Rapala Shadow Blade 182cm Spinning Rod 3.5-14g

A 182cm spinning rod for light lure work, with a tapered high-modulus carbon blank that loads quickly and recovers fast. At 102g it is light enough to fish all day with small crankbaits, jigs and soft plastics on the 3.5-14g range.

The build is where the money has gone. Fuji 'O' Concept guides run the line cleanly off a fixed spool without wrapping the tip, the Fuji VSS reel seat locks a reel down solidly, and an aluminium blank connector puts the blank in direct contact with your hand so you feel a lure ticking bottom rather than guessing at it.
