About this combo

This ready-to-fish softbaiting combo pairs the Atomic Arrowz Offshore Spin with the Shimano 26 Nasci C3000HG and XBRAID Upgrade X8 Pentagram line — everything you need to cast, work, and feel every subtle bite through soft plastic lures.

Rod: Atomic - Arrowz Offshore Spin 7', 2 pc, 8 - 16lb Spinning Rod

The Atomic Arrowz Offshore Spin is a 7-foot, 2-piece spinning rod rated 8–16lb, engineered for offshore softbaiting applications. Its responsive blank delivers the sensitivity needed to detect light takes while still loading well enough to work larger soft plastics with authority. The two-piece design makes it travel-friendly without compromising action, and the 8–16lb rating gives it genuine versatility across a wide range of lure weights and target species.

Reel: Shimano - 26 NASCI C3000HG

The 2026 Shimano Nasci C3000HG is a compact, high-gear-ratio spinning reel built to handle the demands of active lure fishing. The HG designation means faster line retrieve per handle turn — ideal for quickly taking up slack and maintaining contact with your soft plastic during the retrieve. Shimano's proven internal components deliver smooth drag performance and reliable operation session after session, making this reel a serious performer at its price point.

Line: XBRAID - UPGRADE X8 PENTAGRAM

XBRAID Upgrade X8 Pentagram is an 8-carrier braided line constructed using a pentagram weave for exceptional roundness, smoothness, and casting distance. The tight braid structure reduces wind knots and guides friction, translating into longer, more accurate casts with soft plastics. Its minimal stretch gives you direct, immediate feedback — critical for detecting the lightest touch bites when working lures through the water column.

Together, these three components form a balanced, high-performance softbaiting setup suited to anglers targeting inshore and offshore species on soft plastics. Grab yours and hit the water ready to fish.

Shimano

The Shimano 26 NASCI C3000HG is a refined evolution in Shimano’s spinning reel lineup, delivering premium performance at a mid-entry price point. Built with the upgraded robust HAGANE Gear and X-SHIP technology, this reel offers smoother winding under load, making it a top-tier choice for New Zealand anglers tackling inshore species. Its sleek, dark aesthetic is matched by internal durability, featuring CoreProtect to repel water from critical components without adding heavy rotation resistance. Specifically designed for the versatility required in NZ waters, the C3000HG (Compact Body, High Gear) is the quintessential "all-rounder" size. It balances perfectly on 7ft–7ft 6in softbait sets for targeting Snapper over the kelp or drifting wash. The high gear ratio allows for rapid line retrieval, essential when working soft plastics quickly or clearing the line when a Kahawai runs towards the boat. HAGANE Gear – Cold-forged drive gear provides long-lasting smoothness and strength by eliminating flex during fights. Silent Drive Technology – Removes microscopic play in the drive train for an eerily quiet and ultra-smooth rotation. CoreProtect – Water-repellent coating protects the roller clutch and line roller from saltwater intrusion. G-Free Body – Shifts the reel's center of gravity closer to the rod, reducing hand fatigue during long casting sessions. AR-C Spool – Patented spool lip design ensures line leaves the reel with less friction for longer, more accurate casts. High Gear (HG) Ratio – The 6.2:1 gear ratio retrieves 91cm of line per crank, ideal for picking up slack quickly.
