Selected from Shimano’s exclusive JDM lineup and crafted with input from top Japanese shore jigging experts, the CurrentSniper XR is a must-try for those seeking the best in shore jigging rods. Its lightweight, perfectly balanced build and impressive responsiveness make it ideal for extreme-distance casting. The moderate-fast action enhances casting power while delivering remarkable sensitivity for precise control when working jigs or hardbait lures. As a flagship rod, the CurrentSniper XR strikes the perfect balance of long-distance casting, lightness, sharpness, and power required for shore jigging and plugging games. It offers high-precision casting, excellent operability, and stable lifting power when fighting large fish.
The CurrentSniper XR comes in a versatile range of lengths and actions. Whether you’re targeting nearshore game fish, distant reefs, or open water from a boat, this rod is built to handle it all. The high-performance characteristics of the CurrentSniper XR come from a High Modulus Full Carbon blank that includes exclusive Shimano Spiral X Core and Hi-Power X technologies, plus Nanopitch. This combination reduces blank twist and enhances casting distance and accuracy, delivering exceptional long-range performance. Shimano’s unique Spiral X-Core technology strengthens the blank, while the screw lock system increases joint strength and makes it easy to disassemble the rod into two pieces. Fuji K-Type Stainless Steel SiC guides enhance casting performance and reduce line wear. The Fuji DPS reel seat, with a double locking nut, ensures secure fixation of all reel sizes, while the full ergonomic EVA handle offers a secure grip, even when wet. The lineup ranges from M to XH powers, suitable for metal jigs and plugs from around 30g to over 100g.
