Shimano Ocea Plugger Full Throttle Spin Rod

The Ocea Plugger Full Throttle is a saltwater casting series designed to deliver the ultimate in casting performance and fish fighting power. Available across a range of PE ratings from 4-8 and based on a High Power/Spiral X Graphite blank with the ability to withstand a 60 degree fighting angle, they are light rods, but with uncompromised strength. Other features include the Fuji RVSG SiC guides and DPS reel seats.

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 by the angler.

Spiral X construction consists of three layers: a blank made of vertical fibers, an inner layer, and an outer layer 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 fiber sheet, Spiral X achieves enhanced torsional rigidity without adding extra weight. This in turn facilitates instant power transmission for precise casting and fighting fish. Through its exclusive lightweight structure, Shimano’s Spiral X construction enhances anglers’ “catching power.”

SHIMANO CI4+ REEL SEAT - In addition to using high-end Fuji reel seats, Shimano has designed a number of models in-house. These Shimano engineered models make it possible to use specialised reel seats for different types of rods. The usage of the highly technical material CI4+ creates an ultra light reel seat.
