Protect & HAGANE Gear – water resistance, strength, and durability.
