Savage Gear Defiance SG4 Inshore Spinning Rod 2.79m 9–42g Extra Fast

Savage Gear Defiance SG4 Inshore 2.79m 9–42g — lightning-fast recovery meets premium sensitivity

This 2.79 m spinning rod blends cutting-edge Reset Accelerator Technology with high-modulus 30T Toray carbon for explosive casts and instant blank recovery when fighting sea bass in coastal shallows.

2X Wrap carbon & Reset Accelerator for extreme responsiveness

The 30T Japanese Toray blank wraps carbon in two directions, delivering exceptional stiffness without extra weight. Reset Accelerator Technology ensures the blank snaps back to neutral in a fraction of a second—perfect for working hard baits, metal lures and soft plastics with rapid twitches and confident hook-sets. At 159 g you'll cast all day without fatigue.

Fuji O stainless-steel K-Type guides & precision EVA handle

Stainless-steel Fuji O K-Type guides (9 including the tip) resist saltwater corrosion and let line glide freely, improving both casting distance and sensitivity. The specially shaped EVA handle offers secure grip even in wet conditions, while the VSS reel seat locks your reel firmly in place. Ships competition-ready in a protective rod bag.
