The Game Type LJ is one of Shimano’s most advanced jigging rods and is available in both fixed spool and round (multiplier) reel options. The ultra lightweight, slim, highly technical blanks have a remarkable balance of power, strength and responsiveness, which increase the ability to animate jigs more effectively and reduce fatigue and tiredness when fishing.
You will be astounded by the look and feel of the Game Type LJ. It really doesn’t seem possible that a rod so light and responsive can actually fight some of the oceans hardest fighting fish but it can, as has been proved on many occasions around the world. Designed to be used with lighter jigs in the 50-160g range, if you are the type of angler who likes to fish as light as possible, to get maximum enjoyment from your fishing, this is the rod to choose.
The ultra lightweight high modulus carbon blanks of the Game Type LJ feature Spiral X Core and Hi-Power X, which combine to increase torsional and structural rigidity. This is really important when jigging as it ensures the power is transferred correctly through the rod with minimal twisting. The 1+1 section construction, with separate handle, allows easy transport whilst retaining the perfect one-piece jigging and fish-playing action. Available in both round reel and fixed spool reel versions, they feature a mix of Fuji SiC K-Type and Shimano's X-Guide 3D Titanium guides. With a responsive tip and powerful butt, both models are suitable for all jigging and jerking techniques, including slow and fast one-pitch jerks and variable speed combination jerks. Additionally, the elasticity of the blank and fish-playing action enables the Game Type LJ to be used for the most powerful fish.

FEATURES

SPIRALXCORE_RD
SPIRAL X CORE

Spiral X Core is Shimano's newest and most advanced blank construction technology. By integrating Spiral X carbon tape construction with Toray Nanoalloy® technology, Spiral X Core constructed blanks benefit from up to 10% more torsional rigidity and up to 15% more compressional rigidity than rods built with Spiral X. Shimano is unique to the market by applying by high-strength carbon tape with this unique and patented Spiral X construction.


XGUIDE_RD
X GUIDE

The X guide was born from the viewpoint to bring out the potential of blanks to the full. Supporting the guide rings of the tip part is a one-piece structure frame molded with the latest material by 3D technology. Its beautiful shape combines strength with the calculated inclination angle and three-dimensional structure to suppress line entanglement. The tip guides are light and small. In the butt part we have the Aero Titanium X guide which contributes to casting feeling and casting distance. X guide is Shimano's original high performance guide which fused lightness, trouble less, casting performance to higher dimensions.


HI-POWERX_RD
HI-POWER X

Hi-Power X construction uses diagonally-wrapped carbon tape to form an array of "X" shapes on the rod blank's outermost layer. The width of the tape, its winding angle and the part of the rod being wrapped are fine-tuned according to the target fish species. This manufacturing process allows Shimano to adjust these wraps during construction for precise actions, enhanced overall strength and added twist resistance. In short, Hi-Power X construction delivers sharp and crisp rod control for the angler.


HI-POWERXFULLSOLID_RD
HI-POWER X FULLSOLID

HI-POWER X FULL SOLID is a reinforced full solid blanks with the SHIMANO carbon tape construction. The outermost layer of the full solid blanks is reinforced with HI-POWER X carbon tape, and suppresses shaking and power loss due to twisting without hindering the delicate bending of the full solid blanks. This structure will be eliminating the uncomfortable feeling caused by torsion, which is a common problem with full-solid rods, and provides a smooth rod action.


TAFTECINFINITY_RD
TAFTEC INFINITY

TAFTEC INFINITY realizes 3 times the winding strength and 5 times the winding amount of our conventional solid tips. It is a high intensity solid tip that surpasses the strength and sensitivity of Taftec α.


CI4+_RD
CI4+

CI4 is a resin material reinforced with carbon fiber that is lighter and has a higher strength than conventional resin material. CI4+ is an advanced version of the original CI4 material.The rigidity and durability have been greatly improved from original CI4 material while maintaining the lightness of the material, making it possible to reduce the size and weight of the reel.
