Designed as a jack of all trades. This rod is for beginners, occasional anglers and holiday anglers that need the versatility to fish beaches and piers. At 10ft, it is the ideal length for fishing from piers, allowing you to cast away from the pier but also for vertical fishing down the side. Like all Phoenix Rods, it has an easy casting action that beginners will love. A great rod for fishing for mackerel from structures and when fishing the beach, it comes alive when targeting flatfish, whiting, and other inshore species.
