Product Overview
The Shimano DEEP SOLDIER is a high-performance deep-sea boat rod series designed for precision targeting of species such as kinmedai, nodoguro, onikasago, and other deepwater fish. With its 7:3 action and varying sinker capacities across models, this series offers exceptional sensitivity, powerful lifting strength, and dependable operability for both handheld and rod holder setups.
Key Features
The DEEP SOLDIER features lightweight blanks with excellent sensitivity for detecting subtle bites from the deep. The 7:3 action provides firm control and responsiveness, especially effective when using multi-hook rigs. Each model is tuned to match specific sinker weight ranges—from 150号 to 500号—ensuring optimal performance at various depths. Depending on the model, you'll find configurations suited for handheld fishing with long butts or rod holder use with short/semi-long butts. The balanced design also includes shock-absorbing properties to reduce hook-offs and line stress during retrieval.
Recommended Usage
Ideal for deep-sea anglers targeting species like kinmedai (splendid alfonsino), benikou, aburabouzu, nodoguro, and more. Whether fishing from mid-depth to light-deep or extreme deep zones, the DEEP SOLDIER series supports both precision manipulation and heavy-load lifting, making it a dependable companion for offshore drop fishing.
