Shimano's standard that combines the three elements of "long castability, operability, and power" required for long cast rods in a well-balanced manner. The blanks adopt Shimano's unique basic structure [Spiral X] that achieves both sharp swinging feeling and power. The rod technology cultivated in high-end models and the performance that surpasses the class generously equipped with tone balance can be active in various scenes regardless of the target size in a wide area.
KEY FEATURE
A well-balanced fusion of "long throwability, operability, and power".
"Long castability" that allows you to accurately aim at the offshore tide where the target is lurking. "Operability" that can correct the misalignment of the gimmick due to cross wind etc. with accurate line mending. "Power" that attracts the target at once from offshore and floats it. It was designed with the goal of achieving the three basic performances required for a long throw rod. By reducing the basics related to the important actions in long cast fishing, you can now enjoy more comfortable long cast basket fishing.
A lineup that can be used in a wide range of areas nationwide.
It is an item configuration that covers a variety of basket fishing fishing methods nationwide, such as general basket fishing, Tarukago in the San'in region, Izu region's double axis, Kyushu region's upper basket, and popular light basket on the breakwater. New models such as the supple new 2.5 model with a thin tip that is compatible with talcage and light baskets and a short reel seat position with excellent operability, and a double-axis model that can cast long distances even when using thick nylon. A lineup of items. Designed according to the weight of the cage assumed for each number and the load during casting, it is possible to select a rod suitable for a wider range of fields. In addition, we adopted a guide hold system (#1 to #2) for spinning models 3 to 5, which are expected to cast with high load.
The effect of improving rework by Spiral X.
In long cast basket fishing, the secret to increasing catches is greatly required to improve replay. Accurate cast-recovery-recast, and repeat operations more quickly and reliably. In addition, speed during the fight is required to extend the fishing results in a situation where the bite is standing. Spiral X, which is resistant to twisting and crushing, improves the instantaneous power transmission associated with these movements, contributing to sharp and accurate casting and quick fighting. As a result, the return is improved and the fishing result is greatly assisted.
FEATURE
Overcome twisting and crushing and improve rod performance from the root.
Spiral X has a three-layer structure in which carbon tape is tightly wrapped diagonally in opposite directions on the inner and outer layers of the rod longitudinal fiber. Internal and external oblique fibers allow high torsional and crushing stiffness while maintaining lightness. Shimano's unique "basic structure" that improves instant power transmission in fishing operations such as casting and fighting, maintains lightness and enhances "ground power for catching".
CI4+ is a further evolution of Shimano's original CI4 material reinforced with carbon fiber. It is characterized by being lighter and having higher strength than conventional resin.
