Shimano Tallus Rods

Constructed of Shimano's TC4 blanks, the Shimano Tallus Blue Water rods give fishermen and women a lighter and more powerful rod at manageable sizes and affordable prices. Each rod in the series was designed to be suitable with PowerPro braid to provide incredible pulling power and comfort.
