Shimano Compre Fishing Rod - Read Before You Buy!
The Shimano Compre fishing rod is definitely a must have and it is at the top class fishing rod. It has high quality components that I am going to cover. I am not going to give you bias, just my personal opinion on the Shimano Compre. It has a fair price from $89.99 - $99.99. There have been many new models inside the Compre series that were released recently.
Plus Features
You have to give Shimano two thumbs-up for the design of this rod. This rod definitely does have a beautiful, shiny finish to it. The new, black finish to this rod is a change from the old maroon finish and has a nice appeal to it. The new Fuji concept guides are a great addition to it to make the cast more efficient and the line stay more parallel to the rod. This rod is very sensitive, thanks to the top end IM-8 graphite construction. The spinning models have exposed blanks on the fore grip and the bait casters have exposed blanks in front of the trigger for more sensitivity. I have been able to feel tiny minnows nip at my lures with this rod.
Here is a complete list of the features:
• IM-8 Graphite Construction (high quality, doesn't get much better)
• New Concept Fuji Hardloy guides (same here)
• Select models feature an Exposed Blank on either fore grip (spinning) or trigger (casting). (a really nice improvement!)
• Grade A cork handles
• Gudebrod thread wrapped guides for added strength
• Convenient hook keeper positioned on the side of the rod
• Lightweight cork composite butt cap (a great new feature)
• Limited Lifetime Warranty (on all Shimano rods)
Minuses
The only thing that I would like to see in this rod would be exposed blanks on the rear grips in the bait casting line up. The price may be a little steep for angler just starting out, but for the serious anglers, this truly is a good rod and is one of my favorites.
