Shimano - 25 Grappler Type C S82H

The Shimano 25 Grappler Type C S82H is purpose-built for the hardcore New Zealand topwater angler chasing trophy kingfish and tuna. Constructed with Shimano's proprietary Spiral X and Hi-Power X blank technology, this rod delivers unmatched torsional rigidity and lifting power without unnecessary weight.
