Penn Tidal Telescopic Surf Spinning Rod 4.2m 160g

Penn Tidal Telescopic Surf 4.2m 160g – Compact surf rod for long-distance casting

The Penn Tidal Telescopic Surf 4.2 m 160 g combines powerful casting performance with easy transport. The five-piece telescopic design packs down to just 199 cm, making it ideal for anglers who need a full-length surf rod without the bulk.

Extreme casting distance with 30T carbon

The 30T carbon blank delivers the backbone and responsiveness needed for long-distance surfcasting. Its fast action loads efficiently on the cast, while the slim profile cuts through wind to maximize distance. Despite its strength, the rod weighs just 496 g, reducing fatigue during extended sessions.

Sensitive tip shows every bite

The Sensitip registers even the slightest takes, giving you a clear visual indication when fish mouth the bait. Combined with the SW Proof stainless steel K-type guides, the tip transmits bites reliably while standing up to saltwater corrosion. The full-grip handle and Japanese X-Shrink casting grip provide secure control during forceful casts and when battling fish in the surf.
