The Next Generation of Spin Jigging Performance

Engineered to conquer the most powerful ocean predators, the Shimano Grappler Type J S566 Spin Jig Rod marks a significant advancement in the acclaimed offshore jigging series. It integrates the formidable strength of both Spiral X and Hi-Power X blank technologies, proven in the world's most demanding saltwater conditions. This construction drastically improves the rod's resistance to twisting and maximizes power transfer during intense fights. Its versatile action is designed to adapt seamlessly to various jigging techniques, providing an unparalleled fishing experience defined by raw power, immediate response, and absolute control.

Spiral X: Uncompromising Torsional Stability
At the heart of the rod, Spiral X technology utilizes a three-layer architecture. A core of vertical fibers is reinforced by inner and outer layers of carbon tape, each spirally wound in opposing directions. This advanced method replaces conventional horizontal sheets, achieving a remarkable increase in torsional rigidity without a weight increase. The outcome is instantaneous power transmission from your hands to the fish, offering a critical advantage for precise jig manipulation and controlling powerful runs.

Hi-Power X: Precision-Engineered for Response
The Hi-Power X system fortifies the blank's exterior with a diagonal carbon tape wrap, forming a distinct "X" pattern across its surface. Shimano customizes this process by fine-tuning the tape's width, winding angle, and placement to match the target species. This allows for a precisely calibrated rod action, a significant boost in overall durability, and superior resistance to twisting forces. In essence, Hi-Power X provides the sharp, responsive feedback necessary for complete command in every situation.
