Samson Long Cast Spinning Rod 'MAXIMAL TRAVEL' 12ft Spinning Rod (60-200g)

The Samson Long Cast Travel 'Maximal' 12ft Spinning Rod The Samson Long Cast Maximal Travel lure rod is the ideal companion for your overseas big fish adventures. Whether casting from the rocks into deep water or out into the surf, this rod gives you the ability to get your lure to the fish. Designed for targeting species such as bluefish, roosterfish, tuna and other large species, the 12ft blank is ideal for controlling your lure around rocks and features, and with a casting range of 60 to 200g is capable of casting the largest lures in your tackle box. The length and power of the blank means that the Maximal can also be used for bait fishing, saving you the inconvenience and cost of transporting an additional rod. The Maximal Travel is built on a 30T Toray Japanese carbon fibre blank with fast-action and medium-stiff tip like the regular Maximal. The rod performs like a two-piece, and is perfect for working large both surface and sub-surface lures, all whilst providing excellent long range casting, lure feedback, and fish-fighting abilities. The convenient six-piece travel format allows the rod to break down into 67cm sections and is complemented by the included semi-hard zipped protective case, complete with an adjustable carry strap, perfect for hiking or travelling to that remote mark. If you usually struggle transporting rods on your adventures due to space limitations, the overall case length of 74cm makes it possible to fit into a large suitcase, removing the need for an additional checked rod tube at the airport. With a deadlift capability of 10kg the Maximal Travel can lift fish from the water to help you safely land them from the rocks in difficult or challenging conditions. The rod is fitted with quality braid-safe Fuji O ring guides for reliability and long casts, and the 70cm EVA handle provides the leverage and comfort you need for a day’s monster hunting. Paired with a 6000 to 14000 size reel and 40 to 80lb braid, the Maximal will subdue hard-fighting tropical species.

If a section does ever become stuck, use sticky tape doubled on each section. The extra grip will make it much easier to free the sections.
