Designed for situations requiring a lighter tackle approach to get a bite, the fully-redesigned Grappler Type LJ series leverages Shimano's premium rod technologies and a new blank design to deliver smooth, stress-free jigging performance. Grappler Type LJ incorporates Shimano's premium rod technologies — Spiral X and Hi-Power X — to provide enhanced compressional and torsional rigidity for increased catching power without the added weight. The soft tip within the Grappler Type LJ rod series allows anglers to impart action on lighter jigs with greater ease. The Shimano CI4+ reel seat increases rod sensitivity by transmitting more feedback to the angler and boosting in-hand comfort. Casting models within the redesigned Grappler LJ series feature an ergonomic grip with "flat bottom" construction for increased in-hand comfort while jigging. Downsize the tackle to upsize the catch with the all-new Grappler Type LJ.

Hi-Power X

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.

CI4+ Reel Seat

CI4 is a Shimano original material reinforced with carbon fiber that is lighter and has a higher strength than conventional resin material. CI4+ is an advanced version of the original CI4 material and is 2.5x more rigid than its predecessor. The use of CI4+ for the reel seat increases sensitivity and reduces weight while also delivering remarkable rigidity for perfect reel fixation and better rod efficiency.

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 in turn facilitates instant power transmission for precise casting and fish fighting.
