Description  The Cardiff AX is the most advanced range of trout areas in Shimano's range. Built using the finest, most advanced blends of carbon, these superb rods offer sublime performance across the range and take trout rods to a new dimension of excellence. The Cardiff AX is a rod for serious trout anglers. If you appreciate the little intricacies that add up to more than the sum of its parts, then the Cardiff AX is for you. You're sure to appreciate the stunning, ultra-smooth parabolic action, with its near-elastic properties of forgiveness. And you'll be amazed at how a rod this sensitive and light can cast your lures with laser-like accuracy. But it's the feeling you get when a trout takes your bait that is most defining, as the Softube Top technology gives you an almost imperceptible, but very real amount of extra time to set the hook before the pressure even the most on their wary trout warns. The ultra-lightweight blanks of the Cardiff AX are made from a mix of Spiral X and Hi-Power X carbon. These advanced carbon technologies work together to reduce rotational twist when the rod is bent during casting or fishing, resulting in greater accuracy and a more parabolic fighting curve. The addition of Shimano's Softube Top increases sensitivity without adding extra weight, resulting in better balance and an improved overall feeling of lightness. As expected from a rod of such quality, the fittings are of the highest order, with lightweight Fuji Titanium and stainless steel SiC K-type guides, an exclusive Shimano Ci4+ reelseat to complement the sleek blanks and the finest quality cork handles.

When worked with different twitch techniques it produces a darting action that resembles a wounded or nervous fish. Available in three options - Sinking (S), Suspending (SP) and Deep Running Suspending (D-SP), the Yasei Trigger Twitch range offers excellent versatility.If you are an angler who likes to really work your lures you are going to be instantly drawn to the Yasei Trigger Twitch. This versatile twitch bait really comes into its own when fishing in clear water, especially in shallow areas around fish-holding features. Depending on which option you select, you can work these lures from just under the surface down to 3m, giving you fantastic water coverage. With excellent balance and specially tuned front lips you can use a wide range of twitch techniques from fast to slow, with short or long pauses. Each twitch fires the lures into action with a nervous darting action that imitates a wounded or confused bait fish, whilst the pause enables the lure to retain its balance and is often the time when predators will hit the lure with extreme speed and force.

Description  The Sephia BB C3000S is a reel which is specifically developed for EGI fishing. It has the ideal gear ratio and retrieve speed to present the EGI lure in the ideal way.

Description  The new Tribal TX Ultra certainly lives up to its 'grip it and rip it' billing. Unparalleled casting performance is created by the combination of three exclusive SHIMANO carbon technologies: Spiral X Core for torsional rigidity, Hi-Power X for blank twist reduction and a futuristic Carbon Monocoque handle for faster power transfer and improved feel when fish-playing. These technologies also reduce the overall weight of the rod, making it the lightest carp rod in the TX range which results in increase tip speed when used with maximum casting force. Casts in excess of 220 yards have been achieved using the 13' INT model with a 4.5oz (128g) lead. Not only is the TX Ultra longer casting, it is also unnervingly accurate and remarkably forgiving when playing fish, especially in the 3.0lb and 3.25lb test curves. Combine the TX Ultra with any Shimano Slow or Super Slow Oscillation Big Pit and you have a world class carp combination that will be the envy of everyone. The 'Intensity' model is designed for extreme casting distances. Spiral XSpiral X construction consists of three layers: a blank made of vertical fibers, 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 fiber 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 enhances anglers’ “catching power.” Hi-Power XIn 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 by the angler. Full Carbon Monocoque100% carbon hollow shaped reargrip with one piece blank through for an amplified sensitivity.
