Shimano therefore believed that the times demanded a rod that would allow anglers to enjoy the feel of bamboo fishing with ease, while taking advantage of the "lightness" characteristic of carbon material. That is the Tokusaku Irohana, with its "clean and soft action". The cleanliness is expressed in the high operability that can be felt in every fishing motion, and because it is slender, flexible, and has the characteristic of not delaying the hookset, it is possible to catch many fish with ease without worrying about the leader breaking, especially when fishing close to shore. Furthermore, while it has a fun, soft action that allows you to bend the rod nicely, the Spiral X Core and Riki-bushi technology result in a rod that allows you to pull while holding on, even though it is slender. Even when dealing with large crucian carp, it doesn't get tossed around in your hands and slides smoothly into the landing net. TKM-01-17-01 SRS-254969363339102 12
