GRAPPLER TYPE BLADE

Throw, reel, and hook.A rod specially designed for blade jigging.

A new series that strikes at the essence of the increasingly popular blade jigging game and pursues the best balance of "throw, reel, and hang" with a unique, exclusive design. The soft tip suppresses blurring even during ultra high-speed retrieves, and provides both cushioning to stabilize the lure's movement and ease of catching bites. Strong trunk, toughness and tracking ability of the blanks catch the target's strong counter attack and support accurate hooking and subsequent stable fighting. The reel seat is designed to be thicker in diameter than conventional light jigging rods. The improved gripping performance allows for a firm grip and supports stable reeling. The rod is not only for vertical fishing but also for casting, and its exquisite balance, which pursues not to be too soft and not to be shaky, enables anglers to capture a variety of targets such as spanish mackerel and bluefish. We hope that you will experience to your heart's content the satisfying blade jigging that is possible only with a rod specially designed for this purpose.

FEATURE 特徴

Perfection sheet XT

Lightweight and highly sensitive reel seat made of CI4+ carbon reinforced material. The light, firm grip reduces the burden on the angler, while the high vibration transmission rate allows linear transmission of underwater information such as bites and current changes. It also supports high performance by keeping anglers focused even when fishing for long periods of time.

Stainless steel frame K guide.
Center cut 2 piece

TECHNOLOGY

SPIRAL X

SPIRALX_RD
SPIRAL X

Through its exclusive lightweight structure, Shimano's patented Spiral X construction enhances catching power for anglers. Spiral X construction consists of three layers: a middle layer of vertical fibers as well as inner and outer layers, both comprised of carbon tape that tightly winds the blank diagonally in opposite directions. By using this carbon tape in place of a conventional horizontal fiber sheet, Spiral X achieves enhanced compression rigidity and increased torsional rigidity without adding extra weight. This in turn facilitates instant power transmission for precise casting and fish fighting.


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.


CI4+_RD
CI4+

CI4 is a Shimano original 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 and is 2.5x more rigid than its predecessor. While improving lightness and rigidity, reel bodies, rotors and reel seats built with CI4+ are further reduced in size and weight.
