Shimano Poison Glorious Swimbait Casting Rods

Shimano Poison Glorious Swimbait Casting Rods Overview Engineered to extend your casting distance and reduce strain when throwing swimbaits, the Shimano Poison Glorious Swimbait Casting Rods bridge the gap between traditional cork-handled bass rods and the ultra-sensitive feel of a true JDM build. Tuned for peak performance through a combination of Shimano's Ultimate Blank Design (UBD), Spiral X Core, and Hi-Power X technologies, strategically positioned carbon materials are used throughout the blank to optimize sensitivity, strength, and balance. Starting at the rear grip and into the reel seat, Shimano introduces Fusion Grip Technology, which features a thin cork grip bonded to a carbon monocoque handle. This hollow carbon structure transmits vibration directly to the angler's hand for enhanced sensitivity. A lightweight CI4+ reel seat creates a direct reel-to-rod connection, further improving feel and control. Built with a full cork handle for added leverage when launching big baits, the Shimano Poison Glorious Swimbait Casting Rods deliver elevated handling, exceptional sensitivity, and premium performance for your favorite swimbait applications.
