Shimano FX XT 270MH Spinning Rod is a really nice entry level spinning rod. It is suitable for use with a wide range of different lures and can be used in both salt and fresh water.
The 2 piece blank is made from a mix of XT30 carbon and glass to give a medium fast action which is both good for casting and also playing your catch.
The rod is finished with a DPS style screw winch reel seat, EVA grips and lined guides which are suitable for braid or nylon lines.
