Solidly built and packed with muscle where it counts
The Shimano Torium 20PG and Grappler Type J B566 Jigging
Combo is one tough combo that strikes the perfect balance
between quality and value. It comes with the heavy-duty Grappler
Type J B566 Overhead Jigging Rod that’s loaded with power. Team it
up with the uber-smooth and feature-packed Shimano Torium 20PG
overhead reel and you get a combination that will land you your
next big catch.
The Reel
The lightweight Shimano Torium 20PG Overhead Reel
is a solidly-built star-drag saltwater reel perfect for live bait
or bottom-fishing applications. It’s packed with features like
Super Stopper, Cross Carbon Drag, Anti-Rust Bearings, High
Efficiency Gearing and Hagane Body. When it comes to being packed
with all the right stuff, the Torium has it where it counts.
Hagane Body
The Hagane Body is produced from high rigidity aluminium or
magnesium. This creates stiffness and impact resistance, while at
the same time eliminating flexing of the body. The result is a rock
solid housing and support for the moving intrernal gearing and
creates greater efficiency throughout the reel.
S-ARB
Shimano S-ARB bearings are high-corrosion-resistant ARB ball
bearings with an extra shield for improved protection against sand,
salt or dust.
Super Free Spool
The Super Free bearing-supported pinion gear system (SF) was
designed to eliminate friction on the spool shaft during the cast.
In standard baitcasting reels, when the clutch bar is pressed down,
the pinion gear is freed and can actually drag on the spool shaft,
creating friction and limiting the length of the cast. With SF, the
pinion gear is supported by a ball bearing, and when the clutch is
disengaged the pinion gear and the spool shaft are kept in precise
alignment. This creates zero friction on the spool shaft for
increase freespool.
Cross Carbon Drag
This carbon drag material provides a wider range of drag settings,
along with the smoothes Shimano drag performance ever.
S Compact Body
This is a compact body designed to reduce weight, and allow for
better grip and leverage while fighting fish.
The Rod
The Shimano Grappler Type J B566 Overhead Jigging
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 stable during fish fights, the Shimano Grappler Type J
B566 Overhead Rod is equipped with double-footed MN guides
and rubber 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!
H-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.
