Shimano is undeniably one of the best in the business when it comes to rod and reel construction. The new Shimano 7' FXS-70MB2 (2 pc) spinning rods are Fast Action, Medium Power (Line Wt. = 6-14 lbs.). Highly versatile, these FXS rods can be used in a wide variety of river, stream, lake, or saltwater applications with mono, flouro, or braid. Supported by highly favorable ratings, and known for their dependability, reliability, and durability, these FXS spinning rods pair up perfectly with their Shimano FX4000FB spinning reel mates.
The Shimano FX4000FB spinning reel gets great positive reviews from its users, & is rightfully considered by many to be among the best spinning reels around. One of the reasons for its popularity is the high quality materials used in its making, and another is that Shimano definitely did not skimp on employing the latest technologies available in order to obtain the best performance at a very affordable price. Equipped with well researched extras that are featured in the more expensive models, the Shimano FX4000FB is quite possibly the best "bang for your buck" of any spinning reel ever made. Anglers used to have to sacrifice advanced features like anti-reverse, but those days are gone. Now, the only thing anglers are missing is refinement because all Shimano reels come today with the complete range of basic features. The Shimano FX4000FB spinning reel incorporates the application of Shimano's vast knowledge and experience at an unbelievably low price, and you are the benefactor.
Like the FXS rod, the FX4000FB spinning reel can be used effectively in a wide variety of river, stream, lake, or saltwater applications with mono, flouro, or braid. The reel has a Gear Ratio of 4.6:1; a Maximum Drag of 13 lbs.; Line Capacity (lbs.-yds.) = 12-160; PowerPro Braided Line Capacity (lbs./yds.) = 30-175; Retrieval is interchangeable; Recovery = 28" per crank; Weight = 12 oz.
The FX4000FB spinning reels are brand new, fresh out of the clam. They are spooled with new 12 lb. Berkley Trilene XL Smooth Casting Clear Mono Line, or 20 lb. KastKing SuperPower Blue Braid, or 30 lb. PowerPro Moss Green Braid.
Buy these components, and you will pay $25.22 ($17.99 + $1.26 tax + $5.97 VS) for a Shimano 7' FXS-70MB2 spinning rod (2 pc) and $37.76 ($29.99 + $1.80 tax + $5.97 VS) for the Shimano FX4000FB spinning reel, a total of $62.98 for the rod and reel. Add the cost of the line, $10.91 ($7.49 + $0.45 tax + $2.97 VS) for the 12 lb. Berkley Trilene XL Line, $16.93 ($13.96 + $2.97 VS) for the 20 lb. KastKing SuperPower Blue Braid, $23.62 ($17.59 + $1.06 tax + $4.97 VS) for the 30 lb. PowerPro Moss Green Braid, and you come up with the following totals:
1 combo with 14 lb. XL = $73.89 ($62.98 + $10.91), 2 combos = $147.78;
1 combo with 20 lb. KK = $79.91 ($62.98 + $16.93), 2 combos = $159.83;
1 combo with 30 lb. PP = $86.60 ($62.98 + $23.62), 2 combos = $173.20
Note that the difference in price is a function of the line selected, with XL mono being the lowest price ($10.91), and PowerPro, state-of-the-art braid (made from the same material as bullet-proof vests) being the highest price ($23.62).
