Description
Bridging the gap between an ultra-comfortable, traditional full or split-grip cork handled bass rod, the lightweight, ultra-sensitive feel of a true JDM build, the Shimano Poison Glorious Casting lineup delivers a refined middle ground. Seven technique-specific models anchor the lineup, each engineered for precise on-the-water performance. From versatile power fishing applications to a dedicated swimbait model built with a full cork handle for added leverage when launching big baits, Poison Glorious brings elevated sensitivity and refined balance to every presentation. Starting at the rear grip and into the reel seat, Shimano is debuting FusionGrip Technology to the U.S market, which features a thin cork grip spread onto a Carbon Monocoque grip, a hollow carbon structure that transmits vibration directly to the angler’s hand. From there, a CI4+ reel seat is utilized for a lightweight reel-to-rod connection. The Poison Glorious rod blank is tuned for peak performance through the combination of Shimano’s Ultimate Blanks Design (UBD), Spiral X Core, and Hi-Power X. The UBD technology allows Shimano to strategically position different carbon materials throughout the blank, optimizing sensitivity, strength, and weight balance for each specific model. Spiral X Core then builds a hyper-rigid internal framework that resists twist and maintains structural integrity under extreme pressure. Hi-Power X wraps that core with a tailored carbon matrix that fine-tunes flex, recovery, and vibration control. The Poison Glorious series also features premium componentry, including the Shimano X Guide for the stripper guides, followed by Fuji Ti SiC guides throughout the rest of the layout. Uniting advanced blank construction, innovative grip technology, and premium componentry, the Poison Glorious casting series delivers a seamlessly integrated high-performance platform built for anglers who demand sensitivity, balance, and technique-driven precision.
Features
-
FusionGrip Technology: Combines a thin cork layer with a Carbon Monocoque core to deliver heightened sensitivity and direct vibration transmission to the angler’s hand while maintaining a comfortable, traditional grip feel
-
CI4+ Reel Seat: Lightweight, ultra-rigid Carbon-Interfusion design that boosts sensitivity while cutting weight for high-end rod performance
-
Spiral X Core: Featuring a three-layer structure that uses proprietary carbon tape to significantly boost strength while cutting weight and minimizing twist
-
Hi Power X: Utilizes diagonally wrapped carbon tape that creates a distinctive X pattern reinforcement on the rod blank’s outer layer, which adds strength and limits blank twist without adding extra weight
-
Shimano X Guide: Shimano’s proprietary next-generation rod guide system is designed to be lighter, stronger, and dramatically more tangle-resistant than traditional guide frames. It helps anglers by improving casting distance, reducing line trouble, and increasing sensitivity
