Hearty Rise Skywalker Popping Spinning Rod 2.45m 30–120g

Hearty Rise Skywalker Popping Rod — Travel-Ready Power for Offshore Targets

The Hearty Rise Skywalker Popping Rod is a purpose-built offshore spinning rod designed for anglers who chase tuna, giant trevally (GT), and other large pelagic species in exotic saltwater destinations — and need their gear to fit in a suitcase.

Built for Big Water, Designed to Travel

At 2.45 m assembled and just 66 cm in transport length, this 4-piece rod slips easily into checked luggage without sacrificing the backbone needed for serious topwater work. The blank is rated at 40 lbs of raw power, giving you the authority to turn hard-running fish away from structure and keep pressure on throughout a long fight.

Fuji Alconite KW Guides for Smooth, Reliable Casting

The full Fuji Alconite KW ring set delivers low-friction line flow and excellent heat resistance — important when you're working large surface lures with heavy braided line at distance. The guides are fitted to handle the stresses of repetitive popping and walking-the-dog retrieves across a full day on the water.
