Grappler Type C rods are purpose-built for sport anglers who demand maximum casting distance and precision. Featuring advanced SPIRAL X and HIGH POWER X blank technologies, these rods minimize tip oscillation and enhance recovery speed—delivering long, straight casts with a wide range of lures, regardless of sea or weather conditions.

Designed with a strong focus on weight reduction, the Grappler Type C helps reduce fatigue during extended sessions without sacrificing power. Despite their lightweight feel, these rods pack serious strength and are more than capable of handling aggressive, hard-fighting fish. Cast big, fight hard—Grappler Type C is ready for anything.

Features & Technology:

• SPIRAL X - Through its exclusive lightweight structure, Shimano's patented Spiral X construction enhances catching power for anglers. Spiral X construction consists of three layers: a middle layer of vertical fibers as well as inner and outer layers, 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 fiber sheet, Spiral X achieves enhanced compression rigidity and increased torsional rigidity without adding extra weight. This in turn facilitates instant power transmission for precise casting and fish fighting.

• HI-POWER - Hi-Power X construction uses diagonally-wrapped carbon tape to form an array of "X" shapes on the rod blank's outermost layer. 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. This manufacturing process 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 for the angler.

• CI4 - This is a Shimano original material reinforced with carbon fiber that is lighter and has a higher strength than conventional resin material. CI4+ is an advanced version of the original CI4 material and is 2.5x more rigid than its predecessor. While improving lightness and rigidity, reel bodies, rotors and reel seats built with CI4+ are further reduced in size and weight.
