Description

Whether you’re slow-pitching a 1-ounce jig or one that weighs a pound, you need a rod that can handle it properly. The PENN Battalion II Slow Pitch Casting Rod is crafted specifically for this technique, allowing you to track a slow-moving bait all the way down, feel every tick, react with authority, and hook and hold whatever is lurking in the depths. It’s built on PENN’s RCB2 blank, a rolled composite core overlaid with longitudinal glass, which yields a sensitive, yet flexible beast of a rod with durable Solid Tip Technology and a parabolic bend capability calibrated to outlast those stubborn saltwater brutes. Still, you’ll find this rod impressively light and thin, easy to control despite its powerful backbone. Its technical enhancements include tangle-free Fuji K guides with Alconite inserts, a quality Fuji reel seat, and tapered EVA grips that include an adjustable EVA Versa-Grip for just the right balance and feel.
