Shimano Extraction 5ft 5in 2 Piece PE8 Overhead Jig Rod

COMPACT POWER FOR SERIOUS JIGGING

Built for aggressive jigging and relentless fights, the Shimano Extraction Overhead Jig Rod delivers the perfect balance of strength, sensitivity, and control. Designed for offshore anglers targeting robust species, this rod is engineered to handle high-drag pressure and heavy setups with ease.

Purpose-built for jigging, casting, and topwater fishing. At its core is Shimano’s robust T45 blank technology, which wraps carbon tape at a 45-degree angle around standard carbon sheets during construction. This creates a blank with a light, sensitive tip for precise lure control and reduced fatigue, transitioning into a powerful lower section for high drag settings and maximum lifting power. Equipped with premium Fuji SiC guides, Fuji graphite reel seats, and custom components, the 23 Extraction is ready to tackle your next offshore adventure.
