Meet theKilwell Tica Galant 1463 BW8000 Surf Combo—built for distance, precision, and reliability on every beach or rocky outcrop. This long‑cast surf set pairs a high‑modulus, interwoven carbon blank with a purpose‑built reel to deliver consistent, powerful casting and controlled fish fights in demanding coastal conditions.

Engineered for Long-Destinated Distance and Accuracy

The 4.45m, 3‑piece Galant surf casting rod features a slimline blank crafted from high‑modulus carbon fiber, delivering both stiffness and sensitivity. The innovative hybrid tip, constructed from high‑strength graphite, provides extra responsiveness for long casts while maintaining bite detection. A reflective tip finish enhances visibility during night sessions, helping you lock onto strikes when light is low. An ergonomic palm swell guarantees repeatable hand placement for every cast, so you can place lures exactly where the fish are holding with confidence. Cast weights range from 100 to 220 grams, and with a total rod weight of just 550 grams, you’ll enjoy extended casting sessions without fatigue.

Surfy Stamina and Smooth Retrieval—The BW8000 Reel

The included Tica Brute Wolf BW8000 reel brings robust performance without breaking the bank. Its anodized aluminium spool and sealed, shielded bearings resist salt, sand, and grit, keeping gear cycling smoothly season after season. A lightweight, balanced rotor and anti‑twist line roller reduce line twist, while an ambidextrous folding handle ensures comfortable operation for both left‑ and right‑handed anglers. The reel delivers a 4.4:1 retrieve ratio, pulling in roughly 90 cm of line per turn, and a stout 10 kg maximum drag to control strong coastal fish. With a 280 yards / 20 lb monofilament capacity, you’ll have the line backing you need for long, controlled runs along the shoreline.

Why This Surf Combo Stands Out

• High‑modulus carbon blank for superior power, sensitivity, and distance without a heavy feel.
• Hybrid tip with night‑fishing finish boosts bite detection and visibility when the beach lights fade.
• Ergonomic palm swell ensures consistent grip and casting form across hours of fishing from shore or rocks.
• Lightweight, durable components—low‑profile guides keep weight down while standing up to saltwater abuse.
• Balanced reel system with anti‑twist rotor and shielded bearings to minimize maintenance and maximize durability.
• Strong line capacity and drag—280/20 lb capacity and 10 kg drag give you control over bigger, tenacious coastal fish.
• Integrated value—a complete long cast surf set designed to deliver performance without the premium price, backed by Kilwell’s reputation for rugged, reliable gear.

Ideal Use Scenarios

Perfect for beach fishing where you’re dialing in long, accurate casts to distant waves, and for rock fishing where stability and control matter. The combination excels when targeting inshore species that retreat behind troughs or ledges, and it’s equally at home in twilight sessions where visibility is limited but the bite count isn’t. If you value distance, accuracy, and a responsive feel from a single, balanced setup, this surf combo is designed to deliver.

Practical Tips to Get the Most from Your Combo

• Rinse the rod and reel with fresh water after saltwater use to extend the life of guides and bearings.
• Periodically check the drag setting and lubricate moving parts as recommended to maintain smooth performance.
• Practice casting with the 100–220 g range to identify the sweet spot for your local beach conditions and lures.
• Pair with a suitable mono or braid line within the reel’s capacity to optimize casting distance and line management.

With the Kilwell Tica Galant 1463 BW8000 Surf Combo, you’re choosing a purpose‑built long‑cast surf set that fuses advanced carbon technology, thoughtful details for night and all‑day use, and durable, coastal‑weather toughness. It’s a ready‑to‑fish solution for anglers who demand distance, precision, and dependable performance from a single, cohesive setup.
