M1 Inshore

The Phenix M1 Inshore serves coastal and nearshore anglers pursuing calico bass, redfish, snook, speckled trout, and Gulf Coast pelagics. The series fits anglers who fish from jetties, beaches, or boats in saltwater environments and need a rod that handles extended sessions without corrosion damage. Line ratings from 10-25lb (ML) through 20-45lb (H Full) cover a broad set of presentations, paddle tails, swimbaits, topwater, and iron. Blanks are built on unidirectional carbon fiber incorporating nanotube technology, resulting in a lightweight yet stiff profile.

All models ship with Fuji New O-Ring guides and a custom high-density EVA split grip handle suited for wet-hand use. Action is XF throughout the casting lineup, with the lone spinning models running F. The tip section is sensitive but transitions quickly to backbone, supporting clean hook sets and control of larger gamefish. The 14-model lineup divides into 11 casting rods (7'3"–9') and 3 spinning rods (7'3"–7'11"). Casting models split by power, ML for lighter finesse presentations (10-25lb), MH as the workhorse inshore range (15-35lb), and H/Full configurations for heavy surf, kelp bed, and pelagic work (20-45lb).

The spinning trio handles lighter retrieves and finesse lures on 8-35lb line. Two full-grip casting models at 7'9" and 8'2" address longer casting scenarios.
