The Shimano Torium Jigger Overhead Reel is purpose-built for offshore anglers targeting hard-fighting pelagic and reef species with mechanical jigging techniques. Combining high-speed retrieves with strong cranking power and a rigid Hagane Body, the Torium Jigger is engineered to perform under extreme offshore pressure.
