Entice hungry Snapper into smashing your lure
Thinking of putting together the perfect slow jigging rig? The
Shimano Tranx 400A Backbone OH Slow Jig Combo is a great option.
This set comes with a Shimano Tranx 400A Baitcaster reel, which is
ideal for baitcasting applications like soft-baiting, light jigging
and casting small and medium-sized Shimano stickbaits. It features
CoreProtect Concept, X-Ship and Hagane Body, which means this reel
is ergonomic, packs more than enough drag, is solidly built and
sets the bar in the field of water resistance. The reel is paired
with a Shimano Backbone Overhead Slow Jig Rod which is designed with slow
jigging in mind. Its soft tip will help give
your slow jig the best movement possible, enticing Snapper and
other hungry fish.
The Reel
The Shimano Tranx 400A Baitcaster Reel is the next
level in saltwater-proof baitcaster reels. It features the
CoreProtect Concept, which means the Tranx range has greatly
improved water resistance while still maintaining a “free” feel
when winding. This reel is ideally suited to most baitcasting
applications, like soft-baiting, light jigging and casting small
and medium-sized Shimano stick-baits. The Shimano Tranx baitcaster
reels are ergonomic in the hand, pack more than enough drag, are
built sold and have set the bar in the field of water
resistance.
X-ship
By supporting the pinion gear on both ends with Shimano’s S-ARB
bearings and integrating a bigger drive gear, this reel has
increased gearing efficiency and power. You get a fishing reel with
ultra-light handle rotation, needing less effort and power, which
results in perfect rotation even under heavy loads.
HAGANE Body
HAGANE Body means this reel has a high rigidity and zero twist. The
body stiffness and impact resistance virtually eliminates body
flexing. The result transforms the anglers actions directly into
cranking power. It’s efficiency through strength.
For a baitcaster reel that holds its own in the water, definitely
try out the Shimano Tranx 400A Baitcaster
Reel!
The Rod
The favourite Backbone series of rods just got an overhaul. The new
Shimano Backbone Overhead Slow Jig Rod is now
stronger than ever, with a higher quality blank, good quality
componentry and a new slick design that is bound to please.
Graphite Blank
Utilising high quality graphite sheets rolled on custom designed
mandrels, a sensitive yet extremely lightweight performance fishing
blank is created.
Graphite Composite
Rod blanks combining both graphite and fibreglass materials in a
particular manner can create a blank with characteristics that are
best of both worlds, making a rod that has fibreglass robustness
with the power of graphite.
