170M + -G / 2

HARD BAIT

[2 pieces] -One & Half / Hooking power UP concept-
Set a seam near the belly that produces power during hooking. By forcibly increasing the diameter of the joint position to one rank, a sharp hooking position is created at the source of the delicate tip. It reduces miss bites and increases the catch rate without disturbing the lure's original swimming.
A glass composite rod that has been updated for anglers who hesitate points while technically controlling the range and actively hang bites. A wide range of applicable lures are available, including middle to deep cranks, vibrations, spinner baits, and small swim baits. By adopting a one-and-half design that makes the tip side short, you can instantly transmit power to the lure such as weed hang-off and hooking while having a tenacious tone with excellent followability.

A cork grip that makes history.

A tackle that can be used for a long time and can be loved for a lifetime. One of the parts that embodies the basic idea of Bantam is the cork grip. Why does Shimano, which leads with the latest technology such as full carbon monocoque grip, dare to adopt cork for bantam? The reason is that the material called cork is a material that gives off a "taste" the more you use it while maintaining sufficient performance for a long period of time. The scratches on the carbon are just scratches, but the scratches on the cork and the aging are the texture. Bantam's cork grips have a history of walking with you.

EVA grip that can withstand tough use.

On the other hand, some bantam models have EVA grips. There are two items, 168XH-SB / 2 and 1711MH + -SB / 2. These two power rods, which follow the flow of the previous 170UH-SB (made-to-order model), swing out large lures powerfully and maintain high reliability even under tough conditions such as rain, so they are more slippery and hard EVA. Select. While respecting the basic philosophy, we will not allow any compromise in terms of unyielding performance in actual use. It is a special specification for controlling the fight against monsters.
