Savage Gear Defiance SG8 Inshore Spinning Rod 2.9m 10–45g

Savage Gear Defiance SG8 Inshore 2.90m 10–45g — versatile power for seabass and inshore predators

The 2.90m variant balances exceptional casting distance with pinpoint accuracy, making it your go-to rod for targeting seabass across varied coastal conditions.

Extreme sensitivity meets robust construction

The Synergrip carbon handle paired with a rubberized Fuji VSS reel seat delivers direct blank contact and secure grip in wet conditions. Every strike, current change, and bottom contact transmits clearly through the 46T Torayca blank reinforced with Nano400 T1100G carbon, while the extra-fast action and Reset Accelerator technology ensure lightning-quick hook sets and instant blank recovery after each cast.

Built for distance and durability in saltwater

Fuji Titanium K SiC guides resist corrosion and friction, enabling smooth line flow for maximum casting distance even with braided lines. The fast-tapered blank loads efficiently with lures from 10 to 45g, letting you launch everything from finesse soft plastics to weightier jigs and surface lures without compromising feel or control. Includes a competition-ready neoprene rod sleeve.
