Shimano Sustain CX Spinning Rod

Sustain is an exclusive series of spinning rods developed for predator anglers who demand maximum versatility, precision and performance. With a wide range of models covering everything from inland to coastal saltwater fishing – including specialized Distance and Power Game models – Sustain delivers a rare combination of lightness, sensitivity and raw strength.

For those who prefer a spinning reel for your bait fishing, Sustain is a well-thought-out and purposeful choice. The shorter models with fast action provide outstanding precision and direct response when fishing with twitchbaits and softbaits. The slightest movement is effectively transferred to the bait and gives a perfect presentation - crucial when the bites are cautious.

The Distance models are developed to maximize casting distance and accuracy with wobblers, spoons and twitchbaits. Perfect when you need to reach hunting fish at longer distances and effectively cover large areas.

At the other end of the spectrum you will find the Power Game models - powerful rods with impressive backbone and control. These are built to handle larger baits and metal jigs and to tame really strong predators with full control.

All models have a practical two-piece construction that makes them easy to transport without compromising on feel or performance.

Advanced carbon fiber technology for uncompromising performance

The core of Sustain is High Modulus Full Carbon blades, reinforced with Spiral X Carbon technology from Shimano. This advanced design minimizes unwanted blade twist, improves casting precision and optimizes power transfer – providing reliable performance even in demanding conditions.

The rod series is equipped with Fuji K-Type Alconite guides that provide smooth line guidance and high wear resistance, even when using thin braided lines. The lightweight and responsive Shimano Custom Ci4+ reel seat ensures perfect integration with the reel and high comfort during long fishing sessions. The ergonomic split EVA handle provides a secure and balanced grip in all weather conditions.
