Shakespeare Agility Spinning Rod
Shakespeare has been the leader in quality, affordable fishing tackle since 1897 and the brand is constantly striving to improve their products to provide the ultimate angling experiences for fishermen everywhere. Its aim is simple; to make fishing easy and enjoyable, and this Agility Spinning Rod will certainly help with that thanks to its brilliant features. With 115 years of experience and a true passion for angling under its belt, Shakespeare’s excellence and knowledge really comes through in this superb rod. Spinning is one of the most popular forms of fishing in the UK and you’ll surely want to have a go at it some time, so why not now?
One of the most prominent features of this rod is its slim, powerful and strong carbon blank. This makes the entire rod more rigid and able to withstand more force, which will allow you to easily reel in those bigger and more aggressive predator fish whilst remaining light enough for you to carry with ease. With this incredible forgiving action, this spinning rod can endure anything. Not only that, but carbon blanks are extremely sensitive and will be able to indicate when you have a bite more easily, so you’ll never miss anything at the end of your rod. If its fantastic quality wasn’t enough, it also has a matt satin finish to make your rod not only be powerful, but look it too.
Keeping your line protected whilst you fish can always be a pain, but you won’t have to worry about it again with this agility spinning rod. It comes ready made with zirconium oxide striper guides which are oversized, double leg guides and will elevate your line away from the rod itself and therefore completely eliminate any chances of friction occurring between the line and the rod, which is the most common cause of line damage. Zirconium oxide is an exceedingly strong material and with high fracture resistance, so these rings will last just as long as the rod itself, giving you constant, quality protection for your line. Each rod in this range has its own specific guides to match the correct length and casting style of the rod, optimising the performance of these already excellent guides.
The engraved aluminium reel seat will allow your reel to sit comfortably and balance out your rod so you can throw the perfect cast. These rods also all have AAA quality cork, giving them a soft touch for your convenience, and a highly endurable handle to prolong the life of the rod.
If you’re an angler that enjoys a spot of travelling, the smaller rods (7FT, 8FT, 9FT) in this range are for you. They are ideal as light lure rods and perfect for targeting trout and perch especially with small spinners and lures. Despite the lightweight, they still have wonderfully powerful action so you can bank the biggest and most aggressive fish. What’s more, all the rods in this range pack down into four sections and are supplied in a cordura tube, making them easy to transport in a rucksack or tackle bag and take to even the hardest to reach fishing spots.
The longer rods (10FT and 11FT) in this range of rods are fantastic for reeling in salmon or pike. They are best combined with large spinners, plugs, and hardbaits to ensure a successful session of angling. They can also be used for light saltwater spinning for bass and pollack, giving you a huge variety of ways to use the innovative features of these rods.
The versatility of this range of spinning rods is absolutely incredible; there is something for both the novice angler and the experienced angler alike.
