{"product_id":"tailwalk-micro-shore-jigging-ssd-89","title":"Micro Shore Jigging SSD 89","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe middle rod of three, and the one that probably makes the most sense of the range for the fishing we do. These came in as a fairly niche thing and I never really pushed them, which I regret, because bass fishing has moved exactly the way they suit: lighter lures, closer range, and a bit more fun out of it. At 8'9\" you get enough length to cover water without losing the close control, and the grip is a touch longer than you'd expect on a light rod, because it's built to be cast. It's technically a rod designed for small metals, but the action makes it just as good with light soft plastics on a jighead or a small top water. It isn't stiff and steely like so much else, and that softer, cushioning tip is more forgiving when a fish takes on a straight retrieve. If you fish the estuaries and fancy dropping down a bit, this is where I'd start. On the rating: fair for what it's built for. It's a genuine 20g with a metal casting jig, but that's a jig figure, not a plug one - put a plug or soft plastic on it and it won't take much more than 10-12g. Set against a typical 20g sea bass rod it'll feel a touch lighter in the hand, so read it as optimistic-to-fair rather than a straight match.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tailwalk","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56145722868038,"sku":"4516508162646","price":229.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0987\/9299\/7190\/files\/4516508162639-sp1_9b7f92c3-c6d5-4ba5-8908-bc8b578548d7.jpg?v=1777459661","url":"https:\/\/artoffishing.co.uk\/products\/tailwalk-micro-shore-jigging-ssd-89","provider":"Art of Fishing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
