Shimano fishing Casting rod Shimano Expride 17

This new range of casting rods from Shimano is extremely versatile for predator fishing. Their fast action is perfect for modern fishing techniques. They'll help you flush out pike, perch and pike-perch with both crankbaits and soft lures.

TheExpride is also extremely sensitive and its nerve makes it easier to strike and gives better control during the fight. The biggest change for this range is the blank, which is made from a higher modulus carbon than previous models, improving the action, balance and weight of the rod. The reel seat has also been modified for a better grip and a more attractive design.
