GAME TYPE SLOW J

A slow jigging rod that has been designed to handle jerking operations as well.

The operability of jerking motions on the Game Type Slow J has been improved to enhance one of the most important traits required in the slow jigging game – the jig action. The bend of the rod is smooth, allowing for loads on the end of the fishing line to translate smoothly to the rod butt and grip area, making it less tiring to fight fish. The strength and bend of this latest Game Type SJ model closely mimics that of a one-piece rod because of the grip joint. Revolving around the fall action centered slow jig style, use all sorts of combination between fast and slow jerks, low and high pitch to control the speed and actions of the jigs. With the Spiral-X Core construction on the rods, the slim and slender blanks are able to withstand high twisting loads and prevent severe power loss to facilitate the jig actions.

FEATURES

Full Holding Seat

The original "Full Holding Seat" is used for the reel seat. The reel seat is designed to provide a comfortable fit and fatigue-free gripping, and can be used in a variety of ways, such as grasping, palming, and wrapping. The lower part of the grip is flattened to improve stability when gripped, supporting high-precision jigging from the hand. Furthermore, the use of CI4+ carbon-reinforced material reduces weight and increases sensitivity.

Lightweight & sensitivity-oriented LKW Guide

Lightweight, highly sensitive double-foot guide with stainless steel foot and SiC guide ring. It also features a short overall length with a sloping design that minimizes line snagging.

TECHNOLOGY

SPIRAL X CORE
HI-POWER X
CI4+
SPIRALXCORE_RD
SPIRAL X CORE

Spiral X Core is Shimano's newest and most advanced blank construction technology. By integrating Spiral X carbon tape construction with Toray Nanoalloy® technology, Spiral X Core constructed blanks benefit from up to 10% more torsional rigidity and up to 15% more compressional rigidity than rods built with Spiral X. Shimano is unique to the market by applying by high-strength carbon tape with this unique and patented Spiral X construction.


HI-POWERX_RD
HI-POWER X

Hi-Power X construction uses diagonally-wrapped carbon tape to form an array of "X" shapes on the rod blank's outermost layer. The width of the tape, its winding angle and the part of the rod being wrapped are fine-tuned according to the target fish species. This manufacturing process allows Shimano to adjust these wraps during construction for precise actions, enhanced overall strength and added twist resistance. In short, Hi-Power X construction delivers sharp and crisp rod control for the angler.


CI4+_RD
CI4+

CI4 is a Shimano original material reinforced with carbon fiber that is lighter and has a higher strength than conventional resin material. CI4+ is an advanced version of the original CI4 material and is 2.5x more rigid than its predecessor. While improving lightness and rigidity, reel bodies, rotors and reel seats built with CI4+ are further reduced in size and weight.
