Shimano GLF B Casting Inshore Rods

Quite possibly the most versatile series of inshore rods within the lineup, Shimano designed the all-new GLF B series of rods with actions built specifically for anglers tossing artificial lures or live bait on the Gulf Coast. Now featuring DIAFLASH technology — diagonally-wrapped carbon tape forming an array of “X” shapes on the butt section — to deliver an advantage during powerful casts and tough battles by preventing rod twist and enhancing hook-setting power. The casting and spinning rods within the GLF B series feature a shorter butt section — ideal for wading anglers — and boast moderate actions to prevent pulled hooks from soft-mouthed trout. The series features a Shimano Custom Reel Seat and highlights a Hybrid EVA + Rubber Cork Grip for all-day comfort and fishability. Built upon a legendary name, the all-new GLF B series adds enhanced Shimano technology to a series with a strong reputation for inshore performance.

Technologies:

• DIAFLASH technology is a reinforced structure that prevents twisting of the butt section for an added advantage during powerful casts and high-intensity battles. Engineers diagonally wrap carbon tape in opposite directions on the outermost layer of the butt section to form an array of "X" shapes. DIAFLASH minimizes energy loss from excess flexing in the rod butt section and enhances pulling power when it matters most.
