Catch Pro Series Spinning Rod — 7'3", 8–12 kg, 2-Piece Travel Power

Designed in New Zealand for inshore anglers and boat sessions, the Catch Pro Series Spinning Rod blends featherweight sensitivity with reassuring backbone. At 7'3" and two pieces, this rod gives you travel-friendly portability without compromising on strength, balance, or casting control. The high-carbon blank translates the faintest bite into immediate action, making subtle takes feel obvious and easy to convert into clean, decisive hook-sets. Designed in NZ, and crafted to perform across estuaries, rocky headlands, and drifting boats, it’s the go-to tool when precision matters as much as power.

Why this rod stands out

• Sensitive, fast-responsive action: A high-carbon blank delivers crisp, immediate response and excellent line feel, so you can sense soft plastics, micro jigs, and light metal lures with confidence.
• High-spec guidance for smooth casting: Fuji K-series guides ensure clean line flow and longevity in saltwater environments, enhancing accuracy and reducing line friction during longer casts.
• Travel-ready, two-piece design: Breaks down easily for storage and transport, yet maintains balance and power for steady retrieves and hard-hooked moments. Two-piece, 7'3" length supports quick setups from car boots to boat tackle stations.
• Ideal line and lure ranges for inshore targets: Suits 8–12 kg lines and lures up to 80 g, covering snapper-focused rigs, soft plastics, micro jigs, and compact metal jigs with precise presentation.
• Reel comfort and practical extras: A purpose-built reel seat and strategically placed hook keeper enhance all‑day comfort and convenience during lengthy sessions on estuary tides or boat drifts. NZ-designed with thoughtful details.

Use cases that maximize performance

From calm estuary ambushes to choppy headlands and drifting boat conditions, this rod delivers stable balance and exact control. The fast, responsive tip makes subtle movements feel obvious, helping you dial in soft plastics or micro jigs with confidence and finesse. The soft‑presentation capabilities shine when you’re working current or tides, and the robust blank holds up to decisive hook-sets when you find a willing snapper or similar inshore species.

What it’s perfect for

• Inshore anglers chasing snapper and similar species who value sensitivity plus reliable backbone for steady retrieves.
• Soft-plastic and micro-jig enthusiasts who need a light, responsive setup that communicates bite feel and lure action clearly.
• Travel-minded fishers who want a compact two-piece rod without sacrificing casting distance or control.
