The enormously popular Zodias is part of the exclusive SHIMANO JDM series and features a renewed design. The current series is renowned for its versatility and power, and now a new feature has been added: sensitivity. The Carbon Monocoque grip (known from Poison Adrena) is a significant enhancement, making the new generation rods lighter and more sensitive!The fast and extra-fast Zodias rods were originally developed and designed in Japan but are almost perfectly suited for fishing European species such as pike, perch, and zander. The sleekly finished Zodias is equipped with an exclusive Monocoque handle. This improves sensitivity and responsiveness, allowing every vibration and movement to be instantly transmitted to your hand. When you hook a fish, you can feel the powerful characteristics of the blank that bends very evenly.The Zodias benefits from SHIMANO's Hi-Power X blank technology for sensitivity and technical performance. This results in casting accuracy and distance, as well as reduced blank twist for better control during fishing. Sensitivity is greatly enhanced by the addition of the Carbon Monocoque grip and the specially designed Ci4+ reel seat. These features provide remarkable feedback while fishing. Top-quality Fuji guides further contribute to the quality of this high-end series. There are 7 Spinning and 6 Casting models for various techniques and applications. From the lightest Ultra Light models ideal for delicate fishing to the Heavy models designed for large soft baits, hard baits, and spinners. In addition, there are 6 Super Sensitive models for ultra finesse fishing. The ULS2 model and the Super Sensitive models feature a TAFTEC ALPHA tip for the ultimate sensitivity in finesse fishing.
