Shimano Biocraft XR Fly #4
Fly rod, 274 cmProduct details
Biocraft XR fly rods are the most technologically advanced fly rods ever produced by Shimano, offering a remarkable combination of casting performance, practicality, and excellent value for money. The Biocraft XR showcases a unique blend of technology and fishing knowledge. Lightweight, responsive, and perfectly finished, the Biocraft XR stands out among its price range and competes seriously with some of America's high-priced options. With 25 models available, there's something for everyone, from fine rods to powerful options for exotic fish.
At the heart of each Biocraft XR is an astonishing combination of exclusive Shimano carbon technology, designed to achieve the perfect action for the rod's purpose. The high-modulus blanks are made from HPC, biofibres, nanofibres, and Diaflash in various blends. This combination results in lightness and finesse in stream and lightweight models, as well as unrivaled control power and casting performance in powerful models and two-handed rods.
As expected from a top-of-the-range rod, the blanks are of the highest quality and selected for their performance characteristics. Seaguide and Fuji SIC guides ensure lightness combined with strength, while the Seaguide reel seats blend perfectly with traditional cork handles. Each rod comes with a velvet bag and a hardcase carry tube.
To fully appreciate the Biocraft XR, you'll need to get your hands on it and test it. Only then will you truly understand the performance of a rod that costs half the price of its competitors. Biocraft XR - born to fly!
