The Reel
Looking for the perfect buddy for inshore fishing?
The Shimano Exsence 4000 HG Spinning Reel strikes an aggressive balance of technology and intelligent design, while embracing the perfect balance of a lightweight feel and durability.
Its MGL Rotor reduces start up inertia, allowing you to control the stand-and-stop retrieval of jigs or lures more efficiently to entice even the most finicky of inshore game fish.
This MGL Rotor technology also enables you to engage in quick hook sets during those defining microseconds between a hooked fish and a missed bite.

The light yet extremely rigid magnesium HAGANE body of the Shimano Exsence 4000 HG Spinning Reel eliminates flex, ensuring maximum reeling efficiency and power transmission.
At the heart of this reel lies Shimano’s cold-forged HAGANE gear, so you get to enjoy extreme cranking power and supreme durability that will last you many fishing seasons.
You better purchase the Shimano Exsence 4000 HG Spinning Reel to experience those defining moments that make it a great day on the water.

MagnumLite Rotor
The new design of the MGL Rotor produces unprecedented light rotation.
The rotor profile – which was previously symmetrical – is now asymmetrical, and the bail arm mechanism – previously situated on the same side as the line roller – has been moved to the opposite side.
This ultimately improves the overall balance.
Combined with a lightweight line roller, titanium bail and optimum arrangement of rotor thickness, the MGL rotor achieves a 14% reduction in rotational inertia to increase sensitivity to unprecedented levels.
But the evolution of rotors is not limited to just reduced weight, the rotor rigidity on the line-roller side is an important performance factor as well.
When compared to conventional models, the rigidity of the MGL Rotor is up to 30% higher and contributes to enhanced drag performance.

HAGANE Body
The HAGANE Body is produced from high rigidity aluminium or magnesium.
This creates stiffness and impact resistance while eliminating flexing of the body while fighting fish.
The result transforms the angler’s actions directly into cranking power, increasing efficiency through strength.

HAGANE Gear
The HAGANE Drive Gear is produced by Shimano’s cold forging technology, without the need for additional machining.
This delivers a long lasting smoothness, strength, lightness and power at the very heart of the reel.
Traditional diecast, machined gears are less durable under heavy loads.

The Rod
If you’re looking for a rod that delivers sharp and crisp control, then the Shimano Blue Romance AX Spin Rod is perfect for you.
The rod’s Hi-Power X construction makes it precise, durable, and twist resistant so you can confidently aim your cast.
Its CI4+ reel seat makes this rod ultra light so you can fish all day without feeling knackered.
Plus, Fuji’s classic K series Alconite guides are fitted throughout the rod so you’ll get to enjoy tangle free casting performance.
Take the Shimano Blue Romance AX Spin Rod to your next fishing adventure and see it perform as good as it looks.

Hi-Power X
In Hi-Power X construction, the blank’s outermost layer is diagonally wrapped with carbon tape, which forms an array of “X” shapes.
The width of the tape, its winding angle, and the part of the rod being wrapped are fine-tuned according to the target fish species.
The flexibility allows Shimano to adjust these wraps during construction for precise actions, enhanced overall strength and added twist resistance.
In short, Hi-Power X construction delivers sharp and crisp rod control by the angler.

Shimano CI4+ reel seat
In addition to using high-end Fuji reel seats, Shimano has designed a number of models in-house.
These Shimano engineered models makes it possible to use specialised reel seats for different types of rods.
The usage of the highly technical material CI4+ creates an ultra light reel seat.
