Bend it boldly and go head-to-head!

Built with a purpose, pursue slow pitch jigging with power.

Fight head-to-head with the target fish with the rod bent vigorously unlike the traditional slow pitch rod. The Ocea Jigger Full Bend is a rod that was born to enjoy such an exciting style of jigging. There is no point in a rod that is just soft. While under load, the entire blank accumulates force, emphasising the balance between the “responsiveness” peculiar to full solid and the “repulsive force” that accurately bounces the jig. In addition, the rod is easy to load up and the angler’s balance is stable, which suppresses fatigue and enables lifting strength. This is the biggest feature of this series.

The pleasure of bending. Full bend concept that tastes the essence of full solid.

The rod narrowed down like a full moon is bent to the limit to face large fish. It is a fighting style that every angler admires. What creates such an exciting scene is a supple rod that flexes the whole body to catch the fish, and the underlying power to make the fish float and finish it from that state.

You don’t need a bad rod that just bends. The sharpness of the jig alone is not enough. What I want is a rod that bends well, has excellent response, and is strong. As a result of embodying the factors we sought, we arrived at the concept of full bend.

The tenacity of full solid blanks that does not impair cushioning even when bent to the limit leads to a sense of security, and you can enjoy exciting fights without stress. Let’s Full Bend. I want you to experience the new world created by bending.

The development concept is “bait rods that are really effective for tuna jigging”

Tuna jigging has been attracting the attention of jigging fans for several years now. It’s an exciting game where you have to jig off large tuna such as yellowfin tuna and albacore butterfly. However, fishing for heavy jigs in waters over 100 meters is tough for anglers. What rods are needed in this situation, and to develop a game in favor of anglers in bait jigging? The development of Ful Bend began there.

The reason why full solid was introduced to jigging bait rods, which are the mainstream tubular models that emphasized operability, is simply that the inside of the blanks is not hollow as a structure, so it can be designed thinner with the same power, and it is easy to bend and has excellent strength. In addition, it is easy to stand the rod and stabilizes the balance of the angler, which reduces fatigue and enables power fights with large fish for a long time. These characteristics were refined with Shimano’s technology, and a high-dimensional blank was born that combines the response of jig manipulation with lift power during fighting.

High balance of stickiness and response. An evolution of the full solid rod that combines advanced technology.

The full-bend blank structure has three features. First, the core material is made of high-strength carbon solid Tuftec ∞. By adopting a hybrid design in which the outer layer of the core material is wrapped around with a lightweight cavon sheet, it can be finished even thinner and lighter than conventional full solid. And high-power X full solid, which strengthens the outermost layer in an X shape with carbon tape, is used to improve screw rigidity. Conventional full solids are aggregates of longitudinal fibers, and there are few oblique fibers that suppress screwing. As a result, it is easy to twist, and there is an unpleasant feeling such as blurring, power loss, and squeaking. The solution to these weaknesses is the high-power X full solid.

In terms of actual fishing, we cover various techniques from root fish aiming and slow invitations near the bottom to fast jerks that explore a wide area in the middle layer. After a hit, it not only exhibits the tenacity peculiar to full solid to catch fish, but also has the advantage of being able to deal with large fish with spare power by making it easier to stand the rod and stabilizing the fighting posture. When you have this rod in your hands, the concept of a full solid rod will change dramatically.

Features:

X-Guide

Shimano’s original guide [X guide] that brings out the original rod performance.

Born from the rod manufacturer’s point of view, the X-Guide was created to fully exploit the potential of blanks. This is Shimano’s original high-performance guide that combines lightness, troublelessness, and cast performance at a high level.

High Power X Full Solid

While retaining the characteristics of full solids such as thin, well bent, and tenacious, it uses a reinforced structure to suppress screwing. The outermost layer of the blanks is reinforced in an X-shape with carbon tape to greatly reduce blurring and power loss. The unpleasant feeling due to the ease of screwing, which was a common problem with full solids, has been suppressed, and a comfortable rod action has been realized.

Taftec ∞ (Infiniti)

The newly developed Tuftec ∞ achieves 3 times the entrapment strength and 5 times the entrapment amount compared to general solids (compared to our company). It is a high-strength solid tip that surpasses the strong Tuftec α.

CI4+

CI4+ is a further evolution of Shimano’s unique material CI4, which is reinforced by carbon fiber. Compared to conventional resins, it is lighter and has higher strength.

Full Holding Sheet

Support high-precision operation.

The narrowed tip shape and constriction process pursue a fit that sucks and a tireless grip, and adapts to various grip styles such as gripping, placing on the palm, and 2 to 4 fingers. In addition, the lower part of the grip is flattened to improve stability when gripped, supporting high-precision jigging from the hand. In addition, the use of carbon-reinforced material CI4+ aims to reduce weight and high sensitivity.

X-Guide 3D Titanium

Shimano’s original X guide that brings out the original performance of the rod.

The guide uses Shimano’s original X guide and 3D titanium that brings out the original performance of the rod. The guide frame, made of strong and lightweight titanium and created by Shimano’s unique cold forging technology, is designed to eliminate steps and edges, and thorough verification of inclination angles drastically reduces line troubles and achieves smooth thread removal. The guide foot is designed to be as short as possible, and the line follows the blanks, resulting in a high sensitivity that clearly transmits beautiful bends and delicate edges.

Flat rear grip

Flat rear grip for increased stability of the armrest jerk

The rear grip adopts a flat design that makes the armrest jerk more comfortable to operate. Excellent elbow rest stability against repetitive up-and-down jerks, which not only increases jerk accuracy but also reduces fatigue and stress. Supports reliable jig action.

Grip joint 2-piece
