Palms Shore Gun Evolv Spinning Rods

Description

Internationally leading company Palms has developed a series of amazing Spinning rods, for technical lure fishing, which meet all the necessary specifications of the basic rod for the casual Mediterranean spinner. The Shore Gun Evo series by Palms does not need any recommendation since it considered to be common ground for excellence amongst experienced spinners around the world. They represent the flagship of Japanese company Palms and it stands as one of the best selling lines for years.

Taking a closer look at the technical features of the Shore Gun Evo Spinning rods, one will be impressed with the value that these rods have hidden in their blank.

Their blank in particular has been manufactured with the X-Carbon Technology that offers many benefits, amongst which is the necessary progressiveness response in order to handle the jigs and to easily tackle fighting prey. The X-Carbon Technology is an effective reinforcement system, that helps the rod improve its performance, by cross blending carbon fibers, in an X shape. Along with weight reduction, the rigidity of the blank, and its twisting power towards any direction has been increased. At the same time they have the ability to place solid hooks and have such strength in their blank capable to bring ashore the strongest fish. The rod blanks, made of this technology, are simply flawless, sturdy and resilient.

In addition each and every Shore Gun Evo rod, has an original set up of Fuji-K Tangle Free guides – against wind knots – and its set-up is capable of making long casts and transmit our orders to our lure with great accuracy. It is sensitive to the point of letting us know, at any time, what is happening in the other side of our rig. The rings are Fuji Sic Guide, with great resistance against saltwater corrosion.

The SFSGS 96ML is a mainstream model that can easily become our basic tool for Spinning. It belongs in the Seabass category which – if we interpret correctly the Japanese terminology – means we can use it both for Basses and the European Barracuda. Lets not forget that the Japanese Bass may be beast of a fish, but many times can be easily tricked with finesse techniques. For fishing Seabass one must invest time and effort in technical fishing and have a rod of certain caliber in terms of strength in hooking and battle handling. Therefore this Palms rod is totally what we need for the most important fish in the Mediterranean Spinning, mostly for big Basses and European Baraccudas. It can cast lures between 10 to 30 grams, matched with braid from 0.6 to 1.5 PE, it is amazingly light and its length is 2.90m. it is an ideal rod, flexible for multiple fields, from beaches and high rocks to ports and estuaries. Its length makes it perfect for long casts, against waves, while Palms suggests it can be used even for wadding at difficult depths and fields, such as currents in river mouths.

Model 96M offers to the angler a slightly larger range in the Casting Weight, while the 103M rod enables the angler to use large lures, such as the DUO Flyer 200, the Seaspin Mommotti, the Rapala Max Rap, etc.

We have tested this rod, almost at the limit of its casting weight. It has responded perfectly with 30 gr Jerkbaits. It performs well with Minnows at about 11 cm and with smaller Jerkbaits and at the same time it offers a very smooth response towards soft lures, with its fast tip and its progressive power, a very important feature in the Sea Bass game. The length of the Palms Shore Gun Evolv Spinning made it so easier for us in difficult rocky, steep coastlines with its easy and long casts, at the same time it had no problem to transmit back to our palm, the tiniest bite.

During the battles with Basses and European Barracudas, two words will come into mind of even the most specialized anglers, in reference to this Palms rod: it is strong and sensitive.

This is a rod for technical fishing, a basic tool for the Mediterranean angler signed by leading Japanese company Palms.

Original Setting of K Series Guides

All models have K series guides as per their original settings. By evaluating their optimal size, number and arrangement for each game style, Palms has achieved a balance that allows the full utilization of the performance of the blank. It offers a comfortable feel during casting, long casting performance, and linear handling that is free from useless vibration for rod work. The Palms rods incorporate a pack of accessories dedicated to attention of every detail .

SiC Ring Guide

All Palm models use SiC ring guides, that protect your braid against wearing out and offer long-lasting performance, even under severe usage conditions .

Technology X Material

The Shore Gun Evolv blank utilizes a high-elasticity material, centered around the butt section. The particular blank design technology, draws out the benefits of the highly elastic material, offering a sharp cast feeling and further improvement in long-distance performance. They all raise the upper limit of the torque of the rod.
