The new range ofShimano Yasei BB AX Pike fishing rods is available in both spinning and casting models. Specially developed for large pike. Part of the renowned Yasei family of rods and offering exceptional value for money, this range is versatile enough to cast a wide range of baits whilst maintaining the power needed to tackle the biggest pike without being overpowered. As soon as you pick up theYasei BB AX Pike, you can't help but notice the casting potential offered by the fast action rods. With more power at the bottom, these impressively responsive rods allow you to cover a lot of water, whether you're fishing from the bank or a boat. Pair the spinning models with a Shimano 4000 or 5000 reel for a powerful, balanced combination. Whether you prefer to use baitcasting reels or small overhead reels, casting models offer all the power you need to tackle the challenge of the biggest pike, in the biggest waters. AllYasei BB AX Pike models have a fast-actionFull Carbon blank constructed withHPC (High Pressure Carbon) and exclusiveDiaflash technology. This increases power at the bottom of the rod and reduces blank twist during casting, resulting in longer, more accurate casts. The inclusion of theDiaflash also improves combat when subjected to extreme pressure, as it helps the rod apply more direct and linear pressure from the butt to the tip. To further increase long distance casting and overall performance, the rod is equipped with the latest generationFuji Fazlite K-type guides. They are lightweight but also very durable and help prevent any problems at the start of a powerful cast. In keeping with the high quality design, aFuji reel seat is fitted to the custom designed split gripEVA handle, giving this range a modern and attractive look that matches its brilliant fishing performance.
