OUR GOAL, ETERNALLY SMOOTH REELING REEL MANUFACTURING BASED ON THE HAGANE CONCEPT IS SUPPORTED BY THE UNIQUE METALWORKING TECHNOLOGY THAT SHIMANO HAS DEVELOPED OVER THE YEARS.
HAGANE GEAR The HAGANE Drive Gear is produced by SHIMANO’s cold forging technology, without the need for additional machining. This results in gearing parts which retain the characteristics of the pure material, keeping it as strong as possible.
HAGANE BODY HAGANE Body is made out of precision machined aluminium or magnesium. These body designs create stiffness and impact resistance, while at the same time eliminating flexing of the body. The HAGANE Body is highly rigid and protects gear rotation performance from heavy loads and shocks.
BENEFIT This delivers a long lasting smoothness, strength, lightness and power at the very heart of the reel. Traditional die cast machined gears are less durable under heavy loads, but HAGANE Gear is tremendously strong and durable.
BENEFIT The high rigidity makes the reel body very strong, tough and protects the gears and inner workings. At the same time, the body has a low weight and minimal flex, warp or distortion. The result is a rock-solid housing and support for the moving internal gearing and greater efficiency throughout the reel. This helps increase smoothness and powerful reeling.

GEARING TECHNOLOGY
XSHIP X-SHIP stands for Extra Smooth & High Power. It is a precision gearing system which enables smooth yet strong reeling. By supporting the pinion gear at both ends and integrating a bigger drive gear with improved positioning, increased gearing efficiency and power is produced. It results in ultra-light handle rotation combined with excellent power efficiency.
SILENTDRIVE The SilentDrive technology encompasses the total redesign of the internal components to reduce microscopic handle play and eliminating noise and any unnatural feeling from the worm shaft drive. The combination of these redesigned components and extremely fine engineering tolerances produces an extremely smooth and silent reeling sensation.
BENEFIT This enhances the smooth operation of the reel, while at the same time improving power transmission from the handle to the rotor. This means less effort and more power - giving a perfect rotation, even under heavy loads and high pressure. The X-SHIP components are strong, precise and durable.
BENEFIT SilentDrive produces smoother, silent rotation and improved performance. This improves the complete fishing experience of the reel.
SPOOL TECHNOLOGY
MICROMODULE GEAR Micromodule Gearis a gear component made with great precision. The superrefined teeth produce seamless engagement with other gears.
ARC SPOOL AR-C is a spool-lip design technology exclusive to SHIMANO. Through tens of thousands of casting tests and computer simulations, it has been determined that the AR-C spool lip design provides longer casting distances than a standard spool lip design, while preventing backlashes and wind knots. It also allows the line to flow off the spool in smaller loops during the cast, which means less line slap on the first guide.
BENEFIT Micromodule Gear has two advantages: increased smoothness and better sensitivity. This results in accurate performance with improved power transmission.
BENEFIT The AR-C spool ensures the line leaves the spool with a minimum of friction and with small loops. This makes longer casting possible with a reduced chance of knots.

BODY TECHNOLOGY
Ci4+ A Ci4+ Body is made out of Ci4+ composite material with very special characteristics. It is stronger than the original Ci4 and XT-7 graphite, and also lighter in weight. Ci4+ parts are lighter and stronger than any other composite material SHIMANO uses in their products.
G FREE BODY G Free body technology has been developed to shift the reel’s centre of gravity closer to the rod. This has been achieved by moving the oscillation mechanism more towards the top of the reel. By moving the centre of gravity closer to the angler’s hand position, the G Free body helps to reduce fatigue and enhance casting comfort.
BENEFIT The application of a Ci4+ Body results in a lightweight yet strong reel. Reels with a Ci4+ body are ideal for lure fishing when continuous casting is required.
BENEFIT The closer the reel’s centre of gravity is to the rod, the better the combination of rod and reel balance. The reel actually feels lighter, because the weight is closer the hand. This results in a reel with improved casting balance, which requires less casting effort, which will reduces fatigue when fishing over extended periods.
XPROTECT X-Protect is a water-resistant technology that comes in several forms and is dependent on the reel category and intended usage of each reel. The roller clutch (body area) in large spinning reels works with a “contact style” water resistance. Contact style makes use of a combination of labyrinth construction, rubber gaskets and grease to strongly prevent water from coming into a certain area of the reel. This design makes it possible to achieve up to IPX8 level water resistance for the roller clutch of some larger spinning reels. The roller clutch in smaller reels works with a “non-contact style” water resistance. Non-contact style makes use of a labyrinth structure along with a water repellent material that ensures both light rotation and water resistance performance. Compared to larger reels, smaller reels require sensitivity and a sufficient level of water resistance. The non-contact style protects the reel but does not sacrifice rotation lightness.
COREPROTECT Coreprotect is a SHIMANO technology which is developed to keep water out of the reel, without creating a heavier rotation feeling, in two areas:
BENEFIT X-Protect seals the roller clutch and line roller to prevent water intrusion. This advanced protection technology increases the durability of the reel and gives a high level protection in even the toughest conditions. This ensures good performance for a long time, without affecting the smoothness of the reel when rotating.
BENEFIT Core Protect prevents water entering the body of the reel.This prevents corrosion and other problems with the gearing orother internal parts of the reel.
1. The Roller Clutch Bearing. This is the most critical area when comes to balancing water resistance without affecting the light and smooth rotation. A surface protection coating causes water to bead preventing water from flowing into the small crevices where it can reach the mechanism of the roller clutch bearing. 2. The Line Roller: A line roller with Coreprotect has a design that provides water resistance and low maintenance.

DRAG TECHNOLOGY
BAIL TECHNOLOGY
ONE PIECE BAIL One Piece Bail is a bail arm made from one piece of material, which allows the line to slide very smoothly over it to the line roller. In addition, this one piece construction results in a stronger bail arm, which is much less likely to bend, or even break, under enormous pressure.
RIGID SUPPORT DRAG When hooking a large fish, the smoothness of the initial movement of the drag is the most important to avoid line break. By supporting the spool with the main shaft and two bearing links in the spool, it is possible to suppress the spool’s flutter and to provide stable and smooth drag performance.
BENEFIT Its seamless and incredibly strong design reduces friction and the chance of tangles when in operation. It also enables the line to be quickly located to the roller when engaging the bail arm after a cast.
BENEFIT Rigid Support Drag eliminates spool movement and wobble, even at light drag settings. The result is an incredibly smooth drag even at extremely light settings.

INFINITYXROSS InfinityXross is an advanced drive gear technology that uses wider gear teeth. The increased surface area distributes pressure more evenly across the full face of the teeth as they meet during rotation. Compared to similar sized gears, InfinityXross increases durability without affecting smoothness.
FREE SPOOL
BENEFIT InfinityXross delivers more durability, especially when under extreme pressure, resulting in the increased lifespan of the reel. This enables the reel to work to its maximum ‘original’ performance for longer without degradation.
INFINITYDRIVE InfinityDrive has been introduced to complement the existing X-SHIP system to deliver light and powerful winding. In spinning reels this development reduces the friction of spool oscillation with a special design and combination of parts. As a result, handle rotation resistance is reduced considerably, when compared to a conventional system, resulting in easier winding, even under extreme pressure.
BENEFIT InfinityDrive enables light, but extremely powerful winding, which helps to fight powerful fish in an extreme salt water environment.
BIG PIT SPINNING HEAVY DUTY
INFINITYLOOP InfinityLoop is an ultra slow line oscillation designed for smaller spinning reels. The spool moves up and down very slowly as the rotor wraps line onto it, allowing the line to spool in an almost parallel configuration. This creates a smooth profile that improves line management when casting and also when playing fish.
BAITCASTING MULTIPLIER
BENEFIT InfinityLoop oscillation reduces the speed the line travels up and down the spool on the cast. This results in less friction and vibration as line leaves the spool and reduces drag on the lure, which improves casting distance and accuracy. When playing fish, the line is released from the turning spool more smoothly, increasing control.
ANTITWIST FIN Anti-Twist Fin is an elastic and removable fin placed on the rotor next to the line roller. It is designed to create the perfect tension between the line and the spool and improve line management efficiency, especially when using supple, thin diameter braid and mono. BENEFIT Anti-Twist Fin is especially advantageous for anglers fishing supple, ultra thin braid and mono. If the line between the reel and the lure/lead goes slack when stopping a retrieve, or immediately after casting, the Anti-Twist Fin prevents the line from falling away from the line roller and creating additional slack.

BENEFIT DuraCross Drag is a fantastic combination of feel and durability. It provides enough initial power (spike) to set hooks effectively, with enhanced smoothness and durability for a better fish-playing experience.
BENEFIT Magnumlite Rotor makes the reel lighter, better balanced and it increases the sensitivity. This contributes to an overall improved experience of the reel with better, lighter and smoother reeling.
BAITCASTING
MAGNUMLITE ROTOR The Magnumlite Rotor is an ultra-light improved rotor made out of Ci4+ material. The profile of the rotor is made asymmetrical and the bail arm mechanism, which is usually situated on the same side as the line roller, has been moved to the opposite side. Both of these changes improve the balance.

The VANQUISH is the pure embodiment of the SHIMANO Magnumlite philosophy. It is crafted with the greatest Japanese precision and is designed for those that demand the ultimate out themselves and their equipment. The responsiveness and smoothness of the reel make it perfect for fishing ultra-light techniques for perch, trout and zander. However, the VANQUISH can be used for many different techniques and species, including inshore saltwater spinning in the larger 4000 and 5000 sizes. The VANQUISH will guide you to get the best out of yourself on every adventure. The first thing you’ll experience is the reel’s weight, or rather the lack of it. The mid-sized 3000 only weighs 170g – that’s remarkable and you will notice it. The second, and probably the most pleasing aspect, is just how responsive, sensitive and smooth the reel is. It is perfect for ultra-light techniques for perch, trout and zander. However, the Vanquish comes in many sizes and can be used for many different techniques and species, including inshore saltwater spinning and large crankbait fishing in the larger 4000 and 5000 sizes.

The position of the rear drag adjustment at the rear of the reel makes it very easy to use and many models also feature SHIMANO Fightin’ Drag for even easier adjustment whilst fighting a fish. This allows you to quickly adjust the drag tension by moving the Fightin’ Drag lever to the left or the right, increasing or decreasing the resistance as required.

The iconic SUPER GT combines sleek cosmetics with a very powerful, high torque retrieve making it perfect for larger feeder fishing. Fitted with SHIMANO’s exclusive Fightin’ Drag technology, this is the reel for fighting larger than average fish. If you like to fish for larger than average fish like big tench, large bream, powerful chub or medium sized carp, with either a float or a feeder, the SUPER GT is the ideal choice. The powerful 5.0:1 (2500 size) or the 4.8:1 (4000 size) gear ratio generates impressive winding power and combined with the Fightin’ Drag offers extreme control and versatility when playing hard fighting fish. The smaller 2500 makes a great float or small feeder reel whilst the larger 4000 size is more suited to larger floats and feeders.

Featuring an oversized ‘AERO Concept’ spool, the BAITRUNNER XAERO combines the benefits and convenience of a traditional BAITRUNNER reel with increased casting performance rivalling that of a compact Big Pit reel. If you are a BAITRUNNER reel fan, but want to increase your casting distance, the BAITRUNNER XAERO is a natural progression. The outstanding casting performance is achieved by the use of a large diameter AERO Concept spool. And whilst it won’t achieve the extreme distances achieved by a full sized Big Pit reel, or the ‘Big’ BAITRUNNER models, you’ll be more than impressed with the performance. Available in 3 sizes, the largest 10000 makes a great big water carp reel, the 8000 is perfect for medium sized waters and the smallest 6000 size has a double handle and makes a superb all round specialist reel. Whichever you choose, you are sure to be impressed with the increased performance.

PARALLEL BODY SHIMANO’s Parallel Body technology ensures the rod and reel alignment is perfectly parallel. The axel and spool are parallel to the rod, minimising the amount of line slapping onto the blank between the spool and the first guide during the cast.
SPINNING REAR DRAG FREE SPOOL
BENEFIT Parallel Body increases the overall casting performance of a reel. It makes more precise and longer casting possible, and reduces the potential for tangling because there is less friction and line slap during a cast, especially in the area around the first guide.
BIG PIT SPINNING HEAVY DUTY BAITCASTING MULTIPLIER
SPOOL REDUCERS Spool reducers are plastic bands which are included with some reels (usually reels with a big spool capacity). They can be clicked on the spool, in order to reduce the spool capacity.
BENEFIT Spool reducers reduce the line capacity of the spool preventing excessive use of additional line to achieve the correct spooling profile.

BENEFIT A very accurate and user-friendly free spool system. The angler can change the drag from free spool to fight settings in a split second. This provides optimal control and quick handling during the take and whilst playing a fish.
FREE SPOOL
OSCILLATION Slower spool oscillation reduces the speed the line travels up and down the spool on the cast. This results in less friction as line leaves the spool and reduced drag on the lead, which improves casting distance and accuracy.
SLOW OSCILLATION Up to 35-40 wraps per cycle. This slow oscillation exceeds almost all other manufacturers reels.
SUPER SLOW 5 A minimum of 45-55 wraps per cycle. This makes almost perfect parallel spooling possible and gives a huge improvement in casting distance and precision.
SUPER SLOW 10 A minimum of 95-110 wraps per cycle. This produces parallel line spooling and the best casting distance, control and precision possible.

STANDARD OSCILLATION Up to 20 wraps per cycle. Outperforms the industry standard.

HISPEED DRAG Hi-speed drag is SHIMANO’s fastest drag system and can change the drag setting from free-spool mode to fighting mode with only a very small turn to the knob located on the front of the spool.
BENEFIT A very accurate and user-friendly free spool system. The angler can change the drag from free spool to fight settings in only a split second. This provides optimal control and quick handling during the take and the fight of a fish. It only takes a half turn (180 degrees) of the drag knob to close the drag. It’s incredibly simple, accurate and easy to use.

INFINITYDRIVE InfinityDrive has been introduced to complement the existing X-SHIP system to deliver light and powerful winding. In spinning reels this development reduces the friction of spool oscillation with a special design and combination of parts. As a result, handle rotation resistance is reduced considerably, when compared to a conventional system, resulting in easier winding, even under extreme pressure.

ONE PIECE BAIL One Piece Bail is a bail arm made from one piece of material, which allows the line to slide very smoothly over it to the line roller. In addition, this one piece construction results in a stronger bail arm, which is much less likely to bend, or even break, under enormous pressure.
LONG STROKE SPOOL The Long Stroke Spool design has a longer stroke, compared to conventional spool designs. This long stroke specification results in longer casting distances.
RIGID CAST Rigid Cast technology produces the optimal balance of rigidity and lightness on the main spool shaft to minimise deflection of the spool caused by extreme force during casting.

INFINITYDRIVE InfinityDrive has been introduced to complement the existing X-SHIP system to deliver light and powerful winding. In spinning reels this development reduces the friction of spool oscillation with a special design and combination of parts. As a result, handle rotation resistance is reduced considerably, when compared to a conventional system, resulting in easier winding, even under extreme pressure.
SPINNING HEAVY DUTY
BENEFIT InfinityDrive enables light, but extremely powerful winding, which helps to fight powerful fish in an extreme salt water environment.
XTOUGH DRAG & XXTOUGH DRAG X-Tough Drag is SHIMANO’s toughest drag configuration and incorporates large diameter drag washers at the base of the spool, which provide greater drag stability. The result is smooth and consistent drag performance throughout the fight. The XX-Tough Drag system uses large washers to clamp the spool from both the top and bottom, providing enhanced heat resistance and durability during intense fights with large fish.
BENEFIT X-Tough Drag creates a more durable, smoother drag with increased stability. This results in more assured fish-playing, even in the most extreme circumstances.
BAITCASTING
HEAT SINK DRAG Heat Sink technology enables dissipation of excessive heat build-up when the spool is rotating quickly and keeps the heat away from the spool surface and drag washer where it can cause a reduction in drag performance.
MULTIPLIER
BENEFIT When playing fish under extreme pressure, it is quite common for the drag pressure to reduce in resistance as heat builds up in the spool and drag system due to friction. The Heat Sink technology dissipates heat away from important areas and enables maximum drag performance to be maintained for longer. An additional advantage is it also keeps heat away from your line reducing potential damage.

RIGID SUPPORT DRAG Supporting the spool with the main shaft and two bearing links in the spool reduces spool flutter to provide stable and smooth drag performance, especially in the initial stage of the fight.
BENEFIT Rigid Support Drag eliminates spool movement and wobble, even at light drag settings. The result is an incredibly smooth drag even at extremely light settings.

XPROTECT X-Protect is a water-resistant technology that comes in several forms and is dependent on the reel category and intended usage of each reel. The roller clutch (body area) in large spinning reels works with a “contact style” water resistance. Contact style makes use of a combination of labyrinth construction, rubber gaskets and grease to strongly prevent water from coming into a certain area of the reel. This design makes it possible to achieve up to IPX8 level water resistance for the roller clutch of some larger spinning reels. The roller clutch in smaller reels works with a “non-contact style” water resistance. Non-contact style makes use of a labyrinth structure along with a water repellent material that ensures both light rotation and water resistance performance. Compared to larger reels, smaller reels require sensitivity and a sufficient level of water resistance. The non-contact style protects the reel but does not sacrifice rotation lightness.

BENEFIT Because of the X-Shield water resistant sealing, the reel is protected against water, dirt, salt and dust. That’s really important, because water and foreign objects can affect the functioning of the gearing and other mechanical parts of the reel. X-Shield also increases the life-time and durability of the reel and ensures excellent longevity of performance.

The SPHEROS SW is a remarkable balance between technology and price. Strong enough to handle all inshore and occasional offshore saltwater game fishing, with HAGANE Gearing and Body to match any challenge, the SPHEROS SW-A even has SHIMANO’s top X-Protect protection to ensure longevity. Whilst the SPHEROS SW does have an impressive line up of features and technology, and will serve you well in the most demanding of situations, it isn’t a cheap alternative to a STELLA or TWIN POWER! For inshore work and occasional more demanding offshore fishing, it’s a great low cost option, but for continuous extreme fishing, for massive tuna, GT, grouper or sharks, you will get better service from one of the higher cost models. That said, for travelling or holidaying anglers who want their own tropical set-up, the larger sizes are a great value for money choice.

BAITCASTING REELS Baitcasting reels are rapidly gaining popularity across Europe as anglers embrace the precision and excitement of modern predator fishing. SHIMANO baitcasting reels deliver a fishing experience unlike any other: lightweight yet powerful, intuitive yet technical, and always ready for the sudden strike. With direct lure feedback, exceptional leverage, and total control over every movement, they empower anglers to fish with confidence. Whether guiding a lure along submerged structure, pitching into tight cover, or making long, accurate casts, a SHIMANO baitcaster puts you in complete control. What really sets SHIMANO apart is the advanced casting-control technology built into every model. Intelligent digital systems like I-DC5 and I-DC4 calculate spool rotation and environmental factors hundreds of times per second, adjusting brake force to prevent backlash while maximizing distance and efficiency. For those who prefer mechanical or magnetic systems, SHIMANO’s centrifugal and magnetic brakes provide consistent, finely tunable control, ensuring every cast, whether a delicate finesse or full-power delivery, is smooth and reliable. From subtle twitch-and-pause presentations to explosive power fishing, SHIMANO baitcasting reels dominate every scenario. Combining innovation, precision, and durability, they give anglers the tools to challenge predators with skill and confidence. Every cast feels purposeful, every retrieve connected, and every moment on the water becomes sharper, more controlled and more exhilarating.

BRAKE SYSTEMS THE BRAKE IS A INDISPENSABLE PART OF A BAITCASTING REEL. At the start of the cast, the reel spool has to turn very quickly, while at the end of the cast (when the lure almost hits the water) the spool has to turn a lot slower to prevent an overrun of line. The brake regulates the turning speed of the spool, so it will brake the speed during the cast, preventing knots and making accurate trouble-free casting possible. Setting the drag is a very precise job: too much brake will decrease the casting distance drastically, while not enough brake will cause an overrun of line and resulting tangles.

DIGITAL CONTROL The Digital Control system is a waterproof, self-energizing system which is computer chip controlled. It recharges with each cast and needs no battery or power source. During the initial moments of the cast, the energy generated by the rotation of the spool is stored in the Digital Control circuit board and powers the Digital Braking System on subsequent casts. During the cast, the Digital Braking system calculates and provides the optimal braking force.

I-DC5 has 2 sets of dial adjustments. With the internal dial, you can select the type of line used. The external dial adjustment has a selection of 5 semiautomatic settings.
BENEFIT This revolutionary system makes accurate and long distance casting possible, while at the same time minimising tangles, knots and overruns. It anticipates hard casting conditions, like fishing in windy weather or casting very light baits. The DC system produces excellent casting performance for both beginner and tournament anglers.
The I-DC4 braking system is an intelligent Digital Control braking system with an easy to use, 4 setting externally adjustable brake dial. This will allow anglers to fish a wide variety of lures, in any conditions, with minimal adjustment to the reel. 4 modes can be set using the external dial.

FINESSE TUNE BRAKE FTB is a brake system developed especially for finesse baitcasting reels. The brake unit is usually located on the side of the spool, but the FTB system is outside the spool reducing weight. By turning the knob on the outside of the reel, magnets are moved deeper or shallower into the spool. Deeper means more braking power, shallower means less braking power. This adjusts itself to the rotational speed of the spool during the cast creating the right amount of braking power.
BENEFIT The FTB system’s biggest advantage is the ultra light spool. The light weight spool enables long and accurate casts to be made with very light lures. The braking system, with the magnets, is extremely sensitive and can be set very precisely for optimal braking power in every situation.

MAGNUMLITE SPOOL The lightweight MGL Spool features reduced spool inertia, for improved casting distance and accuracy with lighter lures.
BENEFIT Micromodule Gear has two advantages: increased smoothness and better sensitivity. This results in accurate performance with improved power transmission.
BENEFIT A lighter spool means that it becomes easier to cast lighter lures on thinner lines. The addition of a MGL Spool offers increased versatility across a wider range of lure sizes.
SILENT TUNE Silent Tune is an advanced SHIMANO technology. As with any casting reel, the spool rides on bearings. These bearings have pockets in the frame or side plates which house the bearings and are given some tolerance in order to make the bearings more easily changeable. While the tolerance is necessary, it allows the bearings to move slightly during casting, leading to the smallest of vibrations that take energy away from the core of the reel and reduce the distance and smoothness of the cast. Silent Tune technology adds small springs under the bearings which keep the bearings in place, ensuring proper alignment and eliminating any movement or vibration that may occur.
INFINITYDRIVE InfinityDrive is a mechanism developed by SHIMANO to deliver light and powerful winding. Commonly, the pinion gear is supported on two ends with a bearing, but, with this new construction, the pinion gear is locked in to the main shaft of the reel which gives it more stable support. Rotational resistance is also drastically reduced compared to our conventional products without reducing the gear strength.

BENEFIT The pockets / spaces which where necessary to change the bearings have been removed, whilst retaining the possibility to change the bearings. This technology makes smoother, longer casts possible due to the elimination of vibration.
S3D SPOOL SHIMANO’s S3D technology leads to significantly reduced spool vibration. By designing a balanced and uniform thin wall aluminium constructed spool, S3D creates an incredibly smooth feeling when casting and retrieving lures. BENEFIT Improved feeling of the reel due to a reduction in vibration when casting and retrieving.
SUPER FREE SPOOL Super Free was designed to eliminate friction on the spool shaft during the cast. In standard baitcasting reels, when the clutch bar is pressed down, the pinion gear is freed and can drag on the spool shaft creating friction that can limit the length of a cast. With SF, the pinion gear is supported by a ball bearing so that when the clutch is disengaged in preparation for a cast, the pinion gear and spool shaft are kept in perfect alignment.
BENEFIT Super Free ensures there is zero friction upon the spool shaft. This not only improves casting distance, it also improves the entire feeling of the reel when in use.

The SHIMANO ALDEBARAN MGL is an insanely lightweight, low profile baitcasting reel. With a weight of only 135g it fits perfectly with any lightweight BFS rod, but is equally capable of taking on heavier lures and large, powerful predators when required. The ALDEBARAN MGL is one of those reels you have to actually fish with (or at least handle) to believe how light it really is, almost rivalling its BFS cousin when it comes to weight. If you are the type of angler who generally fishes with lighter lures, but also want a reel to cope with medium lures, especially in open water, this might just be what you are looking for. One use that really suits this lightweight beauty is vertical jigging. Lighter than even the lightest spinning reels, and more direct and compact, you can jig with the ALDEBARAN MGL for hours without fatigue.

That said, the MGL Spool III and SVS infinity braking technology really come into their own with medium and lightweight lures, where the low force required to spin the spool can be fully appreciated.

The CURADO BFS (Bait Finesse System) is designed for lightweight finesse fishing and utilises FTB (Finesse Tune Brake) technology and an ultra lightweight shallow spool designed to cast lightweight lures more effectively than traditional low-profile models. If you have tried to fish with very small lures on a traditional baitcasting reel you’ll understand the limitations. Often the reel is just not sensitive enough to cast lures of 5g and under effectively, that’s where the CURADO BFS comes into play. If lightweight fishing is your passion and you prefer the directness of using a baitcasting reel, the CURADO BFS will suit you perfectly. Ideal for targeting trout, perch, or even fooling wary larger fish that are ignoring larger lures, the lightweight approach has a lot going for it and with the CURADO BFS you have the perfect reel to maximise your success.

When it comes to uncompromising design and manufacturing quality, the CALCUTTA CONQUEST is right at the top of the tree. There is nothing better in the SHIMANO round profile line-up and if you are looking for the best large lure reel available, this is it. The full metal design is remarkably lightweight and deceptively compact, feeling more like a traditional baitcasting reel in the hand, but that’s where the similarity ends. You will be astounded by how much torque the CALCUTTA CONQUEST produces when worked hard. The result is smooth, powerful winding of the largest lures, especially highly resistant versions like oversized crankbaits and spinner baits.

The CARDIFF is the very essence of what a mid-priced round profile reel should be. Strong, responsive and easy to use, it is built with a lightweight aluminium HAGANE Body and a machined aluminium spool for strength. Perfect for large lures in fresh and saltwater, this small sized multiplier offers precision, strength and value in one complete package. If you are looking for a reel to handle larger lures than your normal baitcaster can cope with, or want a small multiplier type reel for saltwater use, the CARDIFF could be your perfect fit. Whilst it doesn’t have some of the technology found on the top end SHIMANO models, you can totally depend on this attractive burnished silver and gold workhorse. It will cast medium and large lures with the best of them, and just as importantly crank them back with the muscle and smoothness required for maximum effect. Or if you prefer, combine it with your lightweight saltwater jigging rods and have some fun with hard fighting ocean dwelling monsters.

The TYRNOS and the TYRNOS II (2 speed) are some of SHIMANO’s fastest lever drag multipliers, with extra large gears and an extended handle length for increased torque generation. For additional versatility, larger sizes are also available in a 2-Speed (II) option, with prestigious cranking power. The larger 2-Speed TYRNOS (II) models are the perfect reels if you fish deep oceans for extra large fish. In their fastest setting they can rip leads up from the bottom at up to 115cm per handle turn, but with a simple press of a button seamlessly turn into awesome cranking machines, capable of winching the meanest conger or largest shark. However, if you are looking for something lighter to use for jigging, lighter bottom fishing, or specimen freshwater trolling, check out the smaller single speed versions, which are just as fast, hold huge amounts of line (mono or braid), and will give you a lifetime of pleasure and trouble free use.

The TLD and TLD II offer a combination of value and history to match any competitor. Within the range are models suitable for saltwater trolling, bottom fishing or jigging, with the smaller size single speed versions being hugely popular with freshwater anglers fishing for the largest of predators. SHIMANO TLD reels immediately stand out as lightweight, versatile models with an incredibly affordable price tag. Whilst they don’t have the sophistication of their more expensive brothers, their effective simplicity, in either single or 2-Speed lever drag options, is hugely appealing to anglers of all abilities. If you are looking to own your first multiplier, or are an experienced angler looking to add to you arsenal, TLD still remains one of the most compelling choices based on value and quality, as thousands of anglers worldwide will testify.

FALL LEVER Control the fall speed with ease and comfort with the latest lever design. What used to be difficult to control (fall speed) has become quick and easy to accurately adjust with the latest lever design. Falling fast in the middle columns or slowing down the fall speed near the bottom, more strategies can be devised for your fishing needs. The lever is also designed to be highly operable as the shape helps control of the fall speed to be smooth and tireless.

The OCEA JIGGER series is the ultimate reel for serious saltwater jigging anglers worldwide. Built in Japan to the highest standards, and containing the latest design and engineering technology, the OCEA JIGGER F Custom also features a customisable ‘Fall Lever’ to control the speed of your jig as it falls towards the ocean floor. The OCEA JIGGER F Custom is based on normal OCEA JIGGER, but with one important addition - the inclusion of an adjustable ‘Fall Lever’, to control the decent speed of your jig. By slowing down the speed, you can change the jigs action, making it more animated, erratic and attractive to fish that are off the bottom. Using the lever, instead of thumbing the spool, enables you to adjust and repeat the decent speed accurately, time after time, to maximise your mid-water opportunities, whilst also enabling you to actually slow pitch whilst the lure is descending.

THERMO ADJUST DRAG A control function designed to suppress abnormal heat generation of the drag to maintain stable drag performance. If the drag slips while the motor of the electric reel is on, the gear will idle and cause an abnormal heat generation in the drag area.

GEARING TECHNOLOGY HAGANE GEAR The HAGANE Drive Gear is produced by SHIMANO’s cold forging technology, without the need for additional machining. This results in gearing parts which retain the characteristics of the pure material, keeping it as strong as possible.
Ci4+ A Ci4+ Body is made out of Ci4+ composite material with very special characteristics. It is stronger than the original Ci4 and XT-7 graphite, and also lighter in weight. Because Ci4+ does not contain any metal, it is not affected by corrosion, making it suitable for salt water use. Ci4+ parts are lighter and stronger than any other composite material SHIMANO uses in their products.
CORESOLID BODY MICROMODULE GEAR MICROMODULE GEAR is a machined gear component, made with great precision. The super-refined teeth produce seamless engagement with other gears.
MICROMODULE II GEAR MICROMODULE II GEAR are super-refined gear teeth to ensure seamless gear engagement. This state-of-the-art gear tooth surface design is an evolution of the MICRO MODULE GEARING, made possible by SHIMANO’s exclusive manufacturing capabilities.
X-SHIP X-SHIP stands for Extra Smooth & High Power. It is a precision gearing system which enables smooth yet strong reeling. By supporting the pinion gear at both ends and integrating a bigger drive gear with improved positioning, increased gearing efficiency and power is produced. It results in ultra-light handle rotation combined with excellent power efficiency.
SILENTDRIVE The SilentDrive technology encompasses the total redesign of the internal components to reduce microscopic handle play and eliminating noise and any unnatural feeling from the worm shaft drive. The combination of these redesigned components and extremely fine engineering tolerances produces an extremely smooth and silent reeling sensation.
INFINITYDRIVE (SPINNING) InfinityDrive has been introduced to deliver light and powerful winding. In spinning reels this development reduces the friction of spool oscillation with a special design and combination of parts. As a result, handle rotation resistance is reduced considerably, when compared to a conventional system, resulting in easier winding, even under extreme pressure.
INFINITYXROSS INFINITYXROSS is an advanced drive gear technology which uses wider gear teeth. The increased surface area distributes pressure more evenly across the full face of the teeth as they meet during rotation. Compared to similar sized gears, INFINITYXROSS increases durability by 100% without affecting smoothness.
2-SPEED GEARING This shifting mechanism is designed so that gearing changes are quick and easy, even when fighting a fish. The low gear ratio used for high-power retrieves is selected by pushing the button on the base of the handle. Return to the high-speed ratio by sliding the release button along the handle shank.
BODY TECHNOLOGY HAGANE BODY HAGANE BODY is made out of precision machined aluminium or magnesium. These body designs create stiffness and impact resistance, while at the same time eliminating flexing of the body. The HAGANE BODY is highly rigid and protects gear rotation performance from heavy loads and shocks.
The CoreSolid Body, which is featured on some bait casting reels, integrates the B-Side Plate, level wind guard and frame into one solid once piece construction.
X-SHIELD By placing sealing gaskets in critical locations throughout the reel body, SHIMANO is able to create a water resistant structure that can hold up against the toughest conditions, giving excellent protection from water and foreign object ingress.
G FREE BODY G Free Body technology has been developed to shift the reel’s centre of gravity closer to the rod. This has been achieved by moving the oscillation mechanism more towards the top of the reel. By moving the centre of gravity closer to the angler’s hand position, the G Free Body helps to reduce fatigue and enhance casting comfort.
COREPROTECT Coreprotect is a SHIMANO technology which is developed to keep water out of the reel, without creating a heavier rotation feeling, in two areas: 1. The Roller Clutch Bearing. This is the most critical area when comes to balancing water resistance without affecting the light and smooth rotation. A surface protection coating causes water to bead preventing water from flowing into the small crevices where it can reach the mechanism of the roller clutch bearing. 2. The Line Roller: A line roller with Coreprotect has a one-piece design that provides water resistance and lowmaintenance. The sealed design does not require oil.
X-PROTECT X-Protect is a water-resistant technology that comes in several forms and is dependent on the reel category and intended usage of each reel. The roller clutch (body area) in large spinning reels works with a “contact style” water resistance. Contact style makes use of a combination of labyrinth construction, rubber gaskets and grease to strongly prevent water from coming into a certain area of the reel. This design makes it possible to achieve up to IPX8 level water resistance for the roller clutch of some larger spinning reels. The roller clutch in smaller reels works with a “noncontact style” water resistance. Non-contact style makes use of a labyrinth structure along with a water repellent material that ensures both light rotation and water resistance performance. Compared to larger reels, smaller reels require sensitivity and a sufficient level of water resistance. The non-contact style protects the reel but does not sacrifice rotation lightness.
PARALLEL BODY SHIMANO’s Parallel Body technology ensures the rod and reel alignment is perfectly parallel. The axel and spool are parallel to the rod, minimising the amount of line slapping onto the blank between the spool and the first guide during the cast.
‘S’ COMPACT BODY A ‘S’ Compact Body is found on baitcasting and small multiplier reels. It has an asymmetrical side plate construction where the side plate on the handle side of the reel is larger to accommodate the gears, whilst the opposite side (palming) is smaller than a conventional side plate for increased comfort and functionality.
BAIL TECHNOLOGY X RIGID BAIL The adoption of thicker titanium wire dramatically increases the rigidity and impact resistance of the bail arm. The nature of the metal (titanium) makes the bail arm lighter and provides excellent corrosion resistance.
ONE PIECE BAIL One Piece Bail is a bail arm made from one piece of material, which allows the line to slide very smoothly over it to the line roller. In addition, this one piece construction results in a stronger bail arm, which is much less likely to bend, or even break, under enormous pressure.
ANTI-TWIST FIN ANTI-TWIST FIN is an elastic and removable* fin placed on the rotor next to the line roller. It is designed to create the perfect tension between the line and the spool and improve line management efficiency, especially when using supple, thin diameter braid and mono. * Removing the fin is only necessary with lines over 0.47mm or with very large knots.
DRAG TECHNOLOGY HI-SPEED DRAG Hi-speed drag is SHIMANO’s fastest drag system and can change the drag setting from free-spool mode to fighting mode with only a very small turn to the knob located on the front of the spool.
EXCITING DRAG SOUND Exciting Drag Sound is a technology which enables the angler to have a drag sound on a baitcasting or multiplier type reel.
HEAT SINK DRAG Heat Sink technology enables dissipation of excessive heat build-up when the spool is rotating quickly and keeps the heat away from the spool surface and drag washer where it can cause a reduction in drag performance.
X-TOUGH DRAG X-Tough Drag is SHIMANO’s toughest drag configuration and incorporates large diameter drag washers at the base of the spool, which provide greater drag stability. The result is smooth and consistent drag performance throughout the fight.
CROSS CARBON DRAG Cross Carbon Drag is made out of a carbon drag washer matrix, which delivers great heat resistance and super smooth drag performance.
X DRAG X Drag is a drag star which is smaller than usual. This is done in order to position the reel handle closer to the body of the reel which increases cranking leverage, rigidity and torque.

REELS > TECHNICAL GLOSSARY DURACROSS DRAG DURACROSS DRAG is an advanced drag washer construction that combines the best characteristics and feel of felt washers, including initial hooking power, with the increased durability of cross-carbon washers.
RAPID FIRE DRAG Rapid Fire Drag is a drag system which is very precise and fast at the same time. It enables adjustment of the drag from heavy to light settings (and vice-versa) in only half a turn of the drag knob.
RIGID SUPPORT DRAG When hooking a large fish, the smoothness of the initial movement of the drag is the most important to avoid line break. By supporting the spool with the main shaft and two bearing links in the spool, it is possible to suppress the spool’s flutter and to provide stable and smooth drag performance.
ROTOR TECHNOLOGY MAGNUMLITE ROTOR The Magnumlite Rotor is an ultra-light improved rotor made out of Ci4+ material. The profile of the rotor is made asymmetrical and the bail arm mechanism, which is usually situated on the same side as the line roller, has been moved to the opposite side. Both of these changes improve the balance. The rotor rigidity at the line roller side has been improved and reduces the deflection under maximum pressure by up to 30%.
X RIGID ROTOR SHIMANO’s X Rigid Rotor is an extra strong and durable rotor. The shape and thickness of the aluminium rotor creates high rigidity that results in more fish fighting power. Increased mass of the aluminium rotor generates more inertia resulting in easier fishing of heavy jigs and high resistance lures.
FIGHTIN’ DRAG II The Fightin’ Drag mechanism is available for some spinning reels with a rear-drag system. Just above the rear drag knob there is an adjustment lever. This lever allows the angler to adjust the drag tension during the fight in a very controlled way by moving it to the right or the left to increase or decrease the drag pressure.
INSTANT-DRAG SHIMANO Instant-Drag allows a quick adjustment of the front drag knob to take the reel from a current drag setting to free spool in just half a turn (and vice-versa).
THERMO ADJUST DRAG A control function designed to suppress abnormal heat generation of the drag to maintain stable drag performance. If the drag slips while the motor of the electric reel is on, the gear will idle and cause an abnormal heat generation in the drag area. In order to suppress this heat generation, when the drag is slipping, the motor speed is automatically reduced.
FRONT DRAG A front drag spinning reel has the drag knob located on top of the reel spool. This category is the most popular type of spinning reel.
REAR DRAG A rear drag spinning reel has the drag knob located at the back of the reel.
WATERPROOF DRAG The Water Proof Drag contains rubber gaskets which are placed to protect the drag system. It seals the drag against intrusion of the elements such as water and dust.
DARTANIUM DRAG This drag material provides a wider range of drag settings, along with very smooth drag performance.
OSCILLATION TECHNOLOGY AERO WRAP Aero Wrap is a worm gear oscillation system with a specially designed pitch to create optimal oscillation speeds for the AR-C spool design. The one speed oscillation system provides a line-lay with one speed (the same speed upwards and downwards). The twospeed oscillation system (the spool moves upward quickly and downwards slowly) lays the line onto the spool in a precise crisscross pattern that reduces lineto-line friction when casting.
SLOW OSCILLATION With up to 35-40 wraps per cycle, this slow oscillation exceeds almost all other manufacturers’ reels.
SUPER SLOW 5 A minimum of 45-55 wraps per cycle. This makes almost perfect parallel spooling possible and gives a huge improvement in casting distance and precision.
SUPER SLOW 10 A minimum of 95-110 wraps per cycle. This produces parallel line spooling and the best casting distance, control and precision possible.
INFINITYLOOP INFINITYLOOP is an ultra slow line oscillation designed for smaller spinning reels. The spool moves up and down very slowly as the rotor wraps line onto it, allowing the line to spool in an almost parallel configuration. This creates a smooth profile thatimproves line management when casting and also when playing fish.
HANDLES SCREW IN HANDLE
LEVER DRAG A lever drag multiplier has a drag which can be set using a lever at the side of the reel. Lever drags are designed for big, hard fighting fish.
STAR DRAG A star drag multiplier has a drag which can be set using the star at the side of the reel. This is able to create a lot of drag tension.
A screw-in handle can be screwed directly into the gearing of the spinning reel. This reduces play and unwanted movement of the handle and gives a better rotational feeling.
ERGONOMIC POWER GRIP The handle grip, made of a comfortable, non-slip rubber, is formed to provide maximum comfort and power.
SPOOL TECHNOLOGY MAGNUMLITE SPOOL The lightweight MGL Spool features reduced spool inertia, for improved casting distance and accuracy with lighter lures.
LONG STROKE SPOOL The Long Stroke Spool design has a longer stroke, compared to conventional spool designs. This long stroke specification results in longer casting distances.
SILENT TUNE Silent Tune is an advanced SHIMANO technology. As with any casting reel, the spool rides on bearings. These bearings have pockets in the frame or side plates which house the bearings and are given some tolerance in order to make the bearings more easily changeable. While the tolerance is necessary, it allows the bearings to move slightly during casting, leading to the smallest of vibrations that take energy away from the core of the reel and reduce the distance and smoothness of the cast. Silent Tune technology adds small springs under the bearings which keep the bearings in place, ensuring proper alignment and eliminating any movement or vibration that may occur.
SUPER FREE SPOOL Super Free was designed to eliminate friction on the spool shaft during the cast. In standard baitcasting reels, when the clutch bar is pressed down, the pinion gear is freed and can drag on the spool shaft creating friction that can limit the length of a cast. With SF, the pinion gear is supported by a ball bearing so that when the clutch is disengaged in preparation for a cast, the pinion gear and spool shaft are kept in perfect alignment.
S3D SPOOL SHIMANO’s S3D technology leads to significantly reduced spool vibration. By designing a balanced and uniform thin wall aluminium constructed spool, S3D creates an incredibly smooth feeling when casting and retrieving lures.
BALLBEARING TECHNOLOGY A-RB BEARING SHIMANO Anti-Rust Bearings (A-RB) have undergone a special heat treatment process resulting in high metal strength and long lasting corrosion resistance.
S A-RB BEARING These bearings have undergone a special heat treatment resulting in high metal strength. Shielded A-RB bearings use either a rubber shield or stainless steel shield (depending on bearing size) for the ultimate in corrosion resistance and contaminant protection against sand, salt or dust.
X RIGID HANDLE The X Rigid Handle is a cold forged handle shank. The shank and shaft support parts are integrally molded to eliminate deflection. Power loss is eliminated and direct and powerful winding is realised. 97

BLANK TECHNOLOGY
SPIRAL X CORE SHIMANO’s unique and patented SPIRAL X CORE construction consists of three layers: a first layer of carbon tape that spirals tightly around the blank in a diagonal direction, a middle sheet of carbon made out of vertical fibres and an outer layer comprising carbon tape that tightly spirals the blank in the opposite direction to the first layer. By using carbon tape, instead of a conventional horizontal fibre sheet, SPIRAL X enhances torsional rigidity without adding extra weight. SPIRAL X CORE makes use of the same construction as SPIRAL X, with the addition of a Nano resin distribution technology in the carbon tape. Nano resin technology distributes the resin more evenly through the carbon fibres resulting in a stronger, lighter rod. SPIRAL X CORE has 1.4 times better anti-twist capabilities and 2.5 times more compression rigidity compared to SPIRAL X. BENEFIT Spiral X CORE construction overcomes blank twist and increases rod strength, whilst keeping the weight low, for enhanced performance. It also minimizes the ‘spine’ which naturally occurs when using conventional sheet carbon material resulting in purer action. The result is improved casting accuracy, more powerful transmission, increased control of the lure, and improved fish-playing performance.
SPIRAL X SHIMANO’s unique and patented SPIRAL X construction consists of three layers: a first layer of carbon tape that spirals tightly around the blank in a diagonal direction, a middle sheet of carbon made out of vertical fibres and an outer layer comprising carbon tape that tightly spirals the blank in the opposite direction to the first layer. By using carbon tape, instead of a conventional horizontal fibre sheet, SPIRAL X enhances torsional rigidity without adding extra weight. This construction results in less overlapping of material, which would normally result in a spine and weak spots.
BENEFIT Spiral X construction overcomes blank twist and increases rod strength, whilst keeping the weight low, for enhanced performance. The result is improved casting accuracy, more power transmission, increased control of the lure, and improved fish-playing performance.
HIPOWER X SHIMANO‘s HI-POWER X construction, uses different carbon layers to create the blank. The outermost layer of carbon tape is diagonally wrapped in opposite directions, which forms an array of “X” shapes. The width of the tape, its winding angle and the part of the rod being wrapped are finelytuned according to the rods intended use. The flexibility allows SHIMANO to adjust these wraps during construction for precise actions, enhanced overall strength and increased twist resistance. In short, HI-POWER X construction delivers sharp and crisp rod control. BENEFIT SHIMANO‘s HI-POWER X construction eliminates twist in the blank, which helps deliver more accuracy when casting and have more control when playing fish.

RODS > ROD TECHNOLOGY
NANOPITCH With NANOPITCH manufacturing technology SHIMANO wraps a compression tape, with high precision, over the carbon blank before the curing (heating) process. The NANOPITCH method enables the carbon on the mandrel to be compressed extremely firmly, with uniform pressure, creating circularity pressure which contributes greatly to overall rod strength. NANOPITCH is always applied in combination with the SPIRAL X CORE blank construction to maximize rod performance.
HIGH PRESSURE CARBON SHIMANO HIGH PRESSURE CARBON (HPC) is a process which creates stronger, more responsive blanks. Pressure is applied with a compression tape to the blank surface before curing (heating), which evenly distributes the resin through the carbon fibre matrix.
BENEFIT NANOPITCH results in higher roundness, which greatly contributes to higher strength. The fine pitch of the tape creates a high-quality exterior design.
BENEFIT SHIMANO’s HPC results in much stronger rods with more consistent performance and improved responsiveness.
NANOSHEET NANOSHEET is a multiple carbon sheet construction, which incorporates Nano resin distribution technology. The resin, which holds the different carbon fibres together, is distributed more evenly across the carbon fibres, resulting in a stronger and more light weight rod, with less potential defects and weak spots.
NANOSHEET + NANOSHEET+ is an advanced multi-carbon sheet construction featuring next-generation nano resin distribution technology. The optimized resin and carbon fibre alignment creates a stronger, lighter, and more responsive blank with improved structural integrity and reduced weak points. This enhances sensitivity, blank recovery, and casting precision.
BENEFIT SHIMANO’s NANOSHEET technology results is increased overall rod strength and weight reduction. It also increases strength and improves feel.
BENEFIT SHIMANO’s NANOSHEET+ technology increases overall rod strength while reducing weight. The advanced nano resin system further enhances responsiveness, sensitivity, casting accuracy, and overall feel.
XSR XSR is an advanced multi-directional carbon sheet with Super Resin treatment that reinforces the blank both internally and externally, producing a highly efficient transmission of force. BENEFIT XSR improves overall blank performance by reducing weight, increasing sensitivity and enhancing power transfer for faster hook-ups and improved fish-playing control.

BIOFIBRE SHIMANO‘s unique BIOFIBRE construction improves overall rod strength and resistance to shock whilst producing increased lifting power in the tip.
GEOFIBRE GEOFIBRE is a naturally derived component that provides rigidity and high tensile strength when added to rods in the lower to mid-price rod band.
BENEFIT SHIMANO’s BIOFIBRE technology gives excellent control over hard fighting fish and enables more power to be exerted.
BENEFIT The GEOFIBRE material produces stronger rods in the lower to mid-price segment that are more resistant to breakages.
DIAFLASH With SHIMANO‘s DIAFLASH construction, the outermost layer of the butt section is diagonally wrapped in opposite directions with carbon tape, which forms an array of “X” shapes. The width of the tape, its winding angle and the part of the rod being wrapped are fine-tuned according to the rods intended use. DIAFLASH is a reinforced structure that prevents twisting of the butt section in situations where high-intensity pressure is applied.
MUSCLE CARBON MUSCLE CARBON is a high-performance material that reduces the gaps between fibres, by bundling carbon filaments together at a higher density than traditional carbon sheet. This reduces the amount of resin need to fill the gaps in the carbon matrix during the curing process.
BENEFIT SHIMANO’s DIAFLASH construction improves the pulling power of the rod, whilst minimizing the loss of energy through excess flexing of the butt section.
BENEFIT The MUSCLE CARBON material enables lightweight blanks without losing blank strength.
TWIST CONTROL An anti-twist blank construction process which is applied to Big Game saltwater rods.
MUSCLE LOOP MUSCLE LOOP is formed using a spiral carbon tape, wrapped on the outside of the blank, which reduces the natural ‘spine’ of the blank and also improves strength. This helps prevent the blank from distorting under extreme pressure.
BENEFIT When fighting huge fish with Big Game saltwater rods, TWIST CONTROL enables more power to be directly applied to the fish.
BENEFIT The MUSCLE LOOP construction reduces the spine, improves overall rod strength compared to conventionally made blanks, and increases control over hard fighting fish.

GRIP TECHNOLOGY
Thin-walled section for weight reduction Thickened section to maintain strength
FULL CARBON MONOCOQUE The FULL CARBON MONOCOQUE grip is an evolution of the Carbon Monocoque grip and features up to 28% increased sensitivity. Normally the grip section, behind the reel seat is made of EVA or cork, however with the Full Carbon Monocoque grip this section is also moulded from a hollow carbon structure. This greatly improves the lightness and ability to detect vibrations transmitted to the hand. In addition, the carbon grip section is cushioned to prevent slipping with the hand.
BENEFIT The FULL CARBON MONOCOQUE grip with ergonomic design is extremely lightweight and sensitive. When lure fishing, it is very important to have excellent transfer of vibration from the rod to the hand. This enables increased feeling of different types of bottom structures and magnifies tentative bites. It also offers stability when fighting with a fish and better control of the lure.
CARBON MONOCOQUE The CARBON MONOCOQUE grip is a one-piece hollow carbon construction, which is integrated seamlessly into the rod blank. The remarkably lightweight handle is stiffer than traditional rod construction, reduces the overall weight of the rod and also increases vibration transmition.
BENEFIT The CARBON MONOCOQUE grip reduces overall weight of the rod and increases vibration transition to the hand. When used in combination with braided mainlines, the increased sensitively of the handle enables bottom structures to be identified and tentative takes to be felt with more assurance.
CARBON SHELL GRIP The CARBON SHELL GRIP is a next-generation grip structure made entirely from hollow carbon fibre, designed to maximise sensitivity and vibration transmission. Its lightweight, rigid construction connects seamlessly to the reel seat, allowing anglers to feel even the slightest underwater movement directly through the rod and into their hand.
BENEFIT The key benefit of Carbon Shell Grip is its enhanced sensitivity. The hollow carbon design improves vibration transfer, helping anglers detect subtle bites and underwater changes more clearly, while also reducing overall rod weight for greater comfort and control.

REEL SEAT TECNOLOGY
CI4+ The Ci4+ reel seat is a moulded one-piece composite construction that is very lightweight, strong and resistant to distortion. The composite is one of the strongest materials SHIMANO use and is over 1.5 times stronger that traditional composite materials. Ci4+ is also water resistant and not affected by corrosion, making it suitable for salt water use.
X SEAT X SEAT is an innovative reel seat designed to improve grip, comfort, and control with a more natural hand position and secure fit, available in a range of models tailored for various fishing styles.
BENEFIT The application of Ci4+ material in the reel seat results in a lightweight, yet strong and very sensitive reel seat. Bites, bottom structure and other underwater signals are transmitted with greater strength and accuracy. In larger rods, used for distance casting, the use of Ci4+ increases the fixation strength between rod and reel.
BENEFIT X SEAT reduces wrist and hand fatigue by minimising strain during long fights and heavy loads, delivering smoother and more stable reel control.
GUIDE TECHNOLOGY XGUIDE X-GUIDE is an advanced guide engineered to efficiently channel line down the rod smoothly with minimal friction. The one piece construction is crafted from ultra lightweight titanium and designed with precision using exclusive Shimano technology.
BENEFIT The optimized design of X-GUIDE seamlessly reduces the spiral taper of line during the cast. The result is minimal friction during the cast, whilst the ultra lightweight design maximises the rods action enabling it to perform with maximum potential.
TIP SECTION TECHNOLOGY
TAFTEC INFINITY TAFTEC INFINITY realizes three times the winding strength and five times the winding amount of our conventional solid tips. It is a high intensity solid tip that surpasses the strength and sensitvity of TAFTEC . TAFTEC TAFTEC is a unique solid tip that realizes flexibility and delicate bending without reducing the diameter of the tip or its strength. The TAFTEC tip is used throughout the Shimano rod range where sensitivity is an important requirement of the rods. BENEFIT TAFTEC ALPHA tips enable rod tips to be made thinner and more sensitive which is especially useful when finesse fishing. Bites are maximised and fish feel less tension when inhaling the lure, resulting in more hook-ups.
EXCITE TOP EXCITE TOP is a special tip that enhances the shake performance of lures and contributes to sensitivity. The tip section is tapered and slightly heavier at the top. This construction expands the swing width of the tip, enabling shaking with an automatic feeling. The movement seen by the eyes, and the sensitivity transmitted to the hands, is greatly improved. BENEFIT The EXCITE TOP has a specially tapered tip section which allows anglers to easily present lures with a shaking action. In some situations, especially when fishing for reluctant fish, this approach can trigger more bites.

ROD ACTIONS SHIMANO TAKES GREAT CARE WHEN DEVELOPING RODS AND DESIGNING THE CORRECT ACTIONS TO SUIT THE INTENDED USE. As a general guide, Extra-Fast and Fast actions offer more sensitivity and hooking speed, plus the ability to cast further with heavy loading. Moderate-Fast and Moderate actions offer more flexibility and confidence when playing fish as the action absorbs increased pressure smoothly. Moderate actions are also good for casting very light loading as the rod ‘works’ through its length to create tip speed.

For sensitivity and responsive feel, there is very little to match the stunning EXPRIDE. Originally developed as a Bass rod, you’ll easily see why we are so excited about the EXPRIDE range. If you are looking for a lure rod that matches your high expectations, look no further, the EXPRIDE is faultless. Light, medium or even large lures, with either Spinning or Baitcasting reels, the EXPRIDE range covers everything, and with a sensitivity that few rods can match. Each model even comes in two configurations, a 1+1 (one piece with detachable handle) and 2-piece (equal length sections) option. You really are spoilt for choice.

YASEI LTD Perch Crankbait The YASEI LTD Perch Crankbait is a specialist rod designed for serious perch anglers who want the very best action to maximise their skill. If that sounds like the kind of rod you need, you certainly won’t be disappointed with this masterpiece. Perfectly balanced and very lightweight, the progressive action helps absorb some of the vibration as you retrieve your lure, ensuring it works enticingly, but still gives enough feedback to enable you to make precise retrieve adjustments. Another benefit is how the rod loads up pressure in a smooth manner as a fish strikes. This encourages perch to hold on to your lure slightly longer, resulting in more and better hook-ups. The 2.15m length will cast crankbaits in the 4-16g range a surprisingly long way and with pin-point precision, especially when paired up with a small SHIMANO baitcasting reel.

YASEI LTD Perch Finesse Fishing for perch with ‘finesse’ set-ups, using soft plastic lures, is becoming increasingly popular. If you are a perch specialist, who likes to target them using lightweight lures fished with a lot of precision, the YASEI LTD Perch Finesse is the type of rod you will really appreciate. Designed especially for using with small lures, they cast really well, enabling you to cover more water or cast with pinpoint accuracy to the underwater structures and features that perch love to shoal up around. And the super sensitive TAFTEC tips give underwater feedback and bite registration that is noticeably superior to hollow tip rods. There are two options of this special rod to choose from and between them they will cover all your requirements when you combine them with a 1000 or 2000 sized SHIMANO reel. The shorter 2.25m version has a casting weight of 5-18g making it perfect for smaller, lighter lures and when fishing tight to features. The longer 2.60m version has a casting weight of 3-21g.

YASEI LTD Zander There is a choice of two rods in the YASEI LTD Zander range and which you choose will depend on the types of water you fish and your preferred jig weights. For searching the depths of larger rivers and deep lakes, with heavy jig heads, the 2.70m Heavy version is an excellent choice. With its long-range fast action casting performance and 20-70g optimum casting weight, you can really cover a lot of water, out casting other anglers. In powerful rivers the extra lure weight will get down to the bottom quickly, making fishing more efficient and effective. The extra length and power also improve fish-playing control of large zander close to the shore. There is also a medium version with a casting weight of 10-35g. This is perfect for slower rivers, large canals and still waters where less weight is required for effective lure control. Both models can also be used from a boat, especially when you want to cover a lot of water and fish with a hybrid vertical/horizontal jigging technique.

YASEI Pike Spinning As soon as you handle one of the YASEI Pike Spinning models you will immediately feel the casting potential from the fast action blanks. With extra power in the lower section of both models, these really are highly tuned rods that will enable you to cover a lot of water, whether you are fishing from the bank or a boat. The lightest and most versatile rod in the range is the 2.20m H (Heavy) which has a casting weight of 20-60g. This makes it a great rod for medium sized lures when paired with a 3000 sized reel. The slightly shorter length has the advantage of improved casting accuracy, especially when casting tight to reed beds and other fish-holding features. The more powerful 2.50m EX (Extra Heavy) has a larger optimum casting weight of 40-120g. This will cover almost all pike lure sizes designed for the largest fish and when paired with a 4000, or compact 5000 sized spinning reel, produces a formidable casting combination that won’t be overwhelmed by outsized crank and swimbaits.

YASEI Pike Casting The YASEI Pike Casting rods are real heavy hitters. They are built to cast and retrieve the biggest lures out there. By the very nature of the rods design and intended use, you know you have a rod in your hand that can tame the largest beasts. These rods are bigger, bolder and better and when you hook that croc pike, you know why. They’re not for the faint hearted. The lightest rod in the range is the 2.50m XH (Extra Heavy) which has a casting weight of 40-100g. The middle rod is the 2.30m XXH (Extra Extra Heavy) which can handle lures in the 56-170g range, and the strongest rod is the 2.60m Extreme which is capable of working with lures in the massive 120-270g range. All the rods cast remarkably well, but you must use them with the correct sized lures to get the best from them. For boat anglers, all three models make superb trolling rods on large waters, with the Extreme being an outstanding option for deep lakes, where your chances of catching the largest pike are at their greatest.

YASEI Pike Jerkbait To get the best action out of your jerkbaits you need a rod with plenty of backbone and a fast tip, and that’s exactly what the YASEI Jerkbait Casting possesses. At just 1.98m in length it’s short enough to be used with a downward, or a sideways jerking technique, depending on your preference and is easy to manage when boat fishing. Pair it with a baitcasting reel in the 150 to 300 size, for optimum balance, and you have a stunning lightweight combination. This enables you to produce super-fast jerks, whilst at the same time reducing fatigue when fishing for extended periods. With an optimum casting weight of 45-100g, it is more suited to medium and large lures, but because of the forgiving nature of the tip action you can get away using lighter jerkbaits if you want. And don’t forget, whilst this model has been designed specifically for using jerkbaits, that doesn’t mean you can’t experiment by using swimbaits and crankbaits with it.

YASEI Perch Carolina & Texas Rig Perch fishing is gaining popularity and if you are an angler who specialises in this widespread and often underestimated species, you will probably be aware of specialized black bass rigs and how to fish them. Offering more options and versatility than the standard jig head/shad combination, these softbait set-ups can be extremely effective and almost addictive to use. But it does help if you have the correct rod. The YASEI Perch Carolina & Texas Rig rod comes in two 2.30m length options, for excellent casting performance. The Casting rod will cover 7-20g set-ups. To balance the rod perfectly, combine it with a SHIMANO BFS (Bait Finesse System) baitcasting reel, or 70 size MGL alternatives. The Spinning rod will cover lighter 4-14g set-ups. To balance the rod perfectly, combine it with a SHIMANO 2000 or 2500 sized spinning reel. In use, the fast action maximises lightweight casting distances, whilst the sensitive solid tip enhances the gentlest of bites, giving you every chance of hitting the most delicate takes, especially in winter when the fish are moving slower.

YASEI Bladed Jig Cast There’s nothing wrong with using an all-round rod for bladed jigs and chatterbaits, but if you’re serious about your fishing and want to up your performance, the YASEI AX Bladed Jig rod is a real game-changer. When paired with a baitcasting reel loaded with low-stretch braid, the smooth moderate action effortlessly absorbs the vibrations and erratic kicks from your lure as you retrieve, whilst retaining the precision and razor-sharp control needed to detect even the slightest bites. The difference is tangible, and it’ll show in your results. The moderate through action of this rod provides another advantage, it loads up pressure smoothly when a fish strikes. This makes the fish more likely to hold on for that crucial split second longer, translating into more hook-ups and fewer missed opportunities.

YASEI Pelagic Pike & Zander If you are the type of angler who fishes deep waters from a boat and uses a fish-finder to hunt out your prey, the Pelagic method is one you should have in your armory. Although a relatively new technique, the Pelagic style of freshwater predator fishing has proven to be one of the most effective ways of capturing large fish and is certainly an exciting method to use. The YASEI Pelagic Pike & Zander is the perfect rod to fish the technique correctly and has been designed to present large soft baits, vertically, at precise depths, with pin-point accuracy.

YASEI Zander River Jig There’s a choice of three rods in the range and which you choose will depend on the types of water you fish and your preferred jig weights. For searching the depths of larger rivers, with heavy jig heads, the 2.70m Heavy version takes some beating. With its excellent fast action casting performance and 24-56g optimum casting weight, you can really cover a lot of water, reach further out into the river and get down to the bottom quickly if there is a powerful current. The extra length and power also improves fish-playing control of large fish in a swift current. There is also a Medium version of the 2.70m length with a casting weight of 12-28g. This is great for slower rivers, large canals and still waters. For shorter range work the 2.40m length Medium option (12-28g) really comes into its own.

YASEI Aspius If you fish for aspius you’ll already know that you need long casting balanced tackle which enables you to fish at range. This is especially true on large rivers, where the fish are often found in the swifter current away from the bank. These are the exact parameters that the super lightweight, long casting YASEI Aspius rod has been designed for. At 2.70m in length, the fast action of this special rod will cast a wide range of lures between 10-35g exceptional distances, enabling you to cover a lot of water. And when you get an aggressive strike, especially when using top water lures, the full fighting curve of the rod will absorb the sudden pressure to prevent breakages or hook pulls. To get the maximum distance from this long range masterpiece, and make fish-playing more controlled, it is recommended you use a 4000 sized spinning reel, or one of the compact body 5000 sizes to create optimum balance.

YASEI BB Crankbait You can fish crankbaits with many different types of spinning rod, but you will get better results using a specialist model like the YASEI BB Crankbait. The smooth action absorbs the vibration and kicks your lure makes when retrieved, especially when using braid line, which maximises action and attraction, even when using the most aggressive types of lure. Another benefit of the smooth through action is how the rod loads up pressure in a progressive manner as a fish strikes. This encourages the fish to hold on to it slightly longer, resulting in more hook-ups.

TRIBAL TX FEATURES INTENSITY PERFORMANCE All TRIBAL TX models feature Intensity actions in addition to the normal range of test curves. Intensity models have been developed for maximum casting performance and use a range of different carbon blends (depending on price) and advanced tapers, to harness the power of the cast. The handles are also longer (70cm) than standard rods of the same length, to help generate more tip speed during the cast. Intensity rods have been designed for maximum casting performance using a 3oz (85g) to 5oz (142g) lead, with the optimum weight being 4.5oz (128g).

TEST CURVES LENGTHS, STRENGTHS & PERFORMANCE The figures in the table are for the TRIBAL rod range and are actual distances measured by Mike Dagnall (one of the UK’s longest casters), using a Big Pit 14000 reel with a 50lb shockleader, tied to 0.31mm (10lb) Aero Carp mono and no rig. You can see from the results how the test curve rating (and length) relates to the maximum performance for each given lead weight, with the ‘sweet spot’ for maximum distance being between 3oz (85g) to 4oz (113g).

GUIDES The use of quality guides on a carp rod is very important for reducing line friction when casting and preventing tangles. SHIMANO carp rods feature Kigan or Seaguide guides. The use of 50mm butt rings on longer casting rods is widespread and anti-tangle tip guides are a common feature throughout the range.
KIGAN 3D Kigan 3D guides are lightweight, strong and have zirconia linings. They can be found on the TX-Ultra (12ft INT & 13ft INT) and TX-9 models.

The TRIBAL TX-Ultra is a remarkable example of advanced rod engineering. Unparalleled casting performance, created by a combination of three exclusive SHIMANO carbon technologies, combined with excellent fish-playing characteristics makes this range the go-to choice for anglers who want maximum casting distance without compromise. If you are looking for the ultimate long range rod, you’ll find nothing better than the TX-Ultra. This is the rod that will enable you to hit distances you once thought unatainable, with an accuracy that maximises your technique. The futuristic design, with subtle graphics, looks sensational on the bank and is an investment that you will never regret. For maximum range and heavy leads, the Intensity versions deliver record braking performance, whilst the 3.00lb and 3.25lb are more suited to medium and smaller leads. Whichever you choose you can be sure that there is nothing better.

The TRIBAL TX-7 range has been designed to master large, more demanding waters. With strength and power at the forefront of their design, the range features some of SHIMANO TRIBAL’s longest casting models, yet remains deceptively slim, lightweight and responsive. If you fish large waters, where long range casting is required to get you on the fish, the TX-7 will most definitely appeal. This is a rod that broke the tournament World record for a 4oz lead with a cast of 247yards! Pick up either of the Intensity models and you will immediately feel the power hidden in the almost impossibly slim blank, whilst the more conventional test curves between 2.75lb and 3.25lb offer a superb compromise between casting power and fish-playing functionality.

The new TX-5 sits proudly in the renowned TRIBAL Specimen range, delivering a rare blend of cutting-edge performance, standout aesthetics and real value for money. The new TX 5B has been developed to give carp anglers optimal control at every stage of the cast and playing carp. Feeling the lead down or controlling the fish can only be done accurately when the rod is able to transmit all “information” from the mainline to the angler. The overall lightweight TX-5B is built to do exactly that, delivering crisp, immediate feedback.

PRECISION TO WIN Whether you are competing at the very highest level of competition fishing, or just challenging yourself at your local water, SHIMANO AERO ensures you maximise your performance and enhance your enjoyment. At the highest level, the difference between success and failure is almost imperceptible. Any edge or advantage, however small, can make a huge difference. It may be a bonus fish, a last minute bite, or casting with pinpoint accuracy. There are so many critical situations. With SHIMANO AERO you can tip the balance in your favour, giving you the very best chance of success. All SHIMANO AERO products have been fine-tuned for success and made with the precision that you expect from SHIMANO. It’s a precision you can see, touch, and feel. A precision that inspires confidence and enables you to enjoy the moment when it matters most.
SHIMANO ALIGNMENT SYSTEM SHIMANO ALIGNMENT SYSTEM markers are placed at each end of the pole sections. These indicate the spine of each section and when lined up offer maximum stiffness and responsiveness.
ULTRA SOUND SANDING A special ultra sound finishing technique is applied to the main sections of the pole. This produces a smooth ‘satin-like’ finish which makes the pole easier to handle in all weather conditions.
AERO JOINT On the male joints the Diamond finish prevents joints from sticking. The female joints have a 1K cross carbon weave to minimise the chances of sections damage under pressure.

The AERO X5 Pole has been designed using the AERO Pro mandrel and offers brilliant all-round versatility and performance at a midrange price. Well balanced, fast and light, making it a great choice for both canal as commercial anglers who target F1 and carp. Using the same mandrel as the top-end AERO Pro but with a tougher carbon build, the X5 offers advanced design and high performance at a more accessible cost. It handles well at its full 16m length and feels very similar to premium poles at 13m and under. With Super Power kits, the X5 is strong and dependable for landing large numbers of hard-fighting fish. Switch to the Super Match kits and it becomes an excellent silver-fish pole, especially at 13m competition lengths. For commercial waters packed with F1’s, two 1-piece AERO Pro F1 kits (sold separately) are also available, rated to 14 elastic for big weights of F1’s and small carp.

Ideal as a standalone margin pole when strength is of the upmost importance, it is also compatible with AERO X3, X2, and X1 poles.

The 8.5 metre length enables you to reach most margin spots where bigger fish often feed. If you own an AERO X3, X3 or X1 pole you can add it to your holdall as a back-up pole. The high quality carbon used in the construction also makes the AERO Power Margin easy to use in combination with the compatible 10m extension for more length.

The new AERO X-TIPS fit all current feeder rod ranges. These premium quivertips have advanced tapers to create a smooth blended action with the rod. The transition between blank and the AERO X-TIP creates the perfect action and bend during the cast and while playing fish. Also, because the solid tips are built from the highest quality carbon and fitted with strong, lightweight premium guides, they have a controlled sensitivity for ultimate bite detection. The fluid action bends in the right area of the tip to maximise bite detection, resulting in more fish caught. The Small Diameter (SD) tips are designed for lighter feeder rods and have a parabolic action. The Large Diameter (LD) tips have a fast action. Premium AERO X-TIPS are compatible with any SHIMANO feeder rod with a Small Diameter (SD) or Large Diameter (LD) fitting on the carrier section.

The new Finesse Hybrid AERO X-Tips are designed to perfectly complement all current Shimano feeder rod ranges. Featuring a responsive carbon lower section and ultra-sensitive fibreglass tip, these premium hybrid quivertips are ideal for targeting smaller and shy-biting fish such as roach and skimmers in stillwaters and slow-moving rivers. The sensitive tip maximises bite registration and encourages fish to hold the bait for longer. The hybrid construction combines casting performance with sensitivity. The carbon base delivers the crispness and recovery needed for accurate feeder casting, while the fibreglass top highlights delicate bites and helps reduce tangles and crack-offs when using lighter lines. Small Diameter (SD) 2.3mm tips feature small guides for Shimano AERO Finesse and Precision feeder rods, while Large Diameter (LD) 3.7mm tips have larger guides for use with shock leaders and Precision or Distance feeder rods.

The highest level of air-time with casting performance limited to this series. In offshore casting games, casting distance is the greatest weapon desired by all anglers. The OCEA Plugger Limited is a rod developed with the aim of focusing on the highest level of air time. Lightweight and highly responsive blanks improve casting speed with their lightness and at the same time, support full scale casts for longer fishing sessions. The rebounding force that has been thoroughly increased, exerts enough power to bend the tough blanks, enabling stable ‘loading up’ for long-distance casts. The design that allows the blanks to bend smoothly up to the grip reduces the impact and stress typically found in highly-resilient rods, making it easier to tell the timing of the cast. The guides have also been optimized to allow for smooth line outlay. We believe outstanding casting performances help sharpen the angler’s senses and brings the excitement for even seasoned anglers to improve themselves to newer heights!

BLANK TECHNOLOGY SPIRAL X CORE
XSR
MUSCLE CARBON
SHIMANO’s unique and patented SPIRAL X CORE construction consists of three layers: a first layer of carbon tape that spirals tightly around the blank in a diagonal direction, a middle sheet of carbon made out of vertical fibres and an outer layer comprising carbon tape that tightly spirals the blank in the opposite direction to the first layer. By using carbon tape, instead of a conventional horizontal fibre sheet, SPIRAL X enhances torsional rigidity without adding extra weight. SPIRAL X CORE makes use of the same construction as SPIRAL X, with the addition of a Nano resin distribution technology in the carbon tape. Nano resin technology distributes the resin more evenly through the carbon fibres resulting in a stronger, lighter rod. SPIRAL X CORE has 1.4 times better anti-twist capabilities and 2.5 times more compression rigidity compared to SPIRAL X.
XSR is an advanced multi-directional carbon sheet with Super Resin treatment that reinforces the blank both internally and externally, producing a highly efficient transmission of force.
MUSCLE CARBON is a high-performance material that reduces the gaps between fibres, by bundling carbon filaments together at a higher density than traditional carbon sheet. This reduces the amount of resin need to fill the gaps in the carbon matrix during the curing process.
SPIRAL X SHIMANO’s unique and patented SPIRAL X construction consists of three layers: a first layer of carbon tape that spirals tightly around the blank in a diagonal direction, a middle sheet of carbon made out of vertical fibres and an outer layer comprising carbon tape that tightly spirals the blank in the opposite direction to the first layer. By using carbon tape, instead of a conventional horizontal fibre sheet, SPIRAL X enhances torsional rigidity without adding extra weight. This construction results in less overlapping of material, which would normally result in a spine and weak spots.
HIGH PRESSURE CARBON SHIMANO HIGH PRESSURE CARBON (HPC) is a process which creates stronger, more responsive blanks. Pressure is applied with a compression tape to the blank surface before curing (heating), which evenly distributes the resin through the carbon fibre matrix.
NANOSHEET NANOSHEET is a multiple carbon sheet construction, which incorporates Nano resin distribution technology. The resin, which holds the different carbon fibres together, is distributed more evenly across the carbon fibres, resulting in a stronger and more light weight rod, with less potential defects and weak spots.
NANOSHEET + NANOSHEET+ is an advanced multi-carbon sheet construction featuring next-generation nano resin distribution technology. The optimized resin and carbon fibre alignment creates a stronger, lighter, and more responsive blank with improved structural integrity and reduced weak points. This enhances sensitivity, blank recovery, and casting precision.
HI-POWER X SHIMANO‘s HI-POWER X construction, uses different carbon layers to create the blank. The outermost layer of carbon tape is diagonally wrapped in opposite directions, which forms an array of “X” shapes. The width of the tape, its winding angle and the part of the rod being wrapped are finely-tuned according to the rods intended use. The flexibility allows SHIMANO to adjust these wraps during construction for precise actions, enhanced overall strength and increased twist resistance. In short, HI-POWER X construction delivers sharp and crisp rod control.
BIOFIBRE SHIMANO‘s unique BIOFIBRE construction improves overall rod strength and resistance to shock whilst producing increased lifting power in the tip.
GEOFIBRE GEOFIBRE is a naturally derived component that provides rigidity and high tensile strength when added to rods in the lower to mid-price rod band.
MUSCLE LOOP MUSCLE LOOP is formed using a spiral carbon tape, wrapped on the outside of the blank, which reduces the natural ‘spine’ of the blank and also improves strength. This helps prevent the blank from distorting under extreme pressure.
ULTRA SOUND SANDING A special ultra sound finishing technique is applied to the main sections of the pole. This produces a smooth ‘satin-like’ finish which makes the pole easier to handle in all weather conditions.
GRIP TECHNOLOGY FULL CARBON MONOCOQUE The FULL CARBON MONOCOQUE grip is an evolution of the Carbon Monocoque grip and features up to 28% increased sensitivity. Normally the grip section, behind the reel seat is made of EVA or cork, however with the Full Carbon Monocoque grip this section is also moulded from a hollow carbon structure. This greatly improves the lightness and ability to detect vibrations transmitted to the hand. In addition, the carbon grip section is cushioned to prevent slipping with the hand.
CARBON MONOCOQUE The CARBON MONOCOQUE grip is a one-piece hollow carbon construction, which is integrated seamlessly into the rod blank. The remarkably lightweight handle is stiffer than traditional rod construction, reduces the overall weight of the rod and also increases vibration transmition.
NANOPITCH
DIAFLASH
CARBON SHELL GRIP
With NANOPITCH manufacturing technology SHIMANO wraps a compression tape, with high precision, over the carbon blank before the curing (heating) process. The NANOPITCH method enables the carbon on the mandrel to be compressed extremely firmly, with uniform pressure, creating circularity pressure which contributes greatly to overall rod strength. NANOPITCH is always applied in combination with the SPIRAL X CORE blank construction to maximize rod performance.
With SHIMANO‘s DIAFLASH construction, the outermost layer of the butt section is diagonally wrapped in opposite directions with carbon tape, which forms an array of “X” shapes. The width of the tape, its winding angle and the part of the rod being wrapped are fine-tuned according to the rods intended use. DIAFLASH is a reinforced structure that prevents twisting of the butt section in situations where high-intensity pressure is applied.
The CARBON SHELL Grip is a next-generation grip structure made entirely from hollow carbon fibre, designed to maximise sensitivity and vibration transmission. Its lightweight, rigid construction connects seamlessly to the reel seat, allowing anglers to feel even the slightest underwater movement directly through the rod and into their hand.
TWIST CONTROL An anti-twist blank construction process which is applied to Big Game saltwater rods.

REEL SEAT TECHNOLOGY
ROD ACTIONS
Ci4+
EXTRA-FAST ACTION
KIGAN 3D GUIDES
The Ci4+ reel seat is a moulded one-piece composite construction that is very lightweight, strong and resistant to distortion. The composite is one of the strongest materials SHIMANO use and is over 1.5 times stronger that traditional composite materials. Ci4+ is also water resistant and not affected by corrosion, making it suitable for salt water use.
A very light and sensitive tip facilitates an effective transfer of energy resulting in effortless pin-point casts, near or far. This action will make any angler a more effective caster.
Kigan 3D guides are becoming increasingly popular, especially on specimen rods where the lightweight, strong frames and zirconia linings aid distance casting.
FAST ACTION
Seaguide guides are becoming increasingly popular and offer reliable, friction reducing performance and reliability. Generally fitted to mid-priced rods within the SHIMANO range.
X SEAT X SEAT is an innovative reel seat designed to improve grip, comfort, and control with a more natural hand position and secure fit, available in a range of models tailored for various fishing styles.
HANDLE TECHNOLOGY POWER CORK Created from natural cork, POWER CORK uses an exclusive SHIMANO treatment to enhance its durability and practicality. Warm to the touch and comfortable to handle POWER CORK does not degrade or age cosmetically and is washable.
TIP SECTION TECHNOLOGY
SEAGUIDE GUIDES Fast action rods have a light tip that transfers into the power quickly for positive hook sets and effortless repetitive casting. If you are looking for a lure rod to do it all, a fast action rod is a solid choice.
HARDLITE GUIDES MODERATE-FAST ACTION The deeper flex associated with this action allows the angler to control the energy of the fish with additional confidence. This action offers an unsurpassable ability to land the majority of fish hooked on the lightest tackle.
MODERATE ACTION
AERO JOINT On the male joints the Diamond finish prevents joints from sticking. The female joints have a 1K cross carbon weave to minimise the chances of sections damage under pressure.
S.A.S. TECHNOLOGY
TAFTEC ALPHA
SHIMANO ALIGNMENT SYSTEM SHIMANO ALIGNMENT SYSTEM is a system to optimise blank action. During the production process, the spine of the blanks is marked on the sections of a telescopic rod.
TAFTEC INFINITY
The X guide was born from the viewpoint to bring out the potential of blanks to the full. Supporting the guide rings of the tip part is a one-piece structure frame molded with the latest material by 3D technology. Its beautiful shape combines strength with the calculated inclination angle and threedimensional structure to suppress line entanglement. The tip guides are light and small. In the butt part we have the Aero Titanium X guide which contributes to casting feeling and casting distance. X guide is Shimano’s original high performance guide which fused lightness, trouble less, casting performance to higher dimensions.
EXCITE TOP EXCITE TOP is a special tip that enhances the shake performance of lures and contributes to sensitivity. The tip section is tapered and slightly heavier at the top. This construction expands the swing width of the tip, enabling shaking with an automatic feeling. The movement seen by the eyes, and the sensitivity transmitted to the hands, is greatly improved.
SOFTUBE TOP The SOFTUBE TOP provides the sensitivity of an ultra fine solid carbon tip with the lightness of a hollow/ tubular tip construction. This tip construction can be found on models where sensitivity and finesse are both important requirements.
AERO JONT TECHNOLOGY
Whenever an angler needs the perfect action to absorb the surging power of a fish delivering aggressive headshakes or quick runs, a moderate action rod neutralizes their power.
TAFTEC ALPHA tips utilise a pre-stretched T-3500 directional yarn fibre with low resin saturation. This directional alignment of the fibres in the solid tip results in much less damage during the grinding process and results in a spineless construction. In tests it has been shown to be much stronger, lower in weight, faster in action and more sensitive.
TAFTEC INFINITY realizes three times the winding strength and five times the winding amount of our conventional solid tips. It is a high intensity solid tip that surpasses the strength and sensitvity of Taftec Alpha.
Hardlite guides have been used by SHIMANO for many years and are proven to be reliable across a wide range of rod applications. Offering excellent value, they are fitted to lower priced rods.
GUIDES X GUIDES
FUJI GUIDES Fuji guides are world famous for their quality. Available in many different options, including the famous ‘K-type’ anti-tangle design, Fuji guides are generally fitted to higher performance rods.

KEEPNETS
4M KEEPNET
All rings are made from strong extruded anodised aluminium tube which retains the rectangular shape and integrity better than plastic alternatives and the bottom three rings are externally positioned to prevent rubbing of the mesh on the ring corners. This significantly increases the longevity of the net, especially when used for match carp fishing or on flowing rivers. The top ring is fitted with an ultra strong polycarbonate (ABS) block that has a screw tight multi-position design enabling you to achieve the perfect top ring angle to suit your preference.
The 4m is designed for competitive anglers who demand strength, reliability, and premium fish welfare, the AERO Pro 4 Meter Keepnet is purpose-built for performance on flowing rivers and stillwaters alike. Featuring a spacious open mesh design that reduces water resistance and ensures optimal submersion even from elevated banks, this net delivers the perfect balance of durability, fish welfare, and match-ready functionality. Designed to handle big catches and tough conditions, it’s an essential part of any serious match setup.

If you’re after a high-end landing net handle that matches your skill and ambition, the AERO Pro is the ultimate choice. Precision-engineered for elite performance, it’s available in two versatile lengths — 4m (usable at 4m, 3m, and 2.5m) and 5m (usable at 5m, 3.5m, and 3.2m) — giving you complete control in any match scenario. Built for serious strength, both models feature double pinned and glued threads for rock-solid durability. Additional shrink wrap is added next to the threads further increasing reliability. The ultra-smooth outer finish glides effortlessly through your hands, while strategically placed reinforcement ensures strength where it’s needed most. Featuring SHIMANO’s AERO Joint for added structural integrity, tactile embossed logos for a premium feel, and EVA butt caps, the AERO Pro isn’t just a handle — it’s a high-performance upgrade.

LURES
Whilst a landing net handle isn’t going to hook you any more fish, the use of a high quality one like the AERO Competition certainly makes netting easier, more assured and quicker. One of the biggest advantages of the AERO is its versatility as it can be used at two lengths. At its full 4m length it makes a great natural venue silver fish net and at 2.9m it is perfect for commercial match fisheries containing carp of all sizes. The impressive specifications of the AERO includes a Full Carbon cross wrap blank (not heavy, thick walled composite), which is stiff and strong, making it great for scooping large carp using the 2.90m length, when building a big weight, or reaching a bream at full 4.00m length on a shallow natural venue. Stainless Steel threads, which have been double pinned and glued, make sure this handle will never let you down when you need it most and both the 4m and 2.9m section have an anti-slip section to ensure increased grip when wet.

Built with advanced 8-carrier construction and incorporating cutting-edge technologies including TOUGH CROSS 2, HEAT SINK COATING, and FILAMENT X, OCEA 8 delivers exceptional abrasion resistance, heat control, and linear strength. This premium braid is purpose-built for offshore and heavy-duty fishing applications where reliability is non-negotiable.

TOUGH CROSS 2, a 45-degree tensioned weave, significantly boosts abrasion resistance - ideal when fishing near reefs, wrecks, or rugged structure.

KAIRIKI 8 braid is a highly technical 8 carrier braid that uses an exclusive tight weave VT Construction to produce a smoother finish and reduced diameter. Perfect for all applications in both fresh and saltwater, the smooth profile casts extremely well and also minimises noise when running through the rod guides under tension. If you are the type of angler who appreciates the significant benefits that using braid can bring, them the premium rated SHIMANO KAIRIKI 8 braid is for you. Compared to many 8 carrier braids, the KAIRIKI 8 is noticeably smoother with a rounder profile, which results in longer more accurate casts, increased sensitivity and also reduces noise when playing fish. Available in a wide range of diameters in both high visibility (Yellow, Mantis Green and Multi) and low visibility (Steel Grey) colours, KAIRIKI will take your fishing to a completely new level.

G5 MYSTERIOUS POWER
BAIT
KAIRIKI G5 maintains all of the characteristics of KAIRIKI braids, with the advantage of sinking performance. Manufactured using 4 carrier Japanese PE braid strands, with an additional high density, heavy core, KAIRIKI G5 is less affected by wind or current. Perfect for deeper diving lures and jigging, plus carp and feeder fishing. KAIRIKI G5 is a fantastic sinking braid to choose if you fish with a lot of deep working lures, or want a braid for carp or feeder fishing. The addition of an additional strand of heavy, super dense fibre to the 4 carrier design creates a sinking braid that easily cuts through the water’s surface tension and slowly sinks. When working deep lures you’ll feel in more direct contact, especially in windy conditions when the surface tow can create unwanted bows and slack line. For carp and feeder fishing, especially at long range, the sinking KAIRIKI G5 is a game changer.

POWERPRO Depth-Hunter braid is constructed from the same ultra strong Spectra Fibre as standard POWERPRO and includes POWERPROEnhanced Body Technology. Depth-Hunter benefits from five repeating colors along its length to enable accurate depth or distance measurement when fishing. Do you ever wonder how deep your bait is, how far behind the boat you are trolling your favorite lure, or even how far your cast went? Wonder no more, POWERPRO’s Depth-Hunter features five repeating 10m sections (blue, orange, green, pink, and yellow) that repeat every 50m, as well as a black tick-mark every meter for accurate and instant depth measurement. This allows you to easily and accurately present your lure in the strike zone. Depth-Hunter can also help anglers determine depth or casting distance because it casts and performs just like standard POWERPRO.

POWERPRO braid has an enviable reputation for strength and durability, and has been trusted by anglers for years. Constructed from ultra strong Spectra Fibres, it has a hard coating treatment that does not affect the limpness and softness to any noticeable level, but greatly increases durability and usability. Want a braid to cope with the toughest conditions, in both fresh and saltwater? With its reputation for toughness, durability and very importantly usability, POWERPRO is the answer. Remarkably smooth and round for a 4 carrier braid, POWERPRO benefits from a special coating to the fibre which although is unperceivable to the eye, but makes a big difference in use, as it prevents the line from bedding in when on the spool. The benefit is smooth, longer casts on both spinning and baitcasting reels and a toughness that overcomes challenges no matter what.

EX FLUORO LEADER OCEA EX Fluoro Leader is a premium quality fluorocarbon leader that provides many advantages when fishing in clear water for wary fish. Thinner than traditional mono leaders and with a refractive index very close to that of water, making it virtually invisible, it is also incredibly abrasion resistant and knots exceptionally well, even in the larger sizes. Irrespective of whether you are fishing a braid or mono main line, you’ll benefit greatly from using a leader made from the OCEA EX Fluoro Leader. Virtually invisible when underwater, you’ll instantly see an improvement in your strike rates, especially in clear water and the excellent abrasion resistance makes it tough enough to overcome underwater obstacles, hard bony mouths and sharp fins.

TRIBAL Fluorocarbon is a premium quality fluorocarbon main line for carp anglers who want an incredibly quick sinking, highly abrasion resistant reel line. Almost invisible underwater, TRIBAL Fluorocarbon also has excellent flexibility for improved casting performance. If you fish clear carp waters that have snags and gravel bars to overcome, a fluorocarbon main line can offer you a serious advantage. Admittedly, fluorocarbon doesn’t have the extreme casting capabilities of braid, but when it comes to minimal visibility and abrasion resistance, TRIBAL Fluorocarbon leads the way. The sinking characteristics makes it a brilliant option if you local waters are stocked with line wary carp and is especially beneficial if you fish with lightweight indicators or slack lines.

TECHNIUM is a low stretch sinking mono that combines excellent strength with high abrasion resistance. An advanced triple layer construction reduces linear stretch to whilst retaining the suppleness required for trouble free fishing and improved presentation. If you are a serious carp angler you will already know that TECHNIUM mono has a fantastic reputation in the carp fishing world and has been one of the leading hi-tech lines for a number of years. With its reduced stretch and high strength to diameter ratio, TECHNIUM is the perfect compromise between braid and ‘normal’ mono lines. You’ll certainly notice how well it casts and for carp anglers using lightweight indicators or slack lines, its sensitivity, combined with its sinking properties, is a serious advantage, as well as the limited stretch that offers a better fish-playing experience when compared to zero stretch braided lines.

TECHNIUM Hi-Vis Mono is a low-stretch, sinking monofilament line engineered for anglers who demand maximum visibility, casting performance and reliable control at long range. Featuring the same advanced triple-layer construction as the original TECHNIUM, plus a double silicone coating, the highly visible fluorescent yellow colour is ideal for distance fishing situations where line tracking and visibility are essential - especially when beach casting or when using modern carp fishing applications. TECHNIUM Hi-Vis Mono takes the legendary performance of TECHNIUM and adds a bold high-visibility finish that’s perfect for anglers who need maximum line control at distance. Whether you’re beach casting into rough surf or targeting carp at extreme range, the bright fluorescent yellow colour makes it easy to track your line in all light conditions. The high visible yellow colour helps to see where the fish is going in low light conditions and during night fishing. The low-stretch construction delivers outstanding sensitivity and direct contact, helping you detect subtle bites faster and strike with confidence. Carp anglers fishing large venues or slack-line set-ups will appreciate the enhanced visibility when positioning lines or fishing at night, while saltwater anglers benefit from improved line control in heavy surf and crosswinds.

FLOAT AERO Float mono is a high quality, low stretch mono designed primarily for float fishing, which in the two strongest options can also be used for competition feeder fishing on natural venues due to its semi-buoyant, high strength properties. If you are looking for a high quality line for float fishing, AERO Float is for you. With excellent suppleness, it casts extremely well, even when you are using lightweight floats, and the semi-buoyant properties offer great versatility. Without any treatment, the line will sit on the surface tension of the water enabling you to control Bolognese type floats with ease, but is you are fishing a waggler, or in windy conditions where you want to sink the line below the surface, a quick flick of the rod tip will drop the line under the surface. And when it comes to hitting bites, the reduced stretch offers you almost instant contact. LUGGAGE CLOTHING

So it makes sense to use the best surf line you can find and the SPEEDMASTER Surf Main Line certainly lives up to its name.

TAPERED SURF LEADER
SUNGLASSES
If you want to maximise your surf casting distance, one of the simplest and most cost effective ways to do it is to use a thinner main line with a stronger mono shock leader. For trouble free efficient performance, a tapered shock leader like the SPEEDMASTER Tapered Surf Leader is the favoured option. You get maximum strength at the front end of the leader, to absorb the initial shock of the cast, but a thinner knot where it joins your main line enabling the line to run freely through your rod guides.

TAPERED SURF If you have only used heavy mono for your surfcasting, the use of a tapered main line like the SPEEDMASTER Tapered Surf Line has the potential to transform your casting performance. With a strong front end to absorb the initial shock of the cast, the main body of the line is much thinner, which reduces distance robbing friction. Another advantage over using heavy line, or using a thinner main line with a heavy shock leader, is the lack of a knot, which reduces potential problems during the cast, or when fishing in weedy shores where rubbish can catch on the knot.

FLASH BOOST FLASHBOOST technology is an exclusive, innovative feature, integrated into SHIMANO lures to enhance their attraction to fish. It employs a reflective foil mirror suspended on micro springs within the lure’s body, creating a continuous flashing effect even when the lure is stationary. This mimics the natural movements and flashes of bait-fish, increasing visibility and appeal in various water conditions. Flash Boost lures are designed to entice predatory fish by simulating the erratic reflections seen in distressed prey and is especially useful when targeting cautious fish that are wary of too much erratic movement. This cutting-edge technology provides anglers with a competitive edge, improving their chances of a strike by making the lure more lifelike and enticing.

SCALE BOOST SCALE BOOST is a revolutionary lure technology that enhances the realism of SHIMANO lures. Utilising an intricate holographic design, Scale Boost accurately replicates the natural scale patterns of bait-fish with stunning precision. This 3D-like appearance creates life-like reflections and subtle movements, making the lure incredibly convincing to predatory fish. By closely mimicking the natural look of real fish scales, Scale Boost increases the lure’s effectiveness in attracting fish, especially in clear water conditions. Scale Boost technology makes lures more enticing, providing a significant advantage in both freshwater and saltwater. Five different patterns are used depending on the lure type.
NATURAL A hologram that reproduces real, ‘natural’ fish scales which shine independently.
APPEAL A hologram that reproduces real fish scales and enhances its presence by increasing the size of the scales.

ARMABOOST SHIMANO ARMABOOST lure technology solves the challenges associated with casting jointed swimbaits long distances. A unique innovative joint system, comprising of a hinge and magnet combination, enables the lure to fold into a compact and stable position during flight, increasing both distance and also accuracy. Hook entanglement is also eliminated by the meticulous position of the hook eye, the body angle and a micro lock system the semi-fixes the hook in flight. Upon landing the body immediately re-aligns and engages the magnet plates, which contribute to the natural swimming action. This results in a more reliable, effective lure that can withstand rigorous use while providing superior casting distance and accuracy for anglers.

If you are one of the increasing numbers of anglers discovering the benefits of large swimming jointed baits for catching the largest freshwater predators, you’ll certainly be interested in the BANTAM ArmaJoint 190SF FLASH BOOST. The ArmaJoint technology greatly increases casting performance by enabling the lure to completely fold in half during 50casting, producing a more compact shape. And a clever ‘hook-lock’ system eliminates the front and back hooks from fouling whilst in the air. But every lure should be judged on its fishing performance and the inclusion 59 SP MRplaced 59ofSPstrategically magnets in the ends of the sections improves alignment, which results in a more natural swimming action, even at low speeds. 115F 115FMD Fish the BANTAM ArmaJoint 190SF FLASH BOOST slowly and smoothly, or with aggressive intermittent movements for aggressive takes.

The CARDIFF ARMAJOINT 60SS is a long casting jointed swimbait designed for trout and other small predators. Featuring ARMABOOST for increased casting performance and improved swimming action, plus life-like SCALE BOOST for a natural prey-fish appearance, this highly technical lure has a great action, even at slower speeds. The CARDIFF Armajoint 60SS is a great trout lure to use when you need to fish a slow moving swimbait to entice trout to feed. The ARMAJOINT technology increases casting performance by enabling the lure to fold during casting, producing a more compact shape. And a clever ‘hook-lock’ system eliminates the front and back hooks from fouling whilst in the air. The addition of strategically placed magnets in the ends of the sections improves alignment, which results in a more natural swimming action, even at low speeds, making it perfect for days when trout and other small predators are inactive and not feeding aggressively. When used in clear water, the addition of SCALE BOOST gives this highly attractive lure a more life-like appearance, which often triggers fish to strike with more confidence.

The YASEI Soul Swim is a versatile, slow sinking jointed swimbait, with a soft tail and dorsal fin to promote more confident takes. Combining a very realistic visual appearance with a fantastic natural swimming action, the Soul Swim has two connection rings for working at different depths. If you are looking for a realistic life-like swim bait to target the largest pike and zander, the YASEI Soul Swim is a great option, especially in clear water. With its realistic appearance and superb swimming action, the 230mm version is a great lure to target the largest pike, whilst the smaller 160mm version will attract pike and the largest zander. When fished with a simple steady retrieve the Soul Swim produces a natural swimming action mimicking a moving bait fish, making it great for covering a lot of water. Alternatively use a twitch or jerking action to make it move erratically like a wounded or distressed bait fish to really entice wary predators. For increased versatility the Soul Swim can be attached by the front ring for a shallower straighter retrieve, or by the top ring to create a deeper running depth and different action profile.

The YASEI Javelin Jerk is an easy to fish Jerkbait that has a superb sliding action designed to attract large freshwater predators. If you like to work your lures, creating your own unique actions, you are going to really appreciate the YASEI Javelin Jerk. Each jerk of the rod tip (or quick wind of the reel handle) creates an enticing and slightly unpredictable sliding action that large predators find hard to resist. When stationary between jerks, the Javelin quickly balances itself ready for the next movement, with the suspending version sitting almost motionless, whilst the sinking version slowly sinks lower in the water column.

Although the BANTAM BT Spin can be used with50 a smooth constant retrieve, where the rear blade will spin, flash and vibrate, but if you really want to get the best from this lure it is best fished with a lift, fall, and stop technique. As the lure falls under its own weight, the blade creates SP 59and SPattraction, MR 59interest but the really outstanding feature is how it sits on the bottom.

You can work the BANTAM World Diver 99SP down to a depth of 2 metres or more with a reasonably fast retrieve or powerful sweep of the rod, enabling you to cover more of the water column. And when paused, the suspending nature of this long casting model holds station, gently pulsating light reflection from the FLASH BOOST technology. To further enhance the visual effect, and fool wary fish, the life-like SCALE BOOST 50 holographic pattern accurately mimics that of a bait fish. To enable you to cover more water, the addition of JET BOOST technology increases casting distance and accuracy, especially in windy conditions. 59 SP 59 SP MR The World Diver is a great lure when faced with a vast amount of open water in front of you.

The YASEI Trigger Twitch is a twitch bait lure designed for anglers who like to fish with an active approach. When worked with different twitch techniques it produces a darting action that resembles a wounded or nervous fish. Available in two options - Suspending (SP) and Deep Running Suspending (D-SP), the YASEI Trigger Twitch range offers excellent versatility. If you are an angler who likes to really work your lures you are going to be instantly drawn to the YASEI Trigger Twitch. This versatile twitch bait really comes into its own when fishing in clear water, especially in shallow areas around fish-holding features. Depending on which option you select, you can work these lures from just under the surface down to 3m, giving you fantastic water coverage. With excellent balance and specially tuned front lips you can use a wide range of twitch techniques from fast to slow, with short or long pauses. Each twitch fires the lures into action with a nervous darting action that imitates a wounded or confused bait fish, whilst the pause enables the lure to retain its balance and is often the time when predators will hit the lure with extreme speed and force.

The CARDIFF Folletta is a must have lure for trout anglers who like to fish rivers. The slow sinking buoyancy ensures the lure stays under the surface and directly in the trout’s line of sight, even when paused. Give it a series of short, sharp jerks and you’ll see the Folletta adopt the ‘nervous’ kicking action with a finishing roll similar to that of a small bait fish. Using a smooth and constant retrieve, especially in fast water produces a tight rolling action with lots of stability.

The CARDIFF Flügel Flat is a fantastic long casting trout minnow-type lure that is suited to open water. Mimicking a bait fish, you can crank this lure down to 0.5m, making it perfect for fish feeding in the top layers. Using a steady retrieve, the Flügel Flat has an impressive straight and realistic swimming action, but to really put life into it you must try a jerking action, interspersed with a short pause. This will make the lure dart erratically in a wide, aggressive action during the jerk, followed by a head up profile as it slowly rises to the surface.

Designed for targeting trout in both still and moving water, the CARDIFF Bullet takes some of its design influence from the famous long range saltwater ‘Silent Assassin’ bass lure. Using JET BOOST moving weight technology you can really punch this lure out a long way, making it ideal when you want to reach fish at distance or cover a lot of water. When retrieved with a constant smooth speed, the swimming action has a vibration like quality, but when jerked it swings wide with an aggressive flash and roll. The head down balance also offers a fish enticing, swaying profile when paused during the retrieve. For additional attraction in clear water, SCALE BOOST 3D holographic film gives a remarkable life-like scale pattern to fool wary trout.

The CARDIFF Refrain 50HS is a long-casting sinking lure that features Scale Boost for a natural prey-fish appearance. Designed especially for trout but equally as effective for other smaller freshwater predators like perch and chub, it has a fluttering, highflashing action when retrieved and a ‘shimmy fall’ action when paused. The CARDIFF Refrain is a great trout lure if you have to fish at distance to reach the trout. Although lightweight and relatively small in size, because of the rear weighting the CARDIFF Refrain really does fly through the air with arrow like straightness and can achieve surprisingly long distances. If you use a smooth and constant retrieve it generates a fluttering high flash action, which is magnified by the straight sided body shape and SCALE BOOST technology. The faster you wind, the more aggressive the action, however pause the CARDIFF Refrain and it instantly changes into an enticing ‘shimmy fall’ action that replicates a wounded bait fish.

Ideal for targeting large perch, pike and zander the YASEI Chit Chat Chatter features a multi-strand silicone skirt and a large articulated blade on the jig head. This zink head sinking lure generates massive movement and vibration, enticing predatory fish from distance, especially in coloured water.

EXSENCE Silent Assassin 140 is the most technologically advanced large Sea Bass lure SHIMANO has ever produced. Available in floating and sinking options it features FLASH BOOST, JET BOOST and SCALE BOOST with a tight rolling action when retrieved at a constant speed, or long powerful glides when jerked. If you want the ultimate large Sea Bass lure the EXSENCE Silent Assassin 140 should be at the top of your list. Available in floating (F) and sinking (S), this 140mm long Bass hunter features JET BOOST for increased casting performance up to 70m making it perfect when the fish are feeding at distance. FLASH BOOST increases attraction by reflecting light, even when stationary and the life-life scale pattern of SCALE BOOST appeals to the predatory instincts of the superior Bass eyesight. Using a regular constant retrieve the Silent Assassin has a tight rolling action, but an aggressive action can be added by using sharp jerks or a gliding action using long pulls of the rod tip. The floating version will dive to 0.70m and the sinking version is fantastic for fishing to fish feeding at deeper depths.

Designed for targeting hard-hitting saltwater predators, the SHIMANO Ledge Runner delivers exceptional stability and lifelike swimming action. Available in two versatile models - 160F (floating) and 200S (sinking) - this lure is built to perform across a range of conditions, from shallow reef edges to deeper ledges. With six proven fish-catching colours, the Ledge Runner is engineered to provoke aggressive strikes from species such as Tuna, Wahoo and other predatory fish. The Ledge Runner is a high-performance lure built for anglers who demand versatility and reliability. The 160F floating version is perfect for working shallow zones, while the 200S sinking model excels when targeting deeper water columns and stronger currents. Equipped with the innovative ADR (Adjustable Diving Range) system, the swimming depth of each lure can be quickly adjusted by positioning the lip in Deep, Medium, or Shallow diving modes, allowing anglers to adapt instantly to changing conditions. Both sizes feature excellent body stability, an aerodynamic casting profile, and a dynamic swimming action that perfectly mimics distressed baitfish. The Ledge Runner delivers an irresistible presentation that triggers instinctive strikes. Finished in six attractive colour patterns, it adapts easily to varying water clarity and light conditions.

The EXSENCE ARMAJOINT 190 FLASH BOOST is a highly advanced jointed lure that takes functionality to a completely new level. The ARMABOOST technology improves casting performance, whilst preventing hook fouling, and magnets placed strategically into the body sections improve section alignment and swimming action. The addition of FLASH BOOST and SCALE BOOST maximises visual attraction. If you are one of the increasing numbers of anglers discovering the benefits of large jointed lures, the stunning EXSENCE ARMAJOINT 190S FLASH BOOST is one lure you should seek out. The ARMABOOST technology greatly increases casting performance by enabling the lure to completely fold in half during casting, producing a more compact and aerodynamic shape, whilst a clever ‘hook-lock’ system eliminates the front and back hooks from fouling whilst in the air. For maximum visual attraction SCALE BOOST mimics prey fish scale patterns and FLASH BOOST provides a constant flashing to promote aggressive strikes. You can fish the EXSENCE ARMAJOINT 190S FLASH BOOST slowly and smoothly for a natural swimming action, or with more aggressive intermittent movements to draw fish in from distance.

If you prefer to fish lightweight butterfly jigs you’ll love the ‘Pebble Light’. Designed to imitate a weak bait fish, this lure is perfectly balanced to make fishing easier and more effective. With a medium slow falling speed and quick sliding action, it falls through the water with an enticing slide and when at the required depth a light jerk is all that is needed to spark the lure into action. Although designed for slow jigging, the OCEA Stinger Butterfly Pebble Light can be worked using high pitch action to create a powerful escape action, enticing hesitant fish.

Designed to imitate a weak bait fish, you’ll soon see how effective this perfectly balanced lure is as it falls through the water with an enticing, sweeping action. By using both slow and high pitch jerks and also short twitches, you can make the ‘Flat Light’ dart, slide and even spiral, depending on the speed and length of the jerk. And when released to fall, the flat profile and SCALE BOOST pattern catches the light to increase its visibility to fish waiting at deeper depths.

The OCEA Stinger King Slasher features an elongated, slim silhouette with reduced wall thickness, minimising water resistance and angler fatigue while maintaining excellent responsiveness. Its asymmetrical body - designed both top-to-bottom and side-to-side - creates subtle variations in water pressure that produce a sharp sliding action on the lift, followed by a pronounced horizontal wobble on the fall, perfectly imitating a wounded baitfish. This jig performs exceptionally well with standard one-pitch jerks but truly excels when worked with combination jerks using a slightly softer, lightclass rod, making it highly versatile across different jigging techniques. The compact design ensures it reaches the strike zone quickly, even in deeper water or strong currents. Enhanced with SHIMANO’s SCALE BOOST technology, the realistic holographic finish replicates natural baitfish scales, increasing visibility and strike appeal in a wide range of conditions.

The SEPHIA Clinch JET BOOST Shallow is a long casting EGI squid lure that has a slow fall of 7.4 seconds per meter, making it perfect for shallow water fishing from the shore. For maximum performance and visual attraction this versatile squid lure also contains the full range of SHIMANO BOOST technology. If you fish for squid from the shore, especially in shallow water, the SEPHIA Clinch JET BOOST Shallow is one EGI you just can’t ignore. Hidden inside the body is JET BOOST, a moving weight technology that automatically increases your casting range and accuracy, enabling you to cover more water and reach distance squid holding areas. And after landing, this perfectly balanced lure has a slow fall rate, maximising hang time before reaching the bottom. To increase visual attraction, especially when falling or stationary, FLASH BOOST technology uses a reflective mirror to harnesses light and produces a constant flashing. This is further enhanced with life-like SCALE BOOST which is very noticeable in the bright, clear water conditions often associated with rocky shore areas.

Shallow-type EGI squid lures with slow sinking speeds can be very effective for large and cautious squid. Yet, reducing the lure’s weight to slow its descent reduce casting distance and sharpness of the darting action. To overcome this the SEPHIA Clinch Jet Boost Long Appeal features JET BOOST technology. An internal weight moves on a spring at the start of the cast, which moves the centre-of-gravity forward, achieving exceptional casting distances. The sinking speed of approximately 7.4 seconds/m is noticeably slower than a typical shallow-type EGI, ensuring prolonged ‘long-time’ attraction as the lure falls. Equipped with FLASH BOOST, it also attracts squid during descent. This innovative EGI squid lure blends unmatched casting range with a slow descent to give the angler a valuable alternative to traditional EGI lures.

The SEPHIA Sui Sui Dropper is an EGI squid lure with a difference. Unlike many other EGI, this version is balanced to sink slowly with a horizontal profile enabling the lure to maintain its position in the upper strike-zone layers for much longer. For additional attraction, even when stationary, FLASH BOOST technology is incorporated into the SEPHIA Sui Sui Dropper. The patented system uses a reflective mirror suspended by micro springs, which harnesses light and UV rays to attract squid throughout the upper water column. The continuous movement of the mirror within the body is produced by kinetic energy, which is highly effective to these visual hunters, when the jig is paused. Two UV glow areas have also been added to provide maximum visual attraction in low light conditions.

The SEPHIA Suisui Stick is a semi-floating EGI lure with a slim compact body. Perfectly balanced to sink very slowly whilst maintaining a stable, horizontal swimming profile. This enables the lure to maintain its position in the upper layer strike-zone for much longer, where the FLASHBOOST and SCALE BOOST can work to maximum effect. The SEPHIA Suisui Stick is a semi-floating EGI lure designed for fishing in shallow water, where a very slow fall keeps the lure in the strike zone for longer. Maintaining a perfectly horizontal profile when sinking adds to the life-like imitation of a small bait fish. For additional attraction, even when stationary, FLASHBOOST technology is incorporated into the SEPHIA Sui Sui Stick.

SCOPEX LIVER
The remarkable fish-catching effectiveness of ISOLATE Scopex Liver boilies comes from the combination of a nutritional, highly attractive base mix and a sweet creamy Scopex flavour. The core components of the base mix include over 10% protein rich insect meal, liver powder and milk protein. This combination delivers attraction across a wide spectrum and retains its effectiveness in all water temperatures. To further enhance the attractiveness and nutritional profile, Hydrolysed salmon and N-Butyric acid are also included. N-Butyric acid is a natural organic product and in concentrated raw form has a very distinctive smell. When added to ISOLATE Scopex Liver Boilies it increases the amount of short chain fatty acids in the bait, which is proven to stimulate a feeding response in carp. These ingredients are further enhanced with the addition of seeds, minerals and herbs to deliver a truly complex bait that will inspire confidence, even when fishing on the hardest waters.

TX1 Food Syrups and TX1 Hookbait Glugs are available in five classic flavours to match the TX1 Boilie range, making them perfect for enhancing the attraction of your feed or hookbait with an extra boost of carp attracting flavour. Using an odourless glycerine base, which is extremely soluble in water, TX1 Food Syrup and TX1 Hookbait Glug is made using exactly the same ingredients and attractors as the boilies of the same name. The Food Syrup is perfect for increasing the attraction of any particle feed, pellets or spod mix, creating a layer of attraction around your swim for the fish to home in on. The TX1 Hookbait Glug has a thicker, stickier consistency and will increase the attraction of any hookbait and is especially effective when used with the matching TX1 Pop-up range. Both liquids are totally PVA safe and can also be used to increase the flavour and attraction signal when using PVA bags and stick mixes.

Available in five classic fish-catching flavours, the TX1 Pop-ups have something to cover all your bait preferences. If you prefer fishmeal baits the Squid and Octopus (‘washed-out’ pink colour) and the Monster Crab (orange colour) have powerful aromas. The Banana and Pineapple has a bright yellow colour that is great for single baits and zig rigs, whilst the Strawberry is a highly visible bright red. The Tiger Nut has a white colour that works really well on hard fished waters which see a lot of boilie use.

ISOLATE Chilli & Sausage Pop-ups combine a buoyant, meaty base with potent spice and sausage flavours to create hookbaits that are instantly noticed by carp. The high-protein formula and vibrant red colouring provide visual and olfactory appeal, while the spice-driven aroma ensures carp are drawn in from a distance. Designed to complement the boilies and other products in the ISOLATE Chilli & Sausage range, these pop-ups are lightweight and very buoyant, making then very effective as single hookbaits when fishing with Zig rigs, or over beds or particles like maize or fishmeal-based pellets.

ISOLATE Pellets are high quality feed pellets packed with serious big fish attraction. Uniformed in size, they are the perfect addition to any spod mix, make a great carpet feed and add increased attraction when using PVA bags or stick mixes. The larger 12mm and 16mm sizes are pre-drilled to make them easier to use as hookbaits. The pulling power and appeal of ISOLATE Pellets is the combination of fishattracting ingredients. The high quality fishmeal in the pellet is enhanced with a range of natural ingredients including Haemoglobin, Feathermeal, Fish Oil and Poultry Oil. The result is a pellet that is instantly attractive to a wide range of fish including carp, barbel, tench and bream. With a slow breakdown time ISOLATE Pellets keep working harder for longer in all water temperatures.

TX1 Hard Hookbaits are available in 15mm and 20mm sizes in Monster Crab and Banana and Pineapple flavours making them the perfect hookbait to use with the TX1 Boilies of the same flavour, or as a ‘standalone’ high attraction hookbait. These hookbaits have a very hard texture giving extra confidence that your bait is in perfect condition when leaving them in the water for a very long time, or if nuisance fish are encountered and a tougher bait is required. Designed for anglers who demand reliability, TX1 Hard Hookbaits have a tougher texture compared to regular TX1 Boilies. Whether you’re on a long session leaving your bait out for hours or fishing in waters where smaller fish may peck at your hookbait, these hard hookbaits are a real advantage. Once secured on a hair rig, you can fish with absolute confidence knowing your hookbait will stay intact and perfectly positioned, ready for that all-important take from your target fish. Available in 15mm and 20mm sizes, these hookbaits come in two irresistible flavours: the protein-packed Monster Crab for a fishmeal profile and the sweet, tropical blend of Banana and Pineapple. Pair them with TX1 Boilies of the same flavour, use them over a bed of particles or pellets, or even as a single high-attraction hookbait.
