Balzer 71 Grad North Boat Inliner Rod 1.95m 100–300g 245g 69cm

Balzer 71 Grad North Boat Inliner Rod — Inline Guide System for Smooth Deep-Sea Pirking

The Balzer 71 Grad North Boat Inliner is a 3-piece travel rod built for boat fishing, featuring an internal (inline) line guide that protects your line and delivers a clean, responsive action when pirking or fishing with natural baits.

Internal Line Routing Protects Your Line

The inline (inliner) design routes the line through the inside of the rod blank rather than over external rings. This shields the line from wind, salt spray, and tangles, reduces wear, and contributes to a smooth, even bend throughout the blank — particularly useful when working heavy pirk lures or weighted natural bait rigs in deep water from a boat.

Premium Components for Hard Use

The blank is built from High Modulus IM-12 carbon fibre, keeping weight down to 245 g while maintaining the backbone needed for casting weights of 100–300 g. A FUJI reel seat ensures secure reel mounting, underwound Titanium SiC rings handle braided and mono lines without wear, and the split Duplon grip with aluminium cross-end cap rounds off a well-specified boat rod.
