Designed by Shimano New Zealand with the intent to create an affordable rod range that exceeds performance expectations of kiwi fisherman while offering light-tackle anglers with rod options that cover a broad range of popular fishing applications. The 24 Divergex spin rods feature a durable and responsive composite blank construction coupled with technique specific actions that have been fine-tuned specifically for New Zealand species and conditions. Quality componentry has been used throughout the build with Seaguide Zirconium guides, Shimano reel seats, and durable EVA grips.

SIGNIFICANT EVOLUTION WITH THE LATEST FEATURES
The new ULTEGRA is the ultimate evolution of one of Shimano's most popular mid-priced reels. The combination of HAGANE Gear, MicroModule II, X-Ship and Silent Drive ensures the very best winding performance, even under pressure, with faultless smoothness that enhances the fishing experience.

X-Protect technology prevents water getting into the moving parts of the line roller and roller clutch, extending longevity and delivering failsafe performance. For distance casting, the Long Stroke Spool design and AR-C Spool enables the line to flow more freely during the cast and the addition of a CI4+ Body reduces overall weight for less fatigue when fishing for extended periods.

FEATURES

• HAGANE: is a Shimano reel design concept created to withstand continual use and extreme abuse. HAGANE is an innovation with built-in toughness and durability that works alongside Shimano's precision engineering. HAGANE is for all anglers.
• HAGANE GEAR: With amazing strength and durability, the HAGANE Gear is at the very heart of most Shimano reels. Shimano, through the application of state-of-the-art technologies, gives anglers the long-lasting smoothness and enjoyment that is felt when anglers first use a reel, over and over again. No cutting work is applied to the teeth of the drive gear during fabrication; instead, the entire surface is calculated in minute detail by a special 3D design and then formed by Shimano's cold-forging technology. The result is assured resilience. HAGANE Gear is the result of Shimano's endless pursuit for durability — this strength and power of forged metal continue to represent the fundamental concept of Shimano reels.
