Your ultimate jigging advantage
The Shimano Talica 20A 2-Speed Game Type J Tuna Jigging Combo is specially matched for the angler who means business when it comes to New Zealand's toughest offshore game fish. This powerhouse combo unites Shimano's flagship Talica II reel with the heavy-duty Shimano Game Type J rod, delivering uncompromising strength and surgical precision to conquer even the most gruelling battles. Every component works in harmony to transform your actions directly into cranking power and lifting force, giving you the edge when it matters most.
The Reel
The all-new Shimano Talica II 20A 2-Speed Lever Drag Game Reel raises the bar even further as Shimano’s flagship reel with ultra-smooth reeling and powerful drag performance to conquer long, grueling battles with trophy game fish. The addition of Shimano's innovative Infinity Drive technology leverages a new drag design to increase drag force while reducing side-load pressure to produce up to 30% lighter rotation during tough battles and high-drag situations.
This new generation of Talica now features X-Protect technology to boast high-level water resistance in vital areas to improve durability without sacrificing a light gear feel. The included Light-Line Drag Cam provides added versatility with a lower drag curve for anglers fishing monofilament or lighter fluorocarbon leaders. The HAGANE Body is made of highly-rigid aluminum to reduce the reel's overall weight while eliminating reel body flex, warp, and distortion to allow for smooth reeling with minimal power loss during challenging battles.
The Rod
The Shimano Game Type J B538 Overhead Jigging Rod is popular among jig fishing enthusiasts. This 1 piece rod is rated for use with a PE8 braid and features a high carbon blank which is incredibly light yet strong. The blank is made with a Spiral X and high power inner and outer weave, making it robust and lightweight. The rod is also fitted with Fuji series SIC guides on stainless frames, a Fuji reel seat and custom-shaped EVA grips. Check out and take the Shimano Game Type J B538 Overhead Jigging Rod next time you go jigging.
