Shimano Shore Jigging Rod 25 Colt Sniper SS Long S130

Go further, and with more agility.

The Colt Sniper SS Long is based on the concept of "Go further, and with more agility." Its long length allows for stable, long casts of float lures, a staple of Hokkaido, and long leaders for the increasingly popular bow-shaped lures. The long length also enables new shore jigging strategies, such as tracing long bill minnows all the way to your feet on breakwaters to increase bite rates. The blanks feature a Spiral X basic structure that achieves the optimal balance of lightness and strength in a straight joint design that contributes to hooking and fighting power, achieving thorough weight reduction while increasing strength. To prevent loosening of joints, which is common in long rods, a screw lock joint is used, which increases the joint's fixing strength while also making it easy to remove. By generously incorporating technology developed in higher-end models, this rod achieves a perfect balance between lightness when casting and operating and powerful fighting, creating a new world of shore jigging.
