Trabucco

TRABUCCO AIRTEK FLAT is a floating feeder designed for technical fishing in the upper water layers or shallow environments, making it highly effective during both summer and colder seasons. In summer, when fish tend to feed close to the surface, the Airtek Flat allows anglers to release bait and groundbait directly into the same water column where the hook is positioned, improving feeding concentration and fishing efficiency. During winter in shallow waters, this floating feeder provides a controlled and natural presentation while keeping the baited area compact and accurate. Ideal for use with groundbait, maggots, or pellets, its modern feeder fishing design ensures a precise and even bait release. For maximum casting accuracy and tighter bait concentration, the use of the reel line clip is recommended. Supplied individually in blister packaging, the Trabucco Airtek Flat is a practical and highly effective solution for precision feeder fishing.

Shimano

Precision, power and control. The new Shimano Curado DC A 151 combines the proven toughness of the Curado family with advanced casting-control technology designed to make every cast more intuitive, efficient and consistent. At the heart of the reel is the i-DC4 Digital Control system, a self-powered microcomputer that electronically manages spool speed throughout the cast. By continuously controlling spool rotation, the system helps the angler maintain a more controlled cast while reducing the risk of backlash and keeping the presentation focused on the target. Adjusting the reel is quick and straightforward. The external selector provides four dedicated modes for different fishing situations: maximum casting distance, braided line, fluorocarbon or stiffer lines, and maximum control for precision techniques such as skipping. This versatility makes the Curado DC easy to adapt as line type, lure weight and fishing conditions change. The compact and well-balanced design features a rigid aluminium HAGANE Body, delivering a strong, solid feel while maintaining excellent ergonomics. Its palm-friendly profile provides a comfortable and secure grip, making precise reel control easier throughout long fishing sessions. Underneath the compact body, MicroModule Gearing and X-SHIP combine to deliver smooth, powerful and efficient retrieve performance. The MGL III spool, supported by S3D and Silent Tune technologies, helps reduce vibration and optimize spool rotation for a smoother and more stable casting response. The Curado DC A 151 is equally focused on performance when the fish is hooked. Its Cross Carbon Drag delivers smooth, progressive and consistent drag pressure, providing the confidence needed to control aggressive runs and sudden changes of direction. The versatile 150 size is available in three gear-ratio configurations — MG, HG and XG — allowing anglers to select the retrieve speed best suited to their technique, lure presentation and fishing style. The result is a refined and intuitive baitcasting reel that combines Shimano engineering with intelligent casting control, giving anglers greater confidence from the first cast to the final fight. Curado DC A 151: when Shimano technology works with your technique, every cast becomes more controlled.

When trolling becomes a technical challenge, a rod that combines lightness and control can completely transform the fight. The Shimano Tyrnos C Trolling Lite is designed for exactly this purpose: delivering high-level performance with light tackle while maximizing sensitivity and sporting enjoyment without sacrificing power. Its semi-parabolic action allows the blank to load progressively under pressure, engaging the entire rod throughout the fight. The smooth loading curve helps maintain consistent pressure on the fish while allowing the angler to respond precisely to fast runs and sudden changes of direction. Whether using live bait or lures, the Tyrnos Trolling Lite is engineered to react quickly to aggressive strikes and turn every bite into a technical and highly engaging fight. Amberjack, dentex, grouper and other powerful predators can put the tackle under serious pressure, but the blank combines responsiveness with the power reserve required to maintain control. At the heart of the rod is a high-performance Full Carbon blank, built using HPC (High Pressure Carbon) technology and reinforced with Biofibre. This construction delivers a remarkably lightweight feel in the hand while providing excellent strength when the load increases. Twist Control technology enhances blank stability by reducing unwanted twisting under pressure and promoting more direct and efficient power transfer. This becomes especially important when fishing with light lines and powerful drag settings. Fuji K Type Alconite guides, arranged in a spiral configuration, complete the system by helping maintain smooth line flow while reducing blank twist and optimizing load distribution. The Pac Bay aluminium reel seat provides a secure and reliable connection with the trolling reel, while the EVA handle delivers a comfortable and secure grip during intense fights. Lightweight, responsive and purpose-built for trolling, the Tyrnos C Trolling Lite brings Shimano engineering to the world of light-tackle sport fishing. More sensitivity on the strike. More control during the fight. More excitement when a predator commits to the bait.

A special spinnerbait special combines that combines double vanes and a clever design. The Bantam Swagy TW, the arms are made with wires of different thicknesses to improve the action and the head is a combination of two different metals to create greater balance and stability. The lower arm is made with 0.95 mm wire, designed to stabilize the center of gravity and ensure a solid swimming position and maneuverability, while the upper arm, which holds the paddles, is 30% thinner (0 60 mm) and more flexible to maximize the transition of movement and vibration up to the skirt. This design is further enhanced by the construction of the head, which is made with a combination of lightweight tin at the top and heavier tungsten at the bottom. This improves recovery stability and returns the Bantam Swagy TW to the correct position after hitting obstacles and on the bottom.
