The Shimano Descent Type J 5'8" PE2 Slow Jig Rod is purpose-built for slow pitch jigging, delivering exceptional control, sensitivity and lifting power for targeting snapper, kingfish and other reef species. The lightweight blank is designed to maximise jig action while giving you the backbone needed to turn hard-fighting fish.

Featuring Shimano's spiral-wrapped guide configuration, the line transitions smoothly underneath the blank during the fight, reducing rod twist and improving stability under load. Combined with premium Fuji components and a responsive one-piece construction, the Descent Type J offers outstanding balance and feel for all-day jigging sessions.
