Description
Technology
The Asquith series is the culmination of global cooperation in design, materials, and manufacturing techniques. Developed and hand-finished in Woodland, Washington and rolled in Shimano’s Spiral X production facility in Kumamoto, Japan, it boasts superb power transfer from tip to hand, quick recovery, and increased sensitivity. Designed by world casting champion Steve Rajeff, the Asquith is an exploratory step into the future of rod manufacturing technology. With fast actions, generous power levels, titanium guides, and exceptionally light swing weight, all rods in the series excel in situations where developing high line speed and making precise casts are key to success.
