Penn Tidal XR Surfcasting Rod 4.5m 100–300g

Penn Tidal XR 453 100–300g — Maximum Distance and Power

The Penn Tidal XR 453 in metallic red delivers extreme casting distance and backbone for demanding surf conditions where distance and power matter most.

Fuji Alconite K-Type Guides for Maximum Range

Saltwater-proof Fuji Alconite K-Type guides minimize friction and prevent line tangles, enabling you to reach distant feeding zones. The 8-guide layout on this 4.5 m blank supports smooth line flow and control even under load.

Slim, Powerful 30/40T Carbon Blank with X-Wrap

High-modulus 30/40T carbon keeps the blank lightweight (730 g) and responsive, while Carbon X-Wrap technology reinforces the structure, reduces twisting, and improves casting accuracy. The fast-action blank loads quickly for long, controlled casts. A glow-in-the-dark Sensitip helps you spot bites during low-light sessions.
