Black Inshore
Budget inshore saltwater graphite rods, casting and spinning, for Northeast and Southeast species
The Lamiglas Black Inshore is an entry-level inshore saltwater series covering Northeast and Southeast coastal species. The target angler is a budget-conscious inshore fisherman who wants a serviceable graphite blank with quality components at a sub-$150 retail price, outside the high-performance specialist rod lane. Species serves include fluke, flounder, striped bass, sea trout, redfish, snook, and sea bass depending on region. Blanks are 24-ton carbon graphite with carbon fiber reinforcement at the butt for additional lifting power against larger fish.
All hardware is Fuji; handles are cork. The 24-ton modulus is at the lower end of graphite specs, prioritizing toughness over ultimate sensitivity, appropriate for an inshore rod likely to see rough treatment. Lamiglas warns that graphite construction is less tolerant of high-sticking than fiberglass; some snapping complaints in reviews. Backed by a lifetime warranty. Retail starts around $119. The 10-model lineup splits 5 casting and 5 spinning, all 6'8" to 7'6", F or MF action.
Casting models run M through H power (8-40lb line), covering everything from moderate jig work to heavy bait. Spinning models run M through H (8-30lb line). The heaviest casting model, B7040C, handles 20-40lb line with 3-12oz lures, oriented toward large live eels, chunking, or heavy poppers for stripers. B7320S at 7'3" H spinning with 12-20lb is the atypically stout spinning model.

Model notes
2 of 10 modelsThe lightest casting model at MF action, more versatile than the F-action models for moderate jig work and working soft plastics where a slightly softer tip aids lure action.
The heaviest casting model; 3-12oz lure range and 20-40lb line moves this into heavy striper chunking, large live bait, or big surface plug territory. The 7' length keeps it manageable from boat or shoreline.
