SHIMANO 21 Cardiff NX B60UL
Overview
The NX series is equipped with the long-awaited Spiral X, designed to excel in native trout fishing. This series reduces power loss caused by flex and twist, resulting in improved performance. The spinning models feature the "Air Effect Sheet CI4+" for enhanced sensitivity, while the bait models utilize the "Perfection Sheet XT," achieving a slimmer, lighter design without sacrificing strength or operability. This series allows anglers to enjoy the thrill of engaging with wild instincts in their fishing experiences.
The NX series also includes the highly anticipated combination of Spiral X and Hyper Power X, successfully minimizing power loss through enhanced stability and torsional rigidity. Despite being lighter and slimmer than previous models, strength and operability have significantly improved. This versatile model adapts to a wide range of lures, from lightweight minnows to heavy sinking minnows. It is ideal for open streams to midstream areas and can handle larger trout. The lineup includes models suitable for down-lifting in stream to midstream areas, as well as those specialized for targeting monster trout like salmon.
