The Shimano Technium Tai Rubber, is a visually stunning range of well-priced, highly technical rods, designed to fish Tai Rubber lures with maximum effect. The ultra lightweight, Full Carbon blanks, with Diaflash technology, have a sensitive solid tip and a moderately progressive action, to ensure lures work correctly in all currents.

Tai Rubber fishing is becoming increasingly popular around the inshore coastal waters of Europe and if you are new to this fishing style, the well-priced Shimano Technium Tai Rubber range is a great rod to use when first experience this technique. Designed with the help of Shimanos Japanese Tai Rubber fishing experts, the Technium Tai Rubber has the ideal progressive action, with additional stiffness near the handle, to fish these unusual lures and derive the maximum effect with a steady retrieve. The addition of a sensitive solid tip, transmits even the smallest bite indication.

The secret of a good Tai Rubber rod is the smooth progressive action, that will absorb any sudden movements of the boat, or the rod. This ensures the Tai Rubber lure will not be knocked off balance, as you slowly retrieve it from the bottom with a smooth, continuous motion. The Technium Tai Rubber is built on a super slim, lightweight Full Carbon blank, with the addition of the Diaflash technology, to stiffen the lower part of the rod. This produces the right amount of flex, to maximize lure performance. The addition of a sensitive solid tip further enhances the rods performance and increases sensitivity. Fitted with lightweight Seaguide guides for minimum line friction, the Technium Tai Rubber is fitted with a Shimano reel seat that will hold a medium sized, baitcasting reel.

Diaflash is a reinforced structure, that prevents twisting of the butt section, in situations where high-intensity is applied, for example during casting and fighting with fish. Due to the effect of Diaflash it becomes possible to convey the pulling power of the angler to the target fish, while minimizing the loss of energy by flexing of the butt section.
