Originating from the highly pressured bass waters of Japan, bait finesse is a specialized technique to make small baits do big numbers. Where anglers must have very tight control on these small very natural-looking lures and baits that are often ⅛-ounce or lighter. To be able to do that or even cast these smaller lures anglers need the right tools set up for just that, so Abu Garcia’s new Zenon BFS reels are built just to do that. MSRP for the reel is $549.95 and the reel is available in two gear ratio options.
Additionally, Abu Garcia has brought out three models of the BFS rods to go with the reels. All three of them feature premium carbon blanks impregnated with the exclusive Powerlux 100 resin system. This lets the rods be ultra-light and sensitive, but still capable of putting the heat on fish. These rods also feature a custom-designed reel seat that delivers hypersensitivity around the exposed blank sections and improve comfort for full days of fishing. MSRP for the rods starts at $449.95 and comes with a 5-year limited warranty.
