Synonymous with performance, the redesigned line of Zodias rods incorporate Carbon Monocoque technology passed down from Shimano’s elite series of rods that set the industry standard for sensitivity. For 2020, Zodias rods couple the hollow Carbon Monocoque Grip into a CI4+ reel seat to achieve up to 30% more sensitivity than conventionally constructed models, ultimately transmitting vibration from underwater structure, lure action or bites into the palm of angler’s hand. Shimano’s Hi-Power X technology lies at the heart of Zodias rods and benefits anglers by increasing the transfer of energy through the rod for enhanced accuracy and casting distance as well as reduced blank twist for better control when fighting fish.

THE REEL TEST

r/FishingForBeginners

 Even more important than the addition of the monocoque handle. A lot of you sharper, more observant viewers may have already noticed this, but in case you haven't with this new model, Shimano has went with a longer and thicker handle and in my opinion that is huge and you can definitely feel it going from one to the other. This is definitely going to help me when it comes to casting and just overall comfort. Now when I first got my first generation Shimano X Pride that had the shorter, i guess more narrowly tapered handle because it was a Jdm model, I immediately noticed how my hand would cramp up trying to grip the reel and the handle while fishing

 Now, apparently, the first generation Shimano Zodius rods was a big hit and a popular seller for Shimano Usa, and I think I can attribute that to the fact that compared to the rods they were selling at the time, the Zodius offered a very radical Jdm style that was way different than the conservatively styled rods they were selling and it also gave American Anglers some Jdm rod only features like the high power X wrap at a relatively affordable price point of 200 and up. So with being such a popular rod line with Shimano, this new generation Zodius better be at least as good. But let's go over my experience with this first generation Zodiac first. Now, the six foot six medium I had was pretty decent, but this seven foot two heavy I feel is underwhelming As far as sensitivity goes, it feels pretty dead to me for a 200 rod and I bought this raw two fish, bigger bottom contact baits

Okay guys, so welcome to what I guess I would consider a preliminary review of the new 2020 Shimano Zodius Rods. So basically, this is not going to be a full-on on the water performance review that's going to come later on, but in this video, I'm just going to go over all the different changes that I observed in the new rod versus the old rod. Now, apparently, the first generation Shimano Zodius rods was a big hit and a popular seller for Shimano Usa, and I think I can attribute that to the fact that compared to the rods they were selling at the time, the Zodius offered a very radical Jdm style that was way different than the conservatively styled rods they were selling and it also gave American Anglers some Jdm rod only features like the high power X wrap at a relatively affordable price point of 200 and up. So with being such a popular rod line with Shimano, this new generation Zodius better be at least as good

 So basically what I did was I took notes on all the changes that I saw that Shimano made in this new second generation Zodius versus the first generation rod and I'm going to go over them with you right now. But what I'm going to do is I'm going to go down the list in order of importance with the least important being first. And with that being said, let us begin. Now, the first change is going to be that the guides on the new rod are now going to be black instead of silver, so hopefully you guys can see that

2020 Shimano ZODIAS: Preliminary REVIEW... whats NEW?

Get an Expride or Zodias instead. Personally, I don’t bother with Loomis unless I’m going high end (GLX at minimum).

I’ve always wanted a g loomis. But never could shell out the money. I’m thinking of getting one of the new gcx rods. Anyone know if g loomis is actually worth the money at that price point? Or am I just paying for a name?

G loomis gcx

They were quick to answer any and all my questions! Great store will be back for sure The rod its great ! True fast action lightweight and can definitely hold its own .

Great rod /great people

If you’re looking for an all around combo go for something around 7’ medium heavy power fast action. Dobyns fury, fenwick HMG, st Croix bass X, are all strongly recommended here. Those may be a little above your price range but they are worth it

It’s a tad pricey but I figure it’s worth it for he DC. Want to get into some bait casting and I have a gift card itching to be used. Can anyone recommend a decent rod? $50-100 range?

Probably gonna buy a Shimano SLX DC

I go mid tier, I have the St. Croix bass x and a lews KVD reel. Not exactly cheap but not too expensive to piss the wife off. But the sensitivity on that rod far exceeds my Berkeley cherrywood by a long shot

I’m new to fishing and people have told me that my cheap pole catches fish just as well as the expensive ones.

<div class="md"><p>I’m new to fishing and people have told me that my cheap pole catches fish just as well as the expensive ones.</p>
</div>

Is expensive gear really that much better than my $30 Zebco spinning rod?

Looking at reels, I suggest the 60-80 (US) dollar range. Rods to check out include St. Croix Bass X, Daiwa Aird X, Dobyns Fury, and the Fenwick HMG or Eagle.

My wife and I used to fish a lot as children and we have been trying to get back into it. 

I've spent hours trying to inform myself properly on rod lengths, reel types, lure types, line strength, 1 piece vs 2 piece rods ect. The depth of the sport is just quite overwhelming. 

What I would like is maybe a good starting point. 

I've seen a lot of praise and a lot of bashing on the Ugly Stik GX2 which kind of brings up red flags for me. 

I did see some great reviews for the Pflueger President but even then they have so many different models it's hard to figure out which one to chose. Then there is the problem of pairing it with the right rod. 7 foot, 6.6, 1 piece or 2. I hear St-Croix are good rods but I'm not exactly sure what would be best. 

Budget wise, I have some leeway. I don't want to go too crazy and spend 1500 on a reel but a couple hundred is fine. 

I live in Quebec ( just west of Montreal ) so I am surrounded by abundant rivers and lakes. I do not own a boat yet so most of my fishing would be done from shore / docks and occasionally from a kayak or small row boat. 

The rivers and lakes around me have a lot of bass, trout, perch, walleye and pike. 

I know it's asking a lot of information and it is subjective to people's experience but any tips on the rod/reel or even lures for my kind of fishing would be greatly appreciated by both my wife and I. 

Thank you guys

Looking for advice on fishing gear for a 33 year old beginner.

I second stepping up to the SLX XT... as for the rod, you can't go wrong with a St Croix Mojo Bass rod

 Unless you just throw small crankbaits, I would definitely go with at least the 7'1 medium heavy rod moderate rod (this is for primarily crankbaits) and if you throw deep divers at all I would go with 7'6 medium heavy moderate fast rod.

Hey everyone

I'm looking to build my first combo and I've had the chance to play with some reels at the store.

I think I've landed on the Shimano SLX for it's size, price, and feel. Although, the Fuego is a close second.

My question for you all is: what rod suggestions for you all have for a Crankbait rod? I've read a medium taper or less is critical for hook sets and I've read different things about length (but it seems 7' is standard). A coworker recommended a Carrot Stick pro rod but I'm not sure I want to spend 120+ on the rod.

Thanks for your help!

Shimano SLX... And which rod?

 St Croix is awesome though and went back to Bass Pro and they gave me 120$ store credit because i had the receipt. Got a mojo bass dock sniper and it snapped casting a jig too. Got a store credit since i had the receipt and now i have a mojo spinning and it’s still doing great. Rods feel great in the hand but i feel like some rods are cheaply made

St Croix Bass X

Bought this rod expecting a well built product. What I got was a rod that snapped 4 inches off the tip when I cast it with a Texas rigged small rage tail! I was embarrassed to have this junk in my boat! Cabela's quickly gave my money back. Their customer service is top notch and they gave me no hassles in returning this tooth pick back to them. The rod was light and sensitive to use, I wish it would have been more dependable than breaking on the first cast! I was going to buy one as a gift for a friend before I used the one that broke

One cast and gone!
