Description
We have been trialing this rod and reel combo in 2025 with great effect. This shorter style of rod and reel combo allows you to fish close quarters with great effect. Ideal for either a Kayak, SIB or even using topwater lures or light soft plastic lures in an estuarine environment. The casting weight of the rod and reel combo is 7-35g which covers most types of lures from either a river or an inshore water and also allows you to combat a decent fish with enough firepower and length. We particularly like using these ourselfs in the estuary as it is so light for topwater lures with the rod top held up slowly walking the dog along the surface or flicking out that light, medium weighted lure and once again holding that tip held high feeling every knock and bump whilst dragging the lure along the bottom where the predators are generally lurking in the colder months or especially at night.
Rod: Tyrants S802 M 2.4m (7ft 10.5) Spinning Rod 7-35g Casting Weight which is perfect for casting most lures. A light rod weighing 118g with regular fast action which means the rod will bend more offering a balance between power and sensitivity.
Reel: Brown Bear 3000 (Full Metal Saltwater Spinning Reel) This reel is pure class and has a great ball handle that we love using. This reel weighs 285g which is very light.
Note: If you purchase any of our combos we will send the rod and reel separately so they might not arrive on the same day.
