Since hitting the market, SLX rods and reels have quickly become a favorite for so many.
New for 2022, the SLX rod series has received an overhaul. Here are the top three things you need to know about the new lineup of SLX A rods.
1) DIAFLASH: A new SLX blank design that includes Shimano's DIAFLASH technology reinforces the blanks from the butt to the first guide to improve durability and prevent twisting under heavy force like casting or fighting big fish.
2) Versatility: The SLX series covers anglers in many areas with models covering everything from casting, cranking, swim baits and spinning rods from 6ft 9in to 7ft 10in lengths, and Medium Light to Heavy powers are available.
3) The newly updated cosmetics showcase the SLX's curb appeal with a laser-etched logo in the EVA foam handles that were reshaped for added comfort.
4) Shipped with Custom Rod Bag
The SLX lure rod range has been selected from the Shimano American Bass line up, where it has proven to be an outstanding performer across a wide range of methods.
Offering remarkable value, the Baitcasting models cosmetically match the hugely popular SLX Baitcasting reels, whilst the Spinning models match with the Nexave Spinning reels.
If you are looking for a combination of great value, modern looks and versatile performance from your next lure rod, you have to check out the SLX. Hugely popular with American Bass anglers, the SLX comes in a wide range of Baitcasting and Spinning options, which are also perfectly suited to African and European predator species using a wide variety of lure techniques.
Cosmetically they match the SLX or Nexave reels, so depending on your preference, you can have a coordinated combo that not only looks brilliant on the bank, it won’t cost a fortune either.
The full carbon blank of the SLX has a wonderful playing action which is enhanced with Shimano Diaflash in the bottom part of the butt section. This is useful in the lighter models, especially when playing large, powerful fish that are testing your tackle to the maximum.
DIA FLASH
DIAFLASH is a reinforced structure that prevents twisting of the butt section in situations where high-intensity is applied, for example during casting and fighting with fish. Due to the effect of DIAFLASH it becomes possible to convey the pulling power of the angler to the target fish while minimizing the loss of energy by flexing of the butt section.
All models are fitted with Shimano Hardlite guides, which are light, strong and perfectly suited to mono and braided mainlines. To enhance performance further and complement the modern appearance, an ergonomic Custom VSS style reel seat blends perfectly into the blank of the Spinning rods, whilst the Casting rods use a Custom ECS design with a carbon locking collar.
The Spinning Rods come with extra-fast actions for pin-point casting performance of light and medium lures, whilst the Baitcasting range offers a variety of actions from as light as 5-10g up to a muscle flexing 30-120g powerhouse.
