Abu Garcia Beast X 802 H 2.44m 30-100g 200g Fast

Abu Garcia Beast X 802 H — Built for Big Pike Trolling

The Abu Garcia Beast X 802 H is a dedicated 2.44 m trolling casting rod engineered specifically for pike fishing with planer boards and XXL lures. Its fast-action 30T carbon blank combines a slightly softer tip for cushioning hard strikes with a powerful backbone that converts bites into solid hooksets, even in windy conditions.

Fast Taper Action for Planer Boards

The 802 H features a fast-action blank with a slightly softer tip section that absorbs shock when trolling large lures and planer boards. The strong backbone ensures you maintain control during the fight and helps drive hooks home on powerful pike strikes. This specialized taper has been refined through extensive testing by professional pike anglers across Europe.

Trolling-Specific Design Details

Every component is optimized for trolling: the ergonomic KCS-type reel seat, shortened rear grip for more in-boat space, high-density full EVA handle that resists damage in rod holders, and a hook keeper sized for XXL lure hooks. Seaguide XOG stainless steel guides prevent line tangles during trolling runs.
