Superior strength and reliability
The Shimano Torium 16PG Backbone OH Jigging Combo is perfect for saltwater anglers who want a heavy-duty rod and reel combo. The new and improved Backbone Overhead Jigging Rod complements the ultra strong and smooth Torium reel. Perfect for the demanding fisho who needs a jigging combo that can keep up!
The Reel
The lightweight Shimano Torium 16PG Overhead Reel is a solidly-built star-drag saltwater reel perfect for live bait or bottom-fishing applications. It's packed with features like Super Stopper, Cross Carbon Drag, Anti Rust Bearings and High Efficiency Gearing.
Hagane Body
The incorporation of Hagane Body provides this reel with a rigid yet highly durable outer shell that is free from body flexing, this transforms the angler's actions directly into cranking power when under load.
A-RB
These stainless steel ball bearings are specially treated to drastically increase the corrosion resistance of the bearing. These bearings will last at least 10 times longer than standard stainless steel ball bearings in high salinity environments.
Super Stopper
Super Stopper anti-reverse uses a one-way stainless steel roller bearing that eliminates back-play. This provides the angler with instant hook-setting power.
CF Aluminium Cold Forged Spool
These spools provide increased strength and durability over diecast aluminium or graphite spools.
High Efficiency Gearing
HEG consists of not only the gears, but also the frame, setplate, and handle-side sideplate. FirstShimano increased the size of the drive gear and the pinion gear to offer increased leverage and power. By using a one-piece frame that incorporates the setplate and adding a one-piece stamped sideplate, it eliminates the flex in the drive train that causes gears to bind under pressure.
The Rod
The favourite Backbone series of rods just got an overhaul. The Shimano Backbone Overhead Jigging Rod is now stronger than ever, with a higher quality blank, good quality componentry and a new slick design that is bound to please.
