A true household name, the Aquatip range has earned its place as Shimano’s most reliable entry-level rod series, offering Kiwi anglers a sensibly priced selection that covers just about every fishing application imaginable. Designed to deliver exceptional value for money, the Aquatip spin range includes both fibreglass-integrated construction models for ultimate toughness and graphite blank models for enhanced sensitivity, each with versatile, purpose-built actions. For 2025, the entire range has been upgraded to make Aquatip more durable than ever before. All rods now feature forward-facing Zirconia guides for smooth, trouble-free line management, graphite reel seats to keep your reel locked in securely, and quality EVA grips for lasting comfort in all conditions. Graphite blank models have been further refined with lightweight 24-ton carbon construction, improving performance without compromising strength.
