The NASCI range of spinning rods takes inspiration from the Nasci reel, with sober elegance combined with unquestionable functionality. The satin gray carbon blanks are light and responsive, with a power reserve due to the application of Biofibre and a further reduction in torsion thanks to Diaflash carbon wraps on the butt section. Available with fast and moderate action cork or EVA split handles, the custom designed reel seats are miniature works of art, combining metal, carbon and composite to produce an ultra thin and extremely solid reel connection. In use, all models ensure long and precise casts, worthy of high-end rods and are characterized by specific actions for each lure. Twist reduction, power and tip feel complete this range of exceptional tools.

The new series of Shimano Curado spinning rods are designed with several versatile and technique-specific actions for bass anglers. The shells are light and sensitive thanks to the high modulus UD hybrid carbon with nano resin gaps, the handles are made of EVA and Fuji components. Tangle-free Fuji Alconite guides and matte rubberized and soft touch coated Fuji reel seats mean Curado rods are created with high-end features for top-notch performance.

<p>The Technium AS trout area rods are specifically designed to maximize fishing performance with small hardbaits and spoons. Ultra light and thin, the Technium AS's premium action is semi-parabolic to improve casting and fish retrieval when using light lines and barbless hooks. The Technium AS offers small diameters with excellent performance. Paired with a small Shimano 1000 or 2000 spinning reel, you get a set-up that even the best Trout Area anglers would be happy to use. You can't help but notice how well the Technium AS casts, even when using the smallest spoons, weighing less than 1g. But it is when you hook a trout that the rod shows its true values: it bends gently along its entire length, absorbing escapes and headbutts from the hooked trout. The Technium AS Full Carbon blanks are in line with the latest requirements for Trout Area rods. Lightweight, ultra-thin and with perfect action, the addition of Shimano's exclusive Diaflash technology gives all four models the perfect amount of backbone to accurately cast ultra-light lures and create spoons and micros hardbait. To reinforce the quality of the design, Technium AS uses Fuji KR type guides with Fazlite coatings, which work particularly well with ultra-thin braided lines. The ergonomic Shimano IPS reel seat was chosen to ensure comfort and sensitivity and the split grip cork handle completes the modern and classic look. Available in four different models: two lengths and two powers, to best meet your needs.</p>
