Shimano Aerocast Rod
A revolutionary concept in rod construction - the Oval Blank design reduces the resistance of the blank on the cast, allowing it to cut through the air and power leads to the horizon. The XT200 plus Biofibre blank has a spigot joint, Fuji MN Alconite double leg rings and a Shimano low diameter reel seat, with the split handle veneered with Japanese soft touch non slip rubber. A woven carbon rear grip with matching line clip blends perfectly with the subtle black whippings and gun metal grey tippets.
The future's not orange...it's oval!
Oval Blank
The standard overhead casting position places the blank in power mode (the stiffer dynamic being ideal for long range casting), and the unique oval blank design allows the rod to slice through the air. Whilst fish can also be played on the horizontal, it is the rods mammoth casting potential that truly sets it apart.
Available in 2.5lb (Casts up to 80g), 2.75lb (Casts up to 100g), or 3.0lb (Casts up to 125g) test curves. All models 12ft long. All long range, double leg models.
