Shimano Tranx 300A and Grappler Type J B684 Slow Jig Combo 6ft 8in PE3 2pc

Bigger, better, bolder

The Shimano Tranx 300A and Grappler Type J B684 Slow Jig Combo is specially designed to handle the rigours of modern slow jigging. The Shimano Tranx 300A reel's components ensure superior casting while the new Grappler rod takes comfort and performance to a whole new level.

The Reel
The Shimano Tranx 300A Baitcaster Reel is the next level in saltwater-proofed baitcaster reels. It features the CoreProtect Concept, which means the Tranx range has greatly improved water resistance while still maintaining a "free" feel when winding. This reel is ideally suited to most baitcasting applications, like soft-baiting, light jigging and casting small and medium-sized Shimano stick-baits. The Shimano Tranx baitcaster reels are ergonomic in the hand, pack more than enough drag, are built sold and have set the bar in the field of water resistance.

X-ship
By supporting the pinion gear on both ends with Shimano's S-ARB bearings and integrating a bigger drive gear, this reel has increased gearing efficiency and power. You get a fishing reel with ultra-light handle rotation, needing less effort and power, which results in perfect rotation even under heavy loads.

HAGANE Body
HAGANE Body means this reel has a high rigidity and zero twist. The body stiffness and impact resistance virtually eliminates body flexing. The result transforms the anglers actions directly into cranking power. It's efficiency through strength.

For a baitcaster reel that holds its own in the water, definitely try out the Shimano Tranx 300A Baitcaster Reel!

The Rod
The Shimano Grappler Type J B684 Slow Jig Overhead Rod is 6'8'' long - a specific length designed for the taper of the rod to work its magic on the jig. The sensitive tip on the rod allows for good line tension control to cater to changing fishing conditions. And what's more it features both Spiral X and Hi-Power X blank construction for increased strength and less power loss during jerking and fighting.

Spiral X
Spiral X construction consists of three layers: a blank made of vertical fibres, an inner layer and an outer layer, both comprising 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 torsional rigidity without adding extra weight. This in turn facilitates instant power transmission for precise casting and for fighting fish. Through its exclusive lightweight structure, Shimano's Spiral X construction enhances your "catching power".

Hi-Power X
In Hi-Power X construction, the blank's outermost layer is diagonally wrapped with carbon tape which forms an array of "X" shapes. 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. The flexibility 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.
