Condition: Excellent, well-cared-for condition. Supplied in its original rod bag.

The Shimano Perfect 11’ Specimen Rod is a robust, functional tool built for the specialist angler. With a 2.25lb test curve, it sits in that "sweet spot" of power—heavy enough to stop a barbel in a fast current or a large tench heading for lilies, yet sensitive enough to offer a rewarding playing action.

The shorter 11ft length is a specific advantage for those fishing tight swims under overhanging trees or navigating overgrown riverbanks where a standard 12ft rod is too cumbersome.

Key Features & Benefits:

• 11ft Length: Provides superior manoeuvrability in confined swims and improved accuracy when casting at shorter ranges.

• 2.25lb Test Curve: Offers a powerful backbone for controlling strong fish, combined with a progressive action to prevent hook pulls.

• Specialist Application: Purpose-built for barbel and tench, but equally effective for surface carp fishing or heavy-duty feeder work.

• Durable Build: Constructed to the dependable standards Shimano is known for, featuring reliable guides and a secure reel seat.

• Classic Aesthetics: A no-nonsense, understated finish that prioritises performance over fashion.

This is a dependable, all-round specialist rod that remains highly sought after for its practical design and proven reliability on the bank.
