The flagship Game Type J range offers specific models for regular and slow pitch jigging and is designed for serious jigging anglers around the world. With blanks enhanced with Shimano Spiral X Core and Hi-Power X, the Game Type J jigging rods provide exceptional fishing performance when using lures like Shimano’s Butterfly jigs.
Jigging has now become established as one of the most effective ways to catch aggressive saltwater predators and if you are one of the many anglers to exploit its potential, the Game Type J and Type Slow J models are the perfect tools for you. The Type J models have moderate-fast actions that will enable you to make your lures dance to your rod inputs with remarkable precision, whilst the Type Slow J models have a moderate-slow action perfectly designed for slow pitch presentations.
The Game Type J range incorporates Shimano’s cutting-edge technology to create rods that elevate overall jigging performance by offering exceptional power and sensitivity. Integrating Shimano’s Spiral X Core and Hi-Power X technologies to increase power transmission through the rod, while also reducing rod twist under load, there are two action types designed for normal jigging and slow pitch jigging. As you would expect from such a high quality range, all models are fitted with the best Fuji SiC guides and a custom designed Shimano Ci4 reel seat on a split grip EVA handle. For targeting both pelagic and reef fish, there’s nothing better than Shimano’s Game Type J.
