SHIMANO 25 Searea Bait Saguri Type-1

Expanding Rod Versatility and Unlocking Potential with Two Soft Replacement Tips

Soft and delicate replacement tips are now available for the popular Celia Bait Saguri series (standard joint). Featuring two different actions—Type-1 and Type-2—these tips enhance performance in any condition at offshore fishing ponds, allowing anglers to pursue the most valuable catch. The Glass Solid tip with Ukiuki Top offers exceptional visual sensitivity, improving both hand-held and rod-rest fishing by enhancing bite detection and hooking capability.

Type-1

• Effective for enticing fish by adding action to bait such as live shrimp, krill, and sardines.
• Balances moderate stiffness with flexibility to prevent bait from tearing off the hook.

KEY FEATURES

Two Flexible Tips with Distinct Actions

Designed specifically for Celia Bait Saguri series users, these replacement tips offer increased flexibility and sensitivity compared to the standard tip, each with unique characteristics. Anglers can choose their preferred action or switch between both depending on the fishing conditions.

Type-1: Active Approach – Inducing Strikes

Shimano’s concept for bait saguri fishing emphasizes reaction-based techniques to entice wary fish, especially during slow periods. While the original Celia Bait Saguri tip was designed for active jigging and hooking, some users noted that its ultra-fast action made it harder to detect subtle bites and hold soft baits.

In response, the Type-1 tip was developed, balancing responsiveness and flexibility to maintain bait integrity while allowing for precise action. It excels when imparting movement to delicate baits like shrimp, krill, or cut bait, providing a crucial advantage during challenging fishing windows.

Type-2: Passive Approach – Natural Bite Detection

Designed to blend seamlessly into the fish’s environment, Type-2 enables a "bite-and-run" style approach. Instead of inducing strikes, this tip is crafted for waiting and detecting subtle bites.

Its carefully engineered low-taper design allows for smooth, natural movement, making it ideal for rod-rest fishing or holding steady in the water. The tip bends fluidly as the fish takes the bait, preventing early resistance detection. This is particularly effective for species like white trevally (shima-aji), which hover and test bait before fully committing.

High-Visibility Color Design for Offshore Fishing Ponds

Featuring Ukiuki Top technology, the tip’s color-coded segments—expanding white, highly visible orange, and contrasting green—enhance visual sensitivity across different lighting conditions, allowing anglers to detect even the most delicate bites with ease.

FEATURES

Ukiuki Top
