Beastmaster GX Surf Tele

Beastmaster GX Surf Tele is a telescopic surf range of three rods, all 4.20m and all six sections, separated only by casting weight: 150g, 170g and 200g. A six-section telescopic collapses to a fraction of its fishing length, which is the point of the format for anglers walking to a mark or travelling to one, and it trades some of the through-action of a three-piece for that.

The blanks are full carbon with a fast action and a solid carbon tip. A solid tip on a surf rod is a bite-indication choice rather than a casting one: it bends further under a small load than a hollow tip of the same diameter, which shows a bite at range in the tip rather than only at the rod butt. Guides are Fuji K-Type, whose sloped frames shed a wet line rather than letting it wrap, and the reel seat is a Shimano DPS.

The three casting weights are lead ratings rather than lure ratings, and they are recorded as such so the range sorts against other surf rods rather than against lure rods. Released September 2026.
