The Sellus Casting B is a three-model 7-foot baitcasting lineup positioned at the accessible end of the Shimano bass rod range at $64.99. All three blanks are built with DIAFLASH reinforcement - diagonal carbon tape wraps on the outer butt section - to reduce twist and maintain energy transfer despite the lower price point. Each rod carries a fast action, keeping hookset performance consistent across the power range.
The grip system uses a Hybrid Cork and EVA construction that provides a non-slip hold and adds visual contrast compared to straight-EVA grips at the same price tier. Foregrip length is 1 in across all three models, and the rear grip measures 10.2 in on each. Power ratings span medium, medium-heavy, and heavy, covering the main casting-rod applications a bass angler is likely to need as a starting set.
The series sits within the broader Sellus lineup of seven casting and spinning models. All three casting blanks are single-piece, 7 feet in length, and carry Titanium Oxide guides. The H-power model tops out at 1 1/2 oz and 30 lb mono line, making it capable for frog fishing, flipping, and heavier cover work at a price point accessible to newer or budget-conscious anglers.

A closer look at notable models.
7'0" heavy fast. Line 15-30 lb, lure 1/2-1 1/2 oz. The high-end power model in the Sellus casting trio. Covers frogging, flipping heavier jigs, and punching lighter mats. At 30 lb mono capacity it handles braided line applications in heavy cover situations.
7'0" medium fast. Line 8-15 lb, lure 1/4-1/2 oz. The all-purpose option in the Sellus casting lineup. Fast action and medium power handle a broad range of lures from light Texas rigs to spinnerbaits and medium-running crankbaits on standard monofilament or fluorocarbon.
7'0" medium-heavy fast. Line 10-20 lb, lure 1/4-3/4 oz. Steps between the M and H power options; suited to pitching jigs, swimjigs, and soft-plastic punching in lighter cover. The MH power provides enough backbone for firm hooksets without the stiffness of the H blank.
