About this combo

This ready-to-fish softbaiting combo pairs the Atomic Flickz Spin Medium with the Shimano 26 Nasci C3000HG and XBRAID Upgrade X8 Pentagram braid — everything you need to cast and work soft plastic lures with precision and confidence.

Rod: Atomic - Flickz Spin Medium, 6'10, 2 pc, 10 - 20lb

The Atomic Flickz Spin Medium is a 6'10" two-piece rod rated for 10–20lb, purpose-built for casting and working soft plastics. Its length gives you the reach to cover water, while the medium action loads well through the cast and delivers the tip sensitivity needed to feel light bites and work lures with subtle precision.

Reel: Shimano - 26 NASCI C3000HG

The 2026 Shimano Nasci C3000HG brings proven Shimano engineering to an accessible price point. The C3000 body size is ideal for softbaiting, and the HG (High Gear) retrieve ratio picks up line quickly between hops and lifts — keeping your lure in the strike zone longer and your presentation responsive.

Line: XBRAID - UPGRADE X8 PENTAGRAM

XBRAID Upgrade X8 Pentagram is an 8-carrier braid built around a pentagram weave structure for a round, smooth profile that flows cleanly through guides and reduces friction on the cast. High sensitivity and near-zero stretch make it ideal for softbaiting, transmitting every tap and knock straight back to the angler's hand.

Three components matched for softbaiting performance — grab this combo and get straight to fishing soft plastics with a setup that's balanced, responsive, and ready to go.

Reel

Shimano - 26 NASCI C3000HG

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.
