Product details

The very popular Zodias is part of the exclusive Shimano JDM range and combines advanced design, fast actions, and cutting-edge carbon technology with an affordable mid-range price. This visually impressive range opens up a wealth of possibilities for the serious lure angler. Designed and developed in Japan for black bass fishing, you'll instantly recognize that the Zodias is suited for fishing light to medium European predators. Light in the hand and wonderfully balanced, the inclusion of Shimano's exclusive Monocoque handle enhances feel and responsiveness, transmitting every stroke and movement directly into your hand. Yet when you do hook a fish, the hidden power comes into its own, offering control and maneuverability in equal measure. Shimano's Hi-Power X technology is at the heart of Zodias rods and increases energy transfer through the rod for increased accuracy and casting distance, as well as reduced blank twist for better control when fighting. The inclusion of a Carbon Monocoque rear handle and a custom-designed CI4+ reel seat increases sensitivity, offering outstanding feedback during use. High-quality Fuji rings further enhance the quality of this high-performance range. The ULS2 model features a TAFTEC ALPHA carbon tip for extreme sensitivity. From the lightest Ultra Light Spinning models, perfect for drop shot and light lure fishing, to the casting intense action models designed for heavy shads, crankbaits, and spinner baits, there are 7 spinning and 6 casting models to cover all your fishing activities.

  • Fast and extra-fast actions tailored to each model
  • High modulus carbon blanks with Hi-Power X technology
  • Carbon monocoque rear handle and custom-designed CI4+ reel seats
  • Fuji Alconite rings with Fuji SiC tip rings on all models
  • TAFTEC ALPHA solid tip on spinning ULS2 models
  • Quality fabric/zippered carry bag
  • Medium fast action for clean fighting action in lighter models.
