Description

The PENN® Carnage ® III rods are truly in a class of their own. These rods represent the next generation of high-performance rod building with powerful, lightweight blanks that are also extremely durable. PENN’s RCB2 construction consists of a rolled composite core and outer layers of longitudinal glass to provide a lightweight, thin, and parabolic blank that flexes from grip to tip, distributing weight for extra durability. Tangle-Free Fuji® K guides with SiC inserts, Fuji® reel seats, and tapered Hypalon grips pair for a technical, sensitive, and premium setup. These parabolic blanks offer sought after durability, balance, and recoil anglers need to work jigs from nearshore bays and sounds to offshore wrecks and bottom structures.

Field Notes

This is a conventional slow-pitch rod designed for working jigs in nearshore bays, sounds, offshore wrecks, and bottom structure. Its parabolic blank and sensitive build are meant for controlled jig presentation and solid hook handling rather than casting lures long distances.

Pros

  • Lightweight yet durable composite construction
  • Sensitive parabolic action for slow-pitch jigging
  • Premium Fuji guides and reel seat

Cons

  • Specialized technique rod, not ideal for general-purpose fishing
  • Higher price point

Perfect combo of strength and sensitivity I have caught multiple rockfish, lingcod, halibut and even salmon on these rods. Have the 250, 350 and 450 gram rods. All do very well in thier respective ratings and I plan on getting the 100 gram as well for micro jigging. You have to remember that these are purpose built rods to do 1 thing, and that's slow pitch, and they do very well.
