Savage Gear Defiance SG8 Inshore Spinning Rod 2.9m 8–35g

Savage Gear Defiance SG8 Inshore 2.90m 8–35g – precision casting for seabass

This 2.90 m spinning rod combines fast-taper 46T Torayca carbon with Nano400 T1100G technology for maximum distance and accuracy when targeting seabass and other inshore species.

Extreme blank recovery for explosive hooksets

The Reset Accelerator Technology delivers ultra-fast blank recovery after each cast, giving you instant control and rock-solid hooksets. The extra-fast action responds to every twitch, letting you work lures with pinpoint precision while maintaining casting distance.

Unmatched grip and sensitivity

The Synergrip carbon handle with rubberized Fuji VSS reel seat keeps the rod locked in your hand during long sessions and transmits every tap directly to your palm. Combined with nine Fuji Titanium K SiC guides, the blank stays responsive down to the lightest bites while resisting saltwater corrosion.
