Shimano built the Nexave series of rods with versatility in mind to offer anglers fish-catching actions combined with an elegant look and feel. The Nexave series of spinning rods utilize Titanium Oxide guides to allow for smooth line flow while fishing with monofilament or PowerPro braided lines. The split-grip EVA handles reduce the overall weight of the rods while the incorporation of an uplocking nut increases an angler's comfort when fishing. Available in powers and actions for targeting species from panfish to inshore game fish, the Nexave series of rods perfectly matches the redesigned series of Nexave spinning reels for superior performance on the water.
