Shimano Dialuna S86ML Spinning Rod

The Shimano Dialuna S86ML is a premium, high-performance inshore spinning rod designed specifically for serious seabass anglers. Part of Shimano’s prestigious JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) lineup, the 2023 evolution of the Dialuna series focuses on three core pillars: Lightness, Sensitivity, and Long-Distance Casting.

Constructed with Shimano's most advanced carbon technologies, the S86ML offers the perfect balance of finesse for working small plugs and the backbone required to land hard-fighting predators.

Core Technologies

Spiral X & Hi-Power X: These flagship carbon construction technologies reinforce the blank from the core to the outer layer. They eliminate blank twist and structural ovalization, resulting in pinpoint casting accuracy and increased power during fights.

Carbon Monocoque Grip: A hollow carbon rear grip that acts as a resonator. It eliminates the need for heavy EVA or cork, transferring every vibration from the lure or a subtle strike directly to the angler's hand.

Ci4+ Reel Seat: Engineered from Shimano’s proprietary carbon-interfused material, providing a lightweight yet incredibly rigid connection between the rod and reel.

Fuji SiC K-Type Guides: Stainless steel frames with SiC inserts ensure smooth line flow, maximum heat dissipation, and tangle-free performance when using thin braided lines.
