Penn Tidal XR Beach Caster Sliding RS Spinning Rod 4.2m 113–225g

Penn Tidal XR Beach Caster 4.2m — versatile sliding reel seat for extreme casting distance

The Penn Tidal XR Beach Caster with sliding reel seat (RS) combines tournament-level casting performance with exceptional flexibility. Whether you prefer spinning or multiplier reels, the adjustable seat lets you position your reel exactly where you want it on the rear grip for optimal balance and control.

Built for extreme casting distance

The 30/40T carbon blank with X-Wrap construction delivers the backbone you need to launch heavy leads and rigs far beyond the breakers. A tubular tip section provides excellent loading characteristics during the cast, while the fast action transfers power efficiently through the blank. Saltwater-resistant zirconium K-type guides withstand the demands of beach fishing and reduce friction for maximum distance.

Sensitive bite detection in surf conditions

Despite its power, the Tidal XR features a sensitive tip section that telegraphs bites clearly, even in choppy water or strong currents. The 4.2m length gives you the reach to keep line above surf and the leverage to control big fish in heavy conditions. At 871g, the rod remains balanced enough for all-day sessions without fatigue.

Choose the right variant

The Tidal XR Beach Caster sliding reel seat series is available in two lengths to match your fishing style and conditions:

• 4.2m (14ft) | 113–225g | 871g — maximum casting distance and line control in big surf, powerful enough for the heaviest rigs and larger species like cod, bass, and rays

• 3.9m (13ft) | 113–225g | 818g — slightly shorter for tighter casting spots or when you prefer a more compact setup with similar power
