Powered by Shimano's most advanced tech, OCEA Plugger Big Game gives anglers the upper hand. Spiral-X Core technology lies at the heart of the OCEA Plugger Big Game delivering longer, more accurate casts, with the strength for landing even the largest of tuna.
  • Spiral-X Core: Provides up to 10% more torsional rigidity and up to 15% more compressional rigidity than rods built with standard Spiral X technology. This gives the angler additional casting distance combined with superior accuracy.
  • Hi-Power X: Carbon-wrapped blank construction method used to increase rigidity, strength, and twist resistance
  • X-Guide Touch Free Titanium: Designed to solve common offshore fishing problems with braided lines, like tangles and wind knots. It features a high-frame design and optimized guide size to reduce line slap on the blank during casting. This creates a silky-smooth cast and increases distance. Less contact between the line and the rod also helps maintain line strength. Overall, it reduces line troubles and missed opportunities, making offshore fishing smoother and more enjoyable.

Overview

Powered by Shimano's most advanced rod technologies, the OCEA Plugger BG series offers anglers the upper hand when casting stickbaits or poppers for giant tuna. Shimano's proprietary Spiral-X Core technology lies at the heart of the OCEA Plugger Big Game and enhances Shimano's traditional Spiral X carbon tape construction by utilizing Toray Nanoalloy® technology to provide up to 10% more torsional rigidity and up to 15% more compressional rigidity than rods built with standard Spiral X technology. Combined with Shimano's Hi-Power X technology, OCEA Plugger BG provides anglers with improved rigidity, recovery and overall strength while reducing the rod's weight to deliver enhanced casting distance and accuracy without sacrificing the fish-fighting power needed to land these giant fish. OCEA Plugger BG features a hybrid Shimano X-Guide and Fuji Titanium SiC guide train for improved casting performance and durability. Ergonomic, laser-engraved EVA grips provide comfortable and secure hand placement to help reduce fatigue during long and grueling battles. With its unmatched performance, the OCEA Plugger Big Game series encompasses the tools to cast further, battle tougher and land trophy-class fish.

Hi-Power X

Hi-Power X construction uses diagonally-wrapped carbon tape to form an array of "X" shapes on the rod blank's outermost layer. The width of the tape, its winding angle and the part of the rod being wrapped are fine-tuned according to the target fish species. This manufacturing process allows Shimano to adjust these wraps during construction for precise actions, enhanced overall strength and added twist resistance. In short, Hi-Power X construction delivers sharp and crisp rod control for the angler.

SCREW LOCK JOINT

The SCREW LOCK JOINT achieves increased joint strength and ease of detachment by special machining methods. When twisting the rod sections as it is twisted like a screw, the fixing force increases and the sections are more securely locked on the joint section. When unscrewing, the sections can be easily unlocked by twisting in the opposite direction.

Spiral X Core

Spiral X Core is Shimano's newest and most advanced blank construction technology. By integrating Spiral X carbon tape construction with Toray Nanoalloy® technology, Spiral X Core constructed blanks benefit from up to 10% more torsional rigidity and up to 15% more compressional rigidity than rods built with Spiral X. Shimano is unique to the market by applying by high-strength carbon tape with this unique and patented Spiral X construction.

X GUIDE

The X guide was born from the viewpoint to bring out the potential of blanks to the full. Supporting the guide rings of the tip part is a one-piece structure frame molded with the latest material by 3D technology. Its beautiful shape combines strength with the calculated inclination angle and three-dimensional structure to suppress line entanglement. The tip guides are light and small. In the butt part we have the Aero Titanium X guide which contributes to casting feeling and casting distance. X guide is Shimano's original high performance guide which fused lightness, trouble less, casting performance to higher dimensions.
