Product Details and Uses

Shimano Stradic Seabass Spinning | 7’2″ 5-25g 1+1pc X Fast

The Ultimate Precision Tool for Finesse Seabass Hunting.

For the angler who specializes in light lure tactics and technical precision, the Shimano Stradic Seabass 7’2″ (5-25g) is a masterclass in sensitivity. At Gerry’s Fishing, we find this model to be the “finesse king” of the range. Designed specifically for boat anglers who need to work lighter lures with surgical accuracy, it features the iconic Stradic white finish, making it the perfect aesthetic and performance match for your Stradic spinning reels.

The Extra Fast (X Fast) action is the heart of this rod. It is incredibly responsive, allowing you to feel every vibration of a small hardbait or the slightest “tick” of a soft plastic on the bottom. Built on a High Modulus Carbon blank and reinforced with Diaflash technology in the butt section, the rod remains lightweight and nimble while possessing the hidden strength to control a hard-fighting Bass in a tide.

The 1+1 (Put-In) construction—where the blank fits into the handle—ensures the rod retains the raw sensitivity and unbroken curve of a one-piece rod, providing a direct connection between you and the fish.

Where to Use This Rod

Shallow Estuaries & Salt Marshes: The 5-25g rating is perfect for flicking small surface sliders or shallow-diving minnows into narrow channels and over oyster beds.
Clear Water Finesse: When the water is crystal clear and the Bass are “spooky,” this rod allows you to use smaller, more natural lures and lighter lines without losing casting distance.
Soft Plastic “Washing”: Ideal for unweighted or lightly weighted soft plastics (3-4 inch paddletails), allowing the Extra Fast tip to work the lure naturally through the water column.
Vertical “Micro-Jigging”: While primarily a spinning model, the X-Fast action is excellent for light vertical jigging in shallower water (up to 15m) using small metal jigs for Bass or even large Perch in brackish water.

Key Features

Extra Fast Action: Delivers instant hook sets and unparalleled feedback, ensuring you are in total control of your lure at all times.
Diaflash Technology: Carbon cross-wraps in the butt section minimize blank twist, maximizing power transfer and providing the backbone needed to turn a big fish.
High Modulus Carbon Blank: Feather-light and incredibly strong, offering the “live” feel that premium lure rods are known for.
Premium Fuji Components: Fitted with Fuji Alconite guides for smooth, friction-free casting and a secure Fuji VSS reel seat.
Boat-Ready Ergonomics: Features modern, wipe-clean split-grip EVA handles that offer a comfortable and secure grip in wet, salty conditions.
Iconic Aesthetic: The signature Stradic White finish provides a high-end, elegant look on the water.
