Shimano STC AX Travel Spinning Rod

Description

The Shimano STC AX Travel Spinning Rod is part of a seven-strong range of 4 and 5-piece rods designed for anglers who need a compact, portable setup without compromising on performance. Available in lengths of 2.40m and 2.70m, with casting weights from 10-30g up to 50-100g, the range covers most traditional lure fishing methods in both fresh and salt water. Each rod packs down to a transport length of 65cm or under and comes with a profiled protective hardcase for convenient made-up transport. Once assembled, the multiple sections are barely noticeable thanks to seamless design and quality craftsmanship. The fast action, achieved through Full Carbon plus Nanosheet construction, delivers strong casting and fish-playing performance while keeping the rod light and well balanced in the hand, even over long sessions. The lightest 2.40m model suits smaller lures such as small and medium crankbaits or soft plastics, ideal for perch, zander and smaller saltwater species. At the other end, the powerful fast action 2.70m model handles 50-100g lures, making it a strong choice for large open water pike fishing or inshore lure work with big crankbaits and glide baits. All models feature an abbreviated cork handle with a custom Shimano VVS reel seat and Shimano Hardlite guides. - Reel Seat - Shimano VSS - Type - Spinning - Grip Type - Split Grip - Grip Material - Cork - Guide Type - Shimano Hardlite - Guide Frame Material - Stainless Steel - Reel Fixing Method - Spinning - Blank Material and Construction - Full Carbon + Nanosheet
