Quick take
Three-piece IM8 carbon surf rod with 4000 size reel, designed for saltwater species in rocky and wave-heavy conditions.
This is a 9-foot, three-piece surf spinning combo built on an IM8 carbon blank with a medium-heavy power. It comes paired with a 4000-size spinning reel, and the split-down design packs small for travel. It suits anglers working beaches and rocks for redfish, striped bass, flounder, tarpon or snook.
