The Shimano Salty Advance Sea Bass is a series of spinning rods developed for long range bass fishing and is part of Shimano's exclusive JDM series. Offering excellent value for money, this mid-range range is built on Full Carbon blanks and has a medium-fast action which ensures excellent casting performance. To effectively fish for bass it is important that your rods are capable of casting at the hunting fish, which are often found at a long distance, especially when fishing from a shallow beach. This is where the Salty Advance Sea Bass really shines. The medium-fast action has enough flex to work with smaller lures, between 6 and 8 grams, whilst having the power and top speed to cast 30-40 gram lures great distances. And if impressive casting performance isn't enough for you, wait until you see the affordability of this mid-priced Shimano JDM classic. It is a winner in all areas. The eye-catching blank of the Salty Advance Sea Bass is made from high quality Full Carbon, which is rarely found in rods of this price. The result is a perfectly balanced combination of casting power and tip sensitivity. Available in 3 models, the 2.74m (9') 6-32g version offers excellent all-round versatility, while the longer 2.90m (9' 6") versions are real machines casting weights and are available in weights of 6-32g and 8-45g.To enhance the casting performance of the Salty Advance Sea Bass, the lightweight Fuji Alconite K-type stainless steel guides, with SiC leader, ensure line management smooth and minimize casting problems.To complete the eye-catching blank, an exclusive Shimano plate is fitted to the modern, ergonomic EVA split grip handle.
