The Path of Tradition or the Path of Dominance: A Specialty Rod Enabling New Strategies.
Expanding across two fields, shore and boat, this rod is designed for the technical saltwater game targets of Black Sea Bream (Chinu) and Silver Bream (Kibire). The lineup of "Brenious XR" has been carefully selected to tackle the ever-changing field, and it can be described as a balance of the traditional path and the path to dominance. The basic models enhance their performance while offering the ability for anglers to refine their tactics and achieve the desired catch. This marks the beginning of a new chapter in the Brenious legacy.
KEY FEATURE
Innovative Approach to a New World of Chining. Leading the Era with Distinctive Strategies.
To tackle the fierce and competitive world of Chining across the nation, Brenious XR was born, embodying the thoughts of shore and boat fishing specialists. This new generation of Brenious is a balance between the traditional path and the path of dominance, offering a unique lineup that allows anglers to refine their tactics and push the boundaries of performance in their game.
Specialist Approaches for Adapting to Field Conditions.
The Brenious XR incorporates the sensibilities of three Shimano Brenious staff members—Kenji Kuroda, Seidai Ieda, and Yasuo Kawakami. It showcases an exceptional variety that caters to the increasingly high-pressure world of Chining, from shore to boat fishing, aiming to unlock new potential.
Technological Excellence for Outstanding Blanks.
The Brenious XR utilizes Spiral X Core and High Power X technologies in the blank's material. The Spiral X Core employs carbon tape wound around the blank from both sides, enhancing strength against bending, twisting, and collapsing. The High Power X method adds an X-shaped carbon tape layer around the blank's outer surface, improving power transmission and preserving the blank's original performance, ensuring the rod bends in the direction intended by the angler.
Lightweight Construction for Sensitivity.
The grip features the Carbon Monocoque Grip Edge Type, inherited from the XTune series. The rear grip uses a hollow structure integrated with carbon, reducing weight significantly compared to typical EVA or cork grips. This lightweight design enhances sensitivity and provides superior information transmission, while the edge-style design of the grip helps improve casting accuracy and distance.
Original Guide for Smooth Line Flow.
The X Guide 3D Titanium is used for the rod's guide, crafted from strong yet lightweight titanium. This guide, developed with unique cold-forging technology, eliminates edges and features calculated angles for smooth line flow. This guide reduces the chances of line tangling, even in strong winds or adverse conditions, while maintaining high-level performance.
Delicate Bottom Exploration.
The spinning model's front grip employs the Side Slice Compact Grip, which allows for easy handling and better maneuverability. The cut-out area helps the rod become more ergonomic, improving grip when the rod is held at an angle, making it easier to detect subtle bites and perform precise hooksets.

Spinning Model
Bait Model
Perfection Seat VI (CI4+) + Cork Grip A lightweight reel seat with material removal in areas where finger contact is not affected when attaching the reel. By lowering the trigger height, it allows smooth grip adjustments after casting. The grip is made of cork material. Note: Only for baitcasting models.
Perfection Seat XT (CI4+) + Cork Grip A lightweight, high-sensitivity reel seat, the Perfection Seat XT, is adopted to enhance holding comfort. With no steps, it provides a secure grip with just a light touch. The high vibration transmission rate of the carbon reinforced material CI4+ allows for a linear transmission of underwater movements. The grip is made of cork material. Note: Only for spinning models.
Side Slice Compact Grip A design where the area where fingers wrap around the grip is cut away, making it easier to hold the rod in a standing position. This feature supports an active fishing style where quick hook setting is needed, even in challenging situations with fewer bites. Note: Only for spinning models.
Carbon Monocoque Grip Edge Type A hollow carbon grip structure that contributes to weight reduction and increases the rod's sensitivity. The edge shape provides a secure hold by creating friction for your fingers, improving casting accuracy, and supporting longer casting distances.
X Guide (3D Titanium Top + 3D Titanium) Guides are essential parts that maximize the blank's performance. The X Guide features Shimano’s unique cold forging technology and 3D technology to form a titanium frame with an integrated structure. It combines lightness and strength, offering trouble-free performance and smooth line release. By shortening the guide foot, it creates a smooth and beautiful bend curve, fully bringing out the blank's potential.
High Response Solid Tip A tip designed for a "hooking" action, offering quick response to subtle rig movements. It allows for immediate hook-setting when a bite is detected. This design supports an aggressive fishing style. The S76ML-S and B76ML-S models feature a high-visibility vivid white tip, making it easier to react calmly to bites. Note: Found on B74ML-S, B76ML-S, S72L+-S, and S76ML-S models.
