Shimano Biocraft XR Fly Predatr Bt 8'3 #8

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 represents a unique blend of technology and fishing expertise. Lightweight, responsive, and perfectly finished, the Biocraft XR stands out among its price range and competes seriously with some of America's high-priced competitors. With 25 models available, there is something for everyone, from fine rods to powerful options for fishing exotic species.

At the heart of every Biocraft XR is an impressive combination of exclusive Shimano carbon technology, designed to achieve the perfect action for each 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, along with 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 have been selected for their performance characteristics. Seaguide and Fuji SIC guides ensure a balance of lightness and strength, while the custom Seaguide reel seats blend seamlessly with traditional cork handles. Each rod comes with a velvet bag and a hardcase carry tube.

To truly appreciate the Biocraft XR, you need to handle it and test its capabilities. Only then will you fully recognize the performance of a rod that costs half the price of its competitors. Biocraft XR - born to fly!
