Shimano Bay Game Hirame

The Shimano Bay Game Hirame is a specialized boat fishing rod series designed for Japanese flounder fishing with live bait, combining the delicate presentation needed to keep baitfish healthy and encourage natural bites with the powerful butt strength required to fight exceptionally large flounder.

Its carefully balanced blank allows live bait to swim naturally without excessive resistance, while maintaining the lifting power needed for confident hooksets and demanding fights. Shimano's Spiral X construction forms the foundation of the blank, using a three-layer carbon structure with diagonally wound carbon tape in opposing directions to increase torsional and crushing rigidity.

This reduces unwanted rod vibration and power loss, resulting in sharper handling, more precise bait control and efficient power transmission during hooksetting and fighting. A flexible glass solid tip combines appropriate firmness and sensitivity with excellent bite acceptance.

It helps absorb subtle contacts without rejecting bites, allowing flounder to take live bait naturally before the angler commits to the hookset. The series features Shimano's X Seat Extreme Gun Grip, an ergonomic reel seat designed specifically for secure palming of conventional baitcasting reels and small to medium electric reels.

Its distinctive asymmetrical gun-grip shape increases contact between the palm and handle, allowing the entire hand to support the rod securely. According to Shimano's comparative testing, the design reduces rod movement during reeling by approximately 30% and palming load by up to 45% compared with its previous design.

These improvements help reduce fatigue during extended handheld fishing while providing greater stability and leverage when setting the hook or fighting large fish. The grip is available in dedicated RIGHT and LEFT configurations corresponding to right-hand and left-hand retrieve reels, and the X Seat Extreme Gun Grip M component is replaceable.

The lineup consists of two distinct rod actions, each offered in both grip orientations. The 64 M270 features a progressive 6:4 action designed for delicate live-bait presentations.

Its flexible, cushioning characteristics help prevent the rig from bouncing excessively in rough seas and allow flounder to swallow the bait with minimal resistance. It is particularly suitable for anglers who prioritize natural bait presentation and controlled bite acceptance.

The 73 MH270 features a more responsive 7:3 action with a firmer tip-supporting section, providing enhanced control during drifting presentations, deeper-water fishing and fishing around rugged rocky bottoms. Even when the rig moves beneath the boat and the sinker pulls against the rod, its stronger tip support enables deliberate bait manipulation and stable operation.

All four models measure 2. 70 m and use a two-piece parallel-joint construction.

The combination of Spiral X strength, a sensitive glass solid tip and the X Seat Extreme Gun Grip makes Bay Game Hirame a versatile and dependable choice for technical live-bait flounder fishing from boats.

La Shimano Bay Game Hirame es una serie especializada de cañas para la pesca de lenguado japonés desde embarcación con cebo vivo, diseñada para combinar la delicadeza necesaria para mantener el cebo en buenas condiciones y favorecer picadas naturales con la potencia de la sección inferior necesaria para combatir ejemplares excepcionalmente grandes. Su blank cuidadosamente equilibrado permite que el cebo vivo nade de forma natural sin resistencia excesiva, conservando la fuerza necesaria para clavar con seguridad y afrontar combates exigentes. La construcción Shimano Spiral X constituye la base del blank y utiliza una estructura de carbono de tres capas con cintas enrolladas diagonalmente en direcciones opuestas para aumentar la rigidez torsional y la resistencia al aplastamiento. Esto reduce las vibraciones no deseadas y las pérdidas de potencia, proporcionando un manejo más preciso, mejor control del cebo y una transmisión eficiente de la fuerza durante la clavada y el combate. La puntera maciza de fibra de vidrio combina una firmeza y sensibilidad adecuadas con una excelente capacidad para acompañar la toma del cebo. Ayuda a absorber los contactos sutiles sin rechazar las picadas, permitiendo que el lenguado tome el cebo vivo de manera natural antes de que el pescador realice la clavada. La serie incorpora el X Seat Extreme Gun Grip de Shimano, un portacarretes ergonómico diseñado para sujetar firmemente carretes convencionales de casting y carretes eléctricos pequeños o medianos. Su distintiva forma asimétrica de empuñadura tipo pistola aumenta la superficie de contacto con la palma, permitiendo sostener la caña con toda la mano. Según las pruebas comparativas de Shimano, este diseño reduce aproximadamente un 30% los movimientos de la caña durante la recuperación y hasta un 45% la carga sobre la mano al sujetar el carrete, respecto al diseño anterior. Estas mejoras ayudan a reducir la fatiga durante largas sesiones de pesca manual y proporcionan mayor estabilidad y capacidad de aplicar fuerza durante la clavada y el combate. La empuñadura se ofrece en configuraciones específicas RIGHT y LEFT para carretes de manivela derecha e izquierda, y el componente X Seat Extreme Gun Grip M es reemplazable. La gama comprende dos acciones diferenciadas, cada una disponible con ambas orientaciones de empuñadura. El 64 M270 presenta una acción progresiva 6:4, desarrollada para presentar el cebo vivo con delicadeza. Su flexión amortiguadora evita que el aparejo rebote excesivamente en mares agitados y permite que el lenguado tome el cebo con una resistencia mínima. Es especialmente adecuado para pescadores que priorizan la presentación natural y la aceptación controlada de la picada. El 73 MH270 presenta una acción 7:3 más reactiva, con una sección de soporte de la puntera más firme que mejora el control durante la pesca a la deriva, en aguas profundas y alrededor de fondos rocosos irregulares. Incluso cuando el aparejo se desplaza debajo de la embarcación y el plomo ejerce tensión sobre la caña, su mayor firmeza permite manipular el cebo de forma deliberada y mantener una operación estable. Los cuatro modelos miden 2,70 m y presentan una construcción de dos piezas con unión convencional. La combinación de la resistencia Spiral X, la sensible puntera maciza de fibra de vidrio y el X Seat Extreme Gun Grip convierte a Bay Game Hirame en una opción versátil y fiable para la pesca técnica de lenguado con cebo vivo desde embarcación.

Shimano Bay Game Hirame 是專為日本船釣比目魚活餌釣法開發的專用釣竿系列,兼顧讓活餌保持自然游動、不易衰弱的細膩操作性能,以及面對大型座布團級比目魚時所需的強韌竿身力量。經過精密調校的竿身能減少活餌受到的不必要阻力,讓魚兒自然吞餌,同時保有確實揚竿與對抗大型魚的充足力量。竿身採用 Shimano Spiral X 基本結構,透過縱向碳纖維與內外兩層反向斜繞的碳纖維帶形成三層強化結構,提升抗扭轉剛性與抗壓強度。這項技術有效降低竿身多餘晃動與力量損失,使活餌操作更加俐落精準,並在揚竿及搏魚時提供高效率的力量傳遞。柔韌的玻璃纖維實心竿稍兼具適度張力、良好感度與優異的吞餌順應性,能夠吸收魚兒接觸活餌時的細微拉力,避免因竿稍過硬而彈開魚訊,讓比目魚在較少異物感的情況下自然吞餌,幫助釣者掌握適當的揚竿時機。系列搭載 Shimano X Seat Extreme Gun Grip 極致槍型握把,專為雙軸捲線器及中小型電動捲線器的穩定包覆握持而設計。其獨特的非對稱槍型結構增加手掌與握把的接觸面積,使整個手掌能夠自然包覆並穩固支撐釣竿。根據 Shimano 與舊款設計的比較測試,收線時的竿身晃動約可減少 30%,包覆握持時的手部負荷最多可降低 45%。這些改良有助於減輕長時間手持作釣的疲勞,並提升揚竿與對抗大型魚時的穩定性及施力效率。握把分為 RIGHT 與 LEFT 專用配置,分別對應右手及左手搖柄的雙軸或電動捲線器,X Seat Extreme Gun Grip M 握把部件亦可更換。系列提供兩種不同調性,每種調性均有左右手配置可選。64 M270 採用柔順的 6:4 調性,專為細膩的活餌呈現而設計。其漸進式彎曲與緩衝特性能減少風浪較大時釣組的過度跳動,讓比目魚在較少阻力的情況下自然吞入活餌,特別適合重視自然誘魚與穩定吞餌表現的釣者。73 MH270 則採用反應更直接的 7:3 調性,竿稍支撐力更強,適合橫流漂釣、較深水域及礁石崎嶇的海底環境。即使釣組隨水流移至船底下方、鉛錘對竿身形成持續拉力,較強的竿稍支撐力仍能維持清晰而穩定的誘魚操作。四款型號全長均為 2.70 m,採用兩節並繼式結構。Bay Game Hirame 結合 Spiral X 的竿身強度、玻璃纖維實心竿稍的細膩吞餌性能,以及 X Seat Extreme Gun Grip 的人體工學握持設計,為追求自然活餌呈現、精確操作與可靠搏魚力量的船釣比目魚玩家提供專業選擇。
