Conquer the deep with effortless power
The Shimano Ocea Jigger 1500 HG 25 Grappler Type SJ OH Slow Jig Combo is seriously dialled in for New Zealand's demanding slow-pitch jigging scene. This premium pairing puts an incredible advantage in your hands, ensuring maximum jig performance and the brute strength needed to tackle Kingfish, Hapuku and other hard-fighting species from the depths. Get ready to experience a new level of control and durability.
The Reel
The Shimano Ocea Jigger 1500 HG Jigging Reel just got an overhaul. The flagship of Shimano's saltwater jigging reels now comes with new exciting features like Infinity Drive and Micro Module Gear, which reduces 60% of the reeling resistance compared to the old model. The new handle is especially designed to provide a firm grip and the ability to give extra power without losing grip.
The combination of Hagane body and S-compact body results in an immensely strong and though lightweight jigging reel. The 8 shielded A-RB ball bearings and X-Protect provides smooth operation plus saltwater protection. The HG version with a gear ratio of 6:4.1 is ideal for jigging at high tempo and for active bite activity. Plus, with a drag of 7.5kg, fighting the biggest fish is not a problem anymore.
MicroModule
The addition of the MicroModule gear technology to the worm shaft reduces oscillation vibration. This is an incredible breakthrough in design and delivers an outstanding level smoothness without sacrificing strength or durability.
HAGANE Body
HAGANE Body means this reel has a high rigidity and zero twist. The body stiffness and impact resistance virtually eliminate body flexing. The result transforms your actions directly into cranking power. It's efficiency through strength.
X-Protect
By combining our water repellent coating and our specially designed, water channelling labyrinth construction, X-Protect provides high-level water resistance without sacrificing light gear and rotor rotation.
E.I. Anti-Corrosion Surface Treatment
After the anodisation process is finished, a second layer of surface treatment is added. This treatment is forced into the remaining surface impurities. This gives salt no hideout and also results in an extremely smooth-to-the-touch finish. A reel with E.I. treatment has more than double the corrosion resistance of a standard anodised reel.
Shielded Anti-Reverse Bearings
These bearings have been through the same process as the A-RB bearings, but feature shields on both sides of the bearings that reduce the possibility of salt or sand inhibiting the bearings' rotation.
Super Free
The Super Free bearing-supported pinion gear system (SF) was designed to eliminate friction on the spool shaft during the cast. In standard baitcasting reels, when the clutch bar is pressed down, the pinion gear is freed and can actually drag on the spool shaft, creating friction and limiting the length of the cast. With SF, the pinion gear is supported by a ball bearing and when the clutch is disengaged the pinion hear and spool shaft are kept in precise alignment. The result is zero friction on the spool shaft for increased freespool.
The Rod
Effective slow-pitch jigging is all about maximising lure action — on both the lift and the drop. This is where the Shimano 25 Grappler Type SJ B663 Slow Jig OH Rod really shine. Its progressive taper and unique blank design make jig manipulation a breeze. The entire rod flexes smoothly on the upstroke before the slightly stiffer tip rebounds to impart a seductive dart, lift and flutter to the dancing jig. Fish simply can't resist the magic in these wands! Combined with ergonomic grips that maximise angler comfort and a high-quality reel seat that lock up tight to eliminate any reel flex, the Grappler Type SJ is set to revolutionise the increasingly popular style of fishing.
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 fibres 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 fibre 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.
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+
CI4 is a Shimano original material reinforced with carbon fibre 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. While improving lightness and rigidity, reel bodies, rotors and reel seats built with CI4+ are further reduced in size and weight.
