Shimano Grappler Type C S80M Topwater Spin Rod 8ft PE5 2pc

Designed for fish-fighting power!

The Shimano Grappler Type C S80M Topwater Spin Rod focuses on effortless power and smooth casts. It features both Spiral X and Hi-Power X blank construction for increased strength and less power loss during jerking and fighting. Plus it uses double-footed MN guides for higher strength and rigidity. Perfect for fishing with stickbaits and popper lures.

Spiral X
Spiral X construction consists of three layers: a blank made of vertical fibres, an inner layer and an outer layer, both comprising of carbon tape that tightly winds the blank diagonally in opposite directions. By using this carbon tape in place of a conventional horizontal fibre sheet, Spiral X achieves enhanced torsional rigidity without adding extra weight. This in turn facilitates instant power transmission for precise casting and for fighting fish. Through its exclusive lightweight structure, Shimano’s Spiral X construction enhances your “catching power”.

Hi-Power X
In Hi-Power X construction, the blank’s outermost layer is diagonally wrapped with carbon tape which forms an array of “X” shapes. 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. The flexibility 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.
