Spiral Armor uses spiral-shaped carbon fibers woven into the blank, creating exceptional strength and stiffness while keeping the rod lightweight. This technology allows the Battalion Solid Tuna to handle the extreme demands of big tuna fishing—loads up to 100 lb test—while weighing only 546 g. The result is a rod that doesn't exhaust you during extended fights.
The K-frame guides are designed for spinning reels (fixed-spool reels), which are common in European saltwater fishing. The separate LR model features lowrider guides optimized for conventional reels (round baitcasting reels). Choose based on your preferred reel type: K for spinning, LR for conventional.
This rod is specifically designed for drifting and broumé fishing—traditional tuna fishing methods where you drift a live or dead bait with the current, allowing the rod's responsive action to detect strikes and control the fight. The 1.84 m (6 ft) length and powerful 50-100 lb line rating make it ideal for boat fishing targeting trophy-class tuna and large saltwater species.
During long battles with powerful tuna, a firm grip is essential. The high-density EVA handle provides superior grip comfort and security even when wet or covered in sea spray. This prevents hand fatigue and slipping, critical for maintaining control when fighting trophy fish that can weigh hundreds of kilograms.
The battalion Solid Tuna is a one-piece rod with a transport length of 1.84 m (6 ft), making it compact for a saltwater tuna rod. While one-piece rods provide superior strength and sensitivity compared to multi-piece designs, the 1.84 m length and 546 g weight make it manageable to transport and handle on a boat, though you'll want protective storage.

The PENN Battalion Solid Tuna is purpose-built for big tuna fishing in saltwater conditions, with a responsive action that balances power and control during extended fights.

The high-density EVA handle provides a firm, secure grip during intense battles. Fuji stainless steel guide frames with Alconite rings ensure smooth line movement and durability in harsh saltwater environments. The K-frame version is designed for spinning reels (fixed-spool), while an LR model variant with lowrider guides is available for conventional reels.
Spiral Armor Solid Carbon technology creates a blank with superior stiffness-to-weight ratio, allowing the rod to handle the substantial 50-100 lb line rating while remaining manageable at 546 g. This strength-to-weight efficiency is essential when drifting large baits and fighting trophy tuna.
Designed specifically for drifting and broumé techniques targeting large tuna species in saltwater conditions. The 1.84 m length and powerful loading make it well-suited for boat fishing where control and sustained power are critical.
