The Shimano Expride B Spinning Rod collection features fast-action tapers across a range of powers from light to medium-heavy, ideal for casting and working lures under 3/4 oz. Anglers seeking precision and responsiveness will appreciate Shimano's Hi-Power X blank construction, which utilizes diagonally wrapped carbon tape to enhance strength, minimize twist, and produce crisp, targeted actions. The Carbon Monocoque handle integrates directly into the blank and transmits subtle vibrations more effectively than traditional grips, providing you with greater control during bottom contact presentations, drop shots, or finesse applications.Specifications and Features: Hi-Power X carbon wrap enhances strength and reduces blank twistCarbon Monocoque handle boosts sensitivity with hollow constructionOCI4+ reel seat increases rigidity while lowering overall weightFuji SiC guides promote smooth line management with durabilityBalanced, fast-action blanks ideal for finesse and light power techniquesOne-piece rods with natural cork handles for classic comfort and feel
