Shimano 20 Nessa Xtune Shore Jigging Rod

A high-spec model from the Shimano surf rod series that balances lightness and strength at a high level. It features high versatility to handle everything from small minnows to heavy weight jigs with one rod. Built to pursue a wide range of responsiveness which is a big advantage in surf casting applications where you can not carry multiple rods and serves a “one to fit many” theory. 

By installing Shimano’s Spiral X Core and High Power X technology in the blanks, it is possible to suppress twisting during casting and fighting and fully demonstrate the original performance of blanks. Even if you fight with an unexpected larger sized fish, the rod will provide a controlled fight with superior performance. In addition, by installing a carbon monocoque grip, Shimano have achieved significant weight reduction and increased sensitivity to detect the smallest of bites.

With the tenacity and strength gained by generously introducing Shimano’s latest technology, a high-performance surf rod that gives anglers a sense of security was born. 

Ideal for anglers fishing from the harbour, rock, beaches and rock walls with distance, sensitivity and responsiveness in mind. Target species include flathead, tailor, salmon, bonito, kingfish, jewfish and snapper.
