Quick take

A 10-foot moderate-fast surf rod with graphite composite construction for saltwater beach fishing.

This 10-foot, two-piece surf rod has medium power and a moderate-fast action, paired with a 12-20 lb line rating and a 1-4 oz lure range. It carries eight Fuji Alconite guides and a graphite composite blank, built for casting from the beach. A fit for anglers working medium-sized saltwater fish from shore.

  • Striped bass and redfish along sandy shores
  • Anglers fishing light to medium lures

Skip if

  • You need extreme casting distance

Strengths
