The Shimano BIOIMPACT MARUIKA series is a high-performance rod lineup designed specifically for targeting maruika (spear squid) with ultra-fine bite detection and precision control. Each rod features Shimano’s signature [Tough Tech α] or [Tough Tech] carbon solid tips, providing a flexible yet resilient tip action that visually amplifies the faintest bites from micro squid, ensuring a clear signal when the squid is just testing the lure.
The BIOIMPACT MARUIKA rods are finely tuned for both mid-water and deep-water “Zero-Ten” (zero-tension) fishing techniques, where maintaining the rig just off the bottom with minimal tension is key to enticing wary squid. The blanks use advanced carbon materials to reduce weight while maintaining the perfect balance between sensitivity and strength.
From delicate 7:3 action rods that allow you to work slow, precise jigging in varying depths, to longer models that excel in deep zones, the series offers reliable cushion action to prevent the soft tips from bouncing too much, helping reduce line tangles or accidental breakage.
Finished with corrosion-resistant guides and comfortable grips for long hours of saltwater use, the BIOIMPACT MARUIKA series is a top choice for serious squid anglers who need to stay a step ahead of subtle bites. With Shimano’s trusted blank technology, you get the confidence to handle light rigs with precision, season after season.
