Everything about this rod is purpose built and no effort has been spared to make it a serious big fish fighting tool. The rod features full Fuji SiC guides that sit on our propriety Shimano guides grooves to prevent twisting. It also comes with a Cascon Grip and a lightweight Fuji plate type reel seat.
The fixed part of the floating guide is thick-walled and knurled to prevent guide distortion caused by torque applied during casting.
Grip shape to bring out the caster's long casting ability and the rod's long casting performance. Special rubber type to prevent slipping.
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.
