Shimano 24 Poison Adrena Spinning Rod

Description

The Shimano 24 Poison Adrena 266L2 is a 6'6" light spinning rod built for ultra-technical finesse lure fishing. It sits within the 2024 Poison Adrena range as a short-range, high-accuracy option, pairing a Spiral X Core blank with a Full Carbon Monocoque handle to keep the angler closely connected to the lure. Whether you are shaking a small dropshot rig, twitching a minnow or working a light jig head, the blank and handle combine to transmit what the lure is doing. The 2-piece centre-cut design also makes it a practical choice for the mobile angler. - Model Code: 24PADRN266L2 - Length: 6'6" (1.98m) - Casting Weight: 3-10g - Sections: 2-Piece (Center Cut) - Blank Material: Spiral X Core and High Modulus Carbon - Handle Type: New 2024 Full Carbon Monocoque (Ergonomic) - Reel Seat: Perfection Reel Seat CI4+ - Guide Type: Premium X-Guides and Fuji Titanium SiC - Transport Length: Approx. 102cm - Action: Fast (Finesse Action) - Spiral X Core and UBD: The core of the 266L2 is the Spiral X Core blank, which uses high-strength carbon tape to virtually eliminate blank twist. Combined with Ultimate Blank Design (UBD), this gives a crisp, responsive feel that recovers instantly after a cast, allowing for pinpoint accuracy even in tight swims. - Next-Gen Full Carbon Monocoque: The 2024 handle has been refined to be even more resonant. Acting as a vibration-amplifying chamber, it transmits the most delicate "ticks" and changes in bottom composition directly into your hand. - Light-Action Precision: The 3-10g rating is aimed at the light-lure specialist. The rod is sensitive enough to register the movement of a 3g lure but has a surprising amount of "hidden power" in the lower sections to handle bonus fish like large perch or zander. - Perfection CI4+ Reel Seat: This ultra-lightweight seat is designed for maximum ergonomics and direct blank contact, helping the rod feel like an extension of your arm and reducing fatigue during long, technical sessions. - Premium Guide Train: Featuring Shimano's proprietary X-Guides on the tip section, the rod has reduced swing weight and improved line management, which is essential when using ultra-fine braids and fluorocarbon leaders. The 6'6" length of the 266L2 suits boat fishing or overgrown canal banks. Its shorter length gives you control when pitching lures under trees or bridge pilings where a longer rod would be cumbersome.
