Manufacturer's description
Four standout items that enhance the appeal of flatfish fishing.

An extreme game facing fish in a world of finely honed senses. The brand Stefano, which has poured the pinnacle of Shimano's technology into serious battles with flatfish, is equipped with a high-sensitivity carbon solid Toughtech tip that has been reinforced with ultra-fine carbon tape to become a Hyper Power X Solid, serving as an antenna to detect the presence of flatfish. Additionally, the tip features Shimano's original high-performance guide, X-guide, which enhances lightness, trouble-free operation, and casting performance. Furthermore, the reel seat adopts the X-Seat front trigger, pursuing lightweight and operability.

The tip is the life of a flatfish rod. A dedicated tip with excellent visual and tactile sensitivity.

The part that can be called the life or face of a flatfish rod is the tip. The flatfish bite signals are very diverse. They convey expressions from large, clear movements to subtle vibrations as 'visual sensitivity,' and also transmit 'tactile sensitivity' such as vibrations from the line rubbing or anomalies, and sometimes even the presence of fish. The characteristics and performance of the tip greatly influence the potential of the flatfish rod.

In Stefano SS, the tip uses a highly sensitive carbon solid Toughtech, and by further tightening the tip with Hyper Power X, which is a Hyper Power X Solid, it achieves a lightweight, highly resistant to twisting tip with excellent visual and tactile sensitivity.

The guide determines whether the tip's potential is realized or suppressed.

If the tip is the life of a flatfish rod, then the guide mounted on the tip greatly affects the rod's performance and comfort during actual fishing. If the tip guide is heavy, operability and feeling worsen, and if the line is prone to tangling and hard to come off, there is a risk of damage.

X-guides, born from the perspective of rod manufacturers, are Shimano's original high-performance guides that fuse lightness, trouble-free operation, and casting performance to fully bring out the latent potential of the blank. The integrated frame formed by 3D technology supports the guide ring, and the calculated three-dimensional structure suppresses line tangles while also achieving good line release.

Whether to utilize or suppress the excellent tip depends on the guide. An inconspicuous but key part for flatfish fishing is the X-guide mounted on the Stefano SS.

FEATURE (Features)

Toughtech tip

A carbon solid tip with unprecedented strength achieved by reviewing the material composition and manufacturing process. Compared to Toughtech α, it features higher sensitivity and rigidity.

X-Seat Front Trigger + Fitting Support CI4+

A new lightweight reel seat that combines the benefits of the trigger seat and Stefano series seat. The trigger located at the front of the seat allows you to hook your index finger or middle finger, supporting the reel with the index finger, enabling extremely precise millimeter-level rig operation. It also increases hold strength and makes winding more comfortable. The stability of casting is improved, and it is less likely to slip even when hands are wet, reducing finger strain caused by traditional triggers. This is a revolutionary reel seat that changes the dimension of the entire flatfish game.

X-guide (tip section)

Original guide that brings out the rod's inherent performance.

X-guides, created to bring out the potential of the blank, combine lightness, trouble-free operation, and high-level casting performance with strength. The integrated frame formed by 3D technology supports the guide ring, and the calculated three-dimensional structure suppresses line tangles while also providing good line release.
