Penn Tidal X Telescopic Surf Solid Tip Spinning Rod 4.2m 0–140g

Penn Tidal X Telescopic Surf Solid Tip 4.2m 140g — Pack Small, Cast Far

The Penn Tidal X Telescopic Surf Solid Tip 4.2m 140g combines tournament-level casting power with go-anywhere convenience. This 6-piece telescopic surf rod collapses to just 146 cm, fits in any car boot, yet delivers the sensitivity and distance serious surf anglers demand.

Fast-Action Carbon Blank with X-Wrap Technology

Built from 30T carbon with Penn's X-Wrap reinforcement, the blank resists twisting during the cast for improved accuracy and exceptional casting distance. The fast action loads quickly and transfers energy efficiently, while the slim profile cuts through wind. Despite its travel-friendly design, this rod casts as precisely as traditional two-piece surf rods.

Solid Carbon Tip Registers Every Bite

The sensitive solid carbon tip section telegraphs even the lightest touches in surf conditions. Unlike hollow tips, the solid construction provides reliable bite detection in currents and wave action, ensuring you stay connected to what's happening at the terminal tackle. The tip's durability also withstands the rigours of beach fishing—no fragile hollow sections to worry about during transport or when propping the rod.

Choose the Right Variant

Penn offers three Tidal X Telescopic Surf Solid Tip models to match your target species and beach conditions:

• 4.2m 160g (5 sections, 160 cm transport) – rougher conditions, bigger baits, heavier leads for tope, conger, smoothhounds; slightly longer transport length
