Model notes
All 2 modelsThe shorter 9-foot model trades casting distance for maneuverability on jetties, piers, or inlets. The lighter line rating (15–25 lb) aligns with finesse surf rigs and smaller lures in tighter water.
At 12 feet, this is the distance-casting option for open beach work where getting bait past breaking waves matters. The 20–40 lb line window and heavier lure capacity support larger rigs and cut-bait presentations common in open surf.
