About this combo

This ready-to-fish softbaiting combo pairs the Assassin Infinity 72H Softbait Rod with the Daiwa 25 Caldia LT4000-CXH reel and XBRAID Upgrade X8 Pentagram braid — delivering the sensitivity, power, and line performance needed to cast and work soft plastic lures effectively.

Rod: Assassin - Infinity 72H Softbait Rod

The Infinity 72H is a 7'2" heavy-action softbait rod purpose-built for casting and working soft plastics. Its responsive blank loads cleanly on the cast and transmits subtle lure feedback directly to your hands. The heavy rating gives you the backbone to drive hooks and control fish in demanding conditions without sacrificing feel.

Reel: Daiwa - 25 CALDIA LT4000-CXH

The 2025 Caldia LT4000-CXH brings Daiwa's Light & Tough construction to a reel built for serious inshore use. The CXH designation means an extra-high gear ratio for fast line pick-up — critical when snapping slack after a cast or burning a soft plastic back to the surface. A smooth drag system handles aggressive runs without compromising retrieve consistency.

Line: XBRAID - UPGRADE X8 PENTAGRAM

The XBRAID Upgrade X8 Pentagram is an 8-carrier braid built around a pentagram cross-section for a rounder, smoother profile. This construction reduces guide friction for longer casts and improves knot strength — both essential when working soft plastics at distance. Its low stretch keeps you in direct contact with the lure at every stage of the retrieve.

Together these three components form a balanced, technique-specific softbaiting setup suited to anglers who want precision and performance. Add to cart and fish it straight out of the box.
