Shimano Stradic CI4+ 4000 FB-XG And Grappler Type J S631 Light Jig Spin Combo 6ft 3in PE1.5 2pc

A lightweight combo that’s heavy on performance

If you’re looking for a jigging combo that’s lightweight yet
durable, then the Shimano Stradic CI4+ 4000 FB-XG and
Grappler Type J S631 Light Jig Spin Combo is the perfect
pair for you. The reel is compact and feature-packed, and perfectly
matches the new Grappler rod’s light and effortless lifting power,
making it an ideal combo to use for all-day fishing.

The Reel
The Shimano Stradic has been a solid performer in the New Zealand
market for many years now and this model upgrade is no different.
Shimano’s engineers have done it again by creating a more
lightweight, compact yet powerful mid-priced spinning reel.

The new Shimano Stradic CI4+ 4000 FB-XG Spinning
Reel features the newly-developed Magnumlite Rotor, giving
a lighter feel – making this reel simply a delight to use, with
better balance in the hand. It also features Shimano’s X-Ship
technology, which not only makes the fishing experience much more
enjoyable with ultra-smooth retrieves, but also gives you more
grunt when cranking in those larger saltwater species.

Every part has been designed to improve your experience on the
water. The sleek G-Free body provides a better weight balance to
reduce fatigue. Plus, the presence of Coreprotect on the roller
clutch, the drag, the body and the line roller, indicate that this
reel is going to be perfectly at home in the world’s harshest
environment — saltwater. Whether you’re casting light Rapala lures
to Trout, softbaiting the wash or micro-jigging for Snapper, the
Shimano Stradic CI4+ 4000 FB-XG Spinning Reel eats
it up!

Magnumlite Rotor
The newly-developed Magnumlite Rotor is made out of new CI4
material that’s lighter and stronger than the 1st generation CI4 –
providing you with effortless handle rotation by reducing the
weight dramatically.

Hagane Gear
The new Shimano Stradic CI4+ 4000 FB-XG Spinning
Reel is enhanced by its Hagane Gears, complementing the G
Free Body design for better all-around performance. With amazing
strength and durability, the Hagane gear is at the very heart of
this reel – giving long-lasting smoothness and feel. Its entire
surface is calculated in minute detail by 3D and formed by
Shimano’s cold forging technology.

X-Ship
Together with the Hagane cold-forged drive gear, Shimano combined
X-Ship technology which results in a smooth, powerful and durable
reel. By supporting the pinion gear on both ends with bearings, the
pinion gear maintains precise alignment with the drive gear. This
means that the gears will stay in position under the heaviest
loads. The added benefit is that friction between the spool shaft
and gear are eliminated. This will enhance the casting performance
of the reel with lighter lures, and allow for longer casts.

The Rod
The Shimano Grappler Type J S631 Light Jig Spinning
Rod features awesome newly designed blanks packed with
high-end features like Spiral X and Hi-Power X, both of which are
very rare for this price range. In addition to being light, strong
and unwavering during fish fights, the Shimano Grappler
Type J S631 Light Jig Spinning Rod is equipped with
double-footed MN guides and metal gimbals. This makes it an
excellent rod for targeting big game fish.

Spiral X
Spiral X Construction consists of 3 layers – a blank made of
vertical fibres, an inner layer, and an outer layer, both comprised
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 fighting fish.
Through its exclusive lightweight structure, Shimano’s Spiral X
construction will definitely enhance 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.
