Built with Shimano's lightweight TC4 blank construction, this rod helps reduce the physical strain of handling heavy tackle and battling powerful gamefish. Its slightly slower action allows the blank to bend more progressively under load, helping anglers apply steady pressure while minimizing fatigue during extended fights. Featuring a conventional ring-guide configuration rather than roller guides, the Tallus offers a versatile setup for targeting tuna, swordfish, grouper, and other large saltwater species. With its slick butt design and angler-focused construction, this rod is well suited for offshore anglers looking for reliable performance when taking on hard-fighting fish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e    \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTC4 Blank Construction\u003c\/b\u003e - Reduces overall rod weight to improve comfort during extended offshore fishing sessions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eProgressive Rod Action\u003c\/b\u003e - Slightly slower action allows the blank to flex gradually under load, helping anglers maintain steady pressure on powerful fish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eConventional Ring Guides\u003c\/b\u003e - Features a standard ring-guide configuration for smooth line passage without the use of roller guides.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSlick Butt Design\u003c\/b\u003e - Provides a smooth butt section suited for use in rod holders during offshore fishing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eReduced Angler Fatigue\u003c\/b\u003e - Lightweight construction and a more forgiving action help make demanding fights more manageable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eVersatile Offshore Applications\u003c\/b\u003e - Designed for a variety of offshore fishing techniques targeting large gamefish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBig Gamefish Capability\u003c\/b\u003e - Developed for pursuing tuna, swordfish, grouper, and other powerful saltwater species.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e     \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eReady For Offshore Challenges\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEquip your offshore setup with the Shimano Tallus Ring Guide Slick Butt Trolling Rod, combining lightweight TC4 construction, progressive action, and conventional guides for dependable performance against powerful gamefish.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shimano","offers":[{"title":"6'6\" \/ Heavy \/ Fast \/ 30-65 lb.","offer_id":42006517383301,"sku":"TLC66HSBBLA","price":329.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/1342\/1957\/files\/Shimano-Tallus-Ring-Guide-Slick-Butt-Trolling-Rod-66-vertical.webp?v=1793103953","url":"https:\/\/mudhole.com\/en-ca\/products\/shimano-tallus-ring-guide-slick-butt-trolling-rod","provider":"Mud Hole Custom Tackle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
