Brand New Shimano 22 Bantam 168ML+-G/2 Baitcasting Rod for Bass

168ML+-G/2

HARD BAIT This two-piece rod features a one-and-a-half design aimed at enhancing hooking power. The joint is strategically placed near the belly to generate significant power during the hooking phase. By increasing the diameter of the connection point, it creates a sharp hooking position while preserving the delicate action of the tip. This design minimizes missed bites and increases catch rates. The rod has been updated to a glass composite construction, making it ideal for actively targeting bites with small to medium-sized hard baits. It excels in techniques like cover cranking with shallow to mid-diving lures, as well as using mid-sized vibrations and topwater plugs. The one-and-a-half design balances the essential qualities of glass composite materials: the ability to maintain the natural action of the lure and the performance needed to automatically hook short bites. The result is a rod with a shorter tip that effectively enhances performance in various fishing situations.
