{"product_id":"shimano-yasei-crankbait-casting","title":"Yasei Crankbait Casting","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Shimano Yasei range covers a wide variety of models, each designed around a specific target species or technique.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA Baitcasting Rod Built for Crankbaits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCrankbaits are popular with a lot of anglers for good reason - they're straightforward to fish and consistently produce. A steady retrieve is usually all it takes. You can certainly fish them on a standard spinning rod, but doing so means leaving performance on the table and missing more takes than you should.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA \u003cstrong\u003ededicated crankbait rod\u003c\/strong\u003e like the \u003cem\u003eShimano Yasei AX Crankbait Casting\u003c\/em\u003e makes a real difference. This baitcasting rod was developed specifically for crankbait fishing and shows it in every detail. Compared to a conventional spinning rod with the same casting weight, the \u003cem\u003eYasei AX Crankbait Casting\u003c\/em\u003e is \u003cstrong\u003esofter and absorbs crankbait vibration far more effectively\u003c\/strong\u003e, without sacrificing bite detection. That translates directly into a better lure action and reduces wear on your tackle. On a stiffer rod, vibrations travel almost unchecked straight into the reel and, over time, put its internal components under unnecessary stress - particularly when you're fishing braid, which has no stretch and transmits even the smallest vibration right up the rod.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eimproved hook-up rate\u003c\/strong\u003e is equally important. Because the tip has more give, a predator can get a proper hold of the crankbait before it feels resistance. A crankbait retrieved at a steady pace doesn't stop the moment a fish strikes, and a rod that's too stiff combined with a continuous retrieve will simply pull the lure straight out of the fish's mouth. You might feel the bite, but the hook never finds its mark. With the \u003cem\u003eShimano Yasei AX Crankbait Casting\u003c\/em\u003e, the through action builds pressure gradually rather than abruptly, giving you those crucial extra moments to react before the fish lets go. The rod handles \u003cstrong\u003ecrankbaits weighing 8 - 24 g\u003c\/strong\u003e and suits virtually any species that'll take one - whether that's \u003cstrong\u003eperch, zander, pike, asp or chub\u003c\/strong\u003e. The \u003cem\u003eShimano Yasei AX Crankbait Casting\u003c\/em\u003e is a \u003cstrong\u003estrong option from Shimano's mid-price range\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnologies and Components\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTo achieve these specific characteristics, the \u003cem\u003eShimano Yasei AX Crankbait Casting\u003c\/em\u003e is built around a \u003cem\u003eHigh Modulus Full Carbon\u003c\/em\u003e blank, constructed using \u003cem\u003eHi-Power X\u003c\/em\u003e technology and \u003cem\u003eNano Alloy\u003c\/em\u003e. The tapered blank delivers the \u003cstrong\u003esoft, medium-fast action\u003c\/strong\u003e the design calls for, while \u003cstrong\u003ereduced blank twist\u003c\/strong\u003e ensures pressure is distributed evenly along the full length of the rod. For components, Shimano turned to the \u003cstrong\u003etrusted quality of Fuji\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cem\u003eFuji Alconite K\u003c\/em\u003e rings support overall performance and allow for \u003cstrong\u003elong, accurate casts\u003c\/strong\u003e, while the purpose-designed EVA handle is paired with a \u003cem\u003eFuji TVS\u003c\/em\u003e reel seat. Together, the grip, reel seat and blank give the \u003cem\u003eShimano Yasei Crankbait Casting\u003c\/em\u003e a modern look, a confident feel in the hand and a coherent finish throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications at a Glance:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRod Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCasting Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTransport Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRod Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYasei AX Crankbait Casting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e220 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 - 24 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e112 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e110 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Facts:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBaitcasting rod\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHigh Modulus Full Carbon\u003c\/strong\u003e blank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHi-Power X\u003c\/strong\u003e technology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNano Alloy construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft, medium-fast through action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced blank twist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFuji Alconite K rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFuji TVS reel seat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEVA handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for crankbaits (8 - 24 g)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTarget species: perch, zander, pike, asp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 220 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRod weight: 110 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Shimano","offers":[{"title":"YASAXCR22M \/ 220 cm \/ 8-24 g \/ Two-Piece","offer_id":47424053608794,"sku":"SW35000","price":135.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0548\/9197\/0669\/files\/Shimano-Yasei-Crankbait-Casting-1.jpg?v=1759437664","url":"https:\/\/www.pikeandperch.eu\/products\/shimano-yasei-crankbait-casting","provider":"HechtundBarsch.de","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
