Quick take
Fast-action spinning rod sized for casting lures at seabass from shore or boat in saltwater conditions.
The Major Craft First Cast FCS-962M is a 9.6 ft medium-power spinning rod with a fast action, built for casting lures in the surf and from rocks. It handles lures from about 15 to 42 grams and line from 8 to 20 lb. A split cork grip and two-piece graphite blank make it easier to carry to the shore.
