Bigger, better, bolder
The Shimano Tranx 300A and Grappler Type J B684 Slow Jig
Combo is specially designed to handle the rigours of
modern slow jigging. The Shimano Tranx 300A reel’s components
ensure superior casting while the new Grappler rod takes comfort
and performance to a whole new level.
The Reel
The Shimano Tranx 300A Baitcaster Reel is the next
level in saltwater-proofed baitcaster reels. It features the
CoreProtect Concept, which means the Tranx range has greatly
improved water resistance while still maintaining a “free” feel
when winding. This reel is ideally suited to most baitcasting
applications, like soft-baiting, light jigging and casting small
and medium-sized Shimano stick-baits. The Shimano Tranx baitcaster
reels are ergonomic in the hand, pack more than enough drag, are
built sold and have set the bar in the field of water
resistance.
X-ship
By supporting the pinion gear on both ends with Shimano’s S-ARB
bearings and integrating a bigger drive gear, this reel has
increased gearing efficiency and power. You get a fishing reel with
ultra-light handle rotation, needing less effort and power, which
results in perfect rotation even under heavy loads.
HAGANE Body
HAGANE Body means this reel has a high rigidity and zero twist. The
body stiffness and impact resistance virtually eliminates body
flexing. The result transforms the anglers actions directly into
cranking power. It’s efficiency through strength.
For a baitcaster reel that holds its own in the water, definitely
try out the Shimano Tranx 300A Baitcaster
Reel!
The Rod
The Shimano Grappler Type J B684 Slow Jig Overhead
Rod is 6’8” long – a specific length designed for the
taper of the rod to work its magic on the jig. The sensitive tip on
the rod allows for good line tension control to cater to changing
fishing conditions. And what’s more it features both Spiral X and
Hi-Power X blank construction for increased strength and less power
loss during jerking and fighting.
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.
