Speed. Power. Comfort
The Shimano Talica 12 Grappler Type J B566 Overhead Jigging Combo is the perfect blend of strength and power that's built to last. With this pairing you get an ultra smooth and powerful Shimano Talica 12 reel, plus the new Grappler Rod provides all the power and comfort you need for those long, tough fights. Tough fish will know who's boss.
The Reel
The Shimano Talica 12 Jigging Reel is built on solid engineering principles that put this reel in a league of its own. It offers a high-speed retrieve that you can use for jigging up brutal Kingfish from offshore structure where speed can make all the difference. You can also use it to target Marlin and Tuna trolling lures or pitching out a bait to a fired up pelagic.
This reel has a one-piece cold forged and machined Aluminium frame, treated with a proprietary surface process for cutting-edge corrosion protection. Shimano then added a lightweight cold forged aluminium spool, oversized HEG (High Efficiency Gearing) gear, waterproof carbon drag system and 6 S-ARB bearings for super slick operation. The Shimano Talica 12 High Speed Jigging Reel is constructed to withstand massive drag pressures and a carbon drag system has been waterproofed (when engaged) to handle salt water spray.
S A-RB
These bearings have been through the same process as the A-RB bearings but feature shields on both sides of the bearings. That system reduces the possibility of salts or sand inhibiting the bearings rotation.
CF Aluminium Cold Forged Spool
This spool increases the strength and durability over diecast aluminium or graphite spools.
The Rod
The Shimano Grappler Type J B566 Overhead Jigging Rod features awesome newly designed blanks packed with high-end features like Spiral X and Hi-Power X, both of which are very rare for this price range. In addition to being light, strong and stable during fish fights, the Shimano Grappler Type J B566 Overhead Jigging Rod is equipped with double-footed MN guides and rubber gimbals. This makes it an excellent rod for targeting big game fish.
Spiral X
Spiral X Construction consists of 3 layers - a blank made of vertical fibres, 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 fibre 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 will definitely enhance your catching power!
H-Power X
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.
