Shimano Zodias 2026

ZODIAS, trained in fields around the world, has been updated to further improve actual fishing performance. Highly balanced design for a nimble feel, HI-POWER X construction for improved casting accuracy and power transmission. CARBON MONOCOQUE clearly conveys changes in the water.

By carefully reviewing each of these elements and integrating them at a higher level, we have refined the rod to the level of perfection required of modern bass fishing rods. We have created a reliable rod that responds to all kinds of situations by honestly pursuing its basic performance.

Updated cosmetics & modernised componentry - The new Zodias carries a refreshed aesthetic. Sleeker, more premium look. A design based on black and silver that goes with any Shimano reels.
