Crucial has you covered With the introduction of the Shimano Crucial series last year, we turned the dreams of bass and walleye anglers into reality. Offered in both spinning and baitcasting models, these intensely designed rods are light and responsive yet powerful. They have been created to handle a diverse range of techniques, everything from drop shotting and shaking to fishing with crankbaits and swimbaits. The crankbait rods are especially unique in that they were engineered using Shimano TC4 Construction material for a sturdy backbone and a light, soft tip, which makes it easy for the fish to inhale the bait - and for you to set the hook.
