Product Description
HIGH PERFORMANCE FOR EVERY ANGLER
The Shimano Shadow X Spin Rod is designed to offer excellent casting performance and durability across a wide range of fishing conditions. Built with high-quality carbon blanks, this rod delivers impressive strength, sensitivity, and casting distance, making it ideal for targeting various species in freshwater and saltwater environments.
The third generation of the Shadow X has been further refined for 2024, now specifically optimised for bait fishing and related techniques. Built with the latest blank technology and thoughtfully chosen components, the 24 Shadow X offers anglers an exceptional balance of price and performance. The innovative T45 blank is at its core, constructed by wrapping graphite tape at a 45-degree angle and reinforcing it with two layers of graphite rolled in opposing directions. This creates a blank with a lightweight, sensitive tip for excellent bite detection and effective casting of unweighted baits, paired with a strong, durable lower section for battling large fish in harsh conditions. Designed for reliable performance, the 24 Shadow X straylining and bottom-fishing rods feature Fuji K frame tangle-free 'O' guides, a Fuji graphite reel seat, high-density EVA grips, and a folding hook keeper.
