Penn Tidal XT Beach Caster Spinning Rod 3.96m 113–227g

Penn Tidal XT Beach Caster 3.96m — precision casting and extreme distance

The Penn Tidal XT Beach Caster 3.96m delivers serious casting power and control for surf anglers targeting distance and accuracy in saltwater conditions.

Built for extreme distance and accuracy

The 36T/40T high modulus carbon blank with X-Wrap technology creates a super slim, responsive profile that loads efficiently for maximum casting distance. The X-Wrap construction reduces blank twist during the cast, translating directly into improved accuracy and control. Fast action ensures crisp power delivery, while the strong glow-in-the-dark tip helps you track bites in low light.

Versatile design for fixed spool and multiplier setups

Fuji Deep Pressed guides with saltwater-resistant Alconite rings handle both braid and mono with minimal friction, and the guide spacing suits fixed spool reels and multipliers equally well. The X-Shrink casting grip provides secure, comfortable control during powerful casts, and the DPS-type reel seat locks your reel firmly in place.

Choose the right variant

Penn offers the Tidal XT Beach Caster in three lengths to match your beach fishing style:

• 3.96m (13ft) 113–227g (4–8oz) — ideal for moderate to long-range surf fishing, balanced for all-day casting with fixed spool or multiplier reels; suits bass, cod, rays, and general beach species where mobility and versatility matter

• 4.27m (14ft) 113–227g (4–8oz) — slightly longer blank for extra leverage and distance when fishing open beaches with room to cast; same casting weight and reel compatibility

• 4.8m (15ft 9in) 113–227g (4–8oz) — maximum length for anglers seeking ultimate distance on expansive surf marks; heavier blank (773g) trades portability for raw casting power
