If you don’t, or won’t accept compromise in your fishing gear, you’ll immediately be attracted to the sensational Poison Adrena. It’s Shimano’s flagship spinning range, which say’s a lot, and you’ll immediately understand why when you see and feel this remarkable work of art. The lightness, sensitivity and hidden power are stunning, but it‘s the rods ability to recover so quickly when fishing that really stands out. Beautifully crisp and reassuringly predictable when casting, working lures and playing fish, the Poison Adrena takes performance to a completely different level of excellence.
Showcasing Shimano premium rod technologies, including the latest UBD (Ultimate Blank Design) philosophy, the Poison Adrena excels in all departments. The incorporation of Spiral X Core construction within the high modulus carbon blank provides the Poison Adrena with unparalleled strength, without sacrificing lightness, responsiveness or sensitivity. To further enhance performance a Full Carbon Monocoque handle, combined with an ergonomic Perfection CI4+ Reel Seat XT on casting models and Perfection CI4+ Reel Seat on spinning models, provides the ultimate lightweight ergonomic combination for maximum feedback. And as you would expect on a rod with such a high pedigree, Poison Adrena rods feature premium X guides to offer the ultimate in line management.
