SHIMANO Sojourn Series SJS50UL2B Spinning Rod, 5 ft OAL, Graphite, Black/Red

The Sojourn line of spinning rods offers anglers a great rod with a custom look and performance-minded features. The comfortable cork rear grip and EVA foam fore grip contrasts beautifully against the rod's black and red color scheme. All of the Sojourn rods feature aluminum oxide guides to reduce line friction and increase line flow compared to traditional stainless steel guides commonly used in rods within this price point. The blanks are crafted through graphite composite construction, making the Sojourn rods extremely light and super durable. These rods are offered in several popular actions to meet the demands of all skill levels of anglers. The medium and medium-heavy rods are great all-around fishing rods for beginners and budget-conscious anglers alike who are looking to fish for a variety of species. The ultralight and medium-light powers are excellent options for those looking to fish for panfish or trout and the heavy-action rods are an ideal option for anglers chasing catfish and pike. If compactness for transport or storage is important, there are also several two-piece options available within the Sojourn line of spinning rods.
