Abu Garcia Beast X2 Casting Rod 842 Xhp 2.54m 40–140g Fast

Abu Garcia Beast X 842 XHP – cast big lures and land trophy pike

The Abu Garcia Beast X Casting Rod 842 XHP delivers the power and reliability serious pike anglers demand. With a fast taper 30T carbon blank, this 2.54 m two-piece rod handles lures from 40 to 140 g and excels when targeting large predators with oversized baits.

Built for heavy-duty pike fishing

The Beast X 842 XHP combines a fast action with extra-heavy-plus power, letting you drive hooks home on hard strikes and control big fish in open water or near structure. Seaguide XOG stainless steel anti-tangle guides reduce line friction and stand up to repeated casting, while the ergonomic KCS-type reel seat and high-density EVA handle grips ensure all-day comfort even during long sessions.

15% lighter, faster, and more responsive

This second-generation Beast X blank is more than 15% lighter than its predecessor yet remains strong and reliable. At just 258 g, the rod reduces fatigue without sacrificing backbone. The fast taper design and lighter guide train improve sensitivity and casting performance, so you feel every bump and place your lure exactly where you want it.
