Shimano 8′ Teramar XX SE Spinning Rod, Extra Extra Heavy Power

SHIMANO Teramar XX SE Spinning Rod

The new Teramar XX Southeast (SE) series of rods set a new standard in performance with technique-specific powers, actions and features for fishing the myriad of inshore game fish in the Southeast region of the United States. The Teramar XX SE rods incorporate Shimano’s proprietary Spiral X and Hi-Power X technologies to enhance power transmission through the rod blank for increased casting distance and lifting power as well as reduced blank twist during tough battles.

Featuring classic cork handles and durable Fuji guides, Shimano engineered the Teramar XX SE series for ultimate performance and long-lasting durability with actions specifically designed for anglers in the Southeast tossing soft plastics for redfish or floating crabs for tarpon. Simply put, Shimano’s flagship Teramar XX SE rods are built to be the ultimate inshore rod that’s ready for any challenge anglers will throw at it. 

Features:

• Hi-Power X construction uses diagonally-wrapped carbon tape to form an array of “X” shapes on the rod blank’s outermost layer. 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. This manufacturing process 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 for the angler
• Spiral X – Through its exclusive lightweight structure, Shimano’s patented Spiral X construction enhances catching power for anglers. Spiral X construction consists of three layers: a middle layer of vertical fibers as well as inner and outer layers, 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 compression rigidity and increased torsional rigidity without adding extra weight. This facilitates instant power transmission for precise casting and fish fighting
• CI4+ is an advanced version of the original CI4. This highly technical carbon material maintains 2.5 times more rigidity than CI4. While improving lightness and rigidity, the body and rotor are further reduced in size and weight
