The PENN Marine Brigade offshore series of rods is designed to endure many hours of exposure out on the open ocean. Specifically made for trolling and drifting, the Marine Brigade trolling model is not only an eye-catcher but designed to be technically perfect. The rod features an extremely strong carbon blank and is equipped with heavy-duty SeaGuide guides – it can handle the biggest fish out there in the deep blue. A unique feature is the under whipped, spiral-mounted guides – this prevents the line touching the blank of the rod under heavy load. The aluminium reel seat is equipped with a double locking-nut, to ensure the reel is always safely secured. The high-density EVA provides perfect grip, while the slick butt prevents the butt getting damaged in a rod holder. The aluminium gimbal provides added strength and a secure connection during a fight.
