Penn Overseas XT II Popping Spinning Rod 2.5m 80–220g Fast

Penn Overseas XT II Popping 2.5m 80–220g 4pc — Power and Control for Tropical Giants

The Penn Overseas XT II Popping is built for serious offshore hunters targeting tuna, GT (giant trevally), amberjack, barracudas, and other hard-fighting predators in tropical waters. This four-piece travel rod combines a powerful backbone with responsive tip action, giving you the leverage to set hooks at distance and the sensitivity to work topwater lures with precision.

Strong Backbone with Responsive Tip Action

Constructed from high-modulus 24T and 30T carbon with X-wrap technology, the Overseas XT II delivers the stopping power you need to control trophy fish, even on long casts. The fast-action tip lets you impart aggressive pops and walks to surface lures while maintaining constant contact with your target. When a GT explodes on your popper, the rod's design ensures solid hooksets and confident fish control throughout the fight.

Designed for Long Sessions and Intense Battles

The ergonomically shaped high-density EVA handle provides a secure, comfortable grip during extended fishing hours and adrenaline-charged battles. Fuji Alconite guides with eight positions including the tip offer smooth line flow and durability against braided lines. The Fuji DPS reel seat locks your reel firmly in place. At 421g with an 82cm transport length, this four-piece rod fits easily into the included Cordura travel tube, making it an ideal companion for fly-in destinations and boat trips.
