Product Details and Uses

Tronixpro Competition Blackout 13′ 4″ (4-8oz)

The “Jack of All Trades” Powerhouse with a Surgical Touch.

In the world of high-end beachcasters, you often have to choose between a “poker” for distance or a “noodle” for bite detection. The Tronixpro Competition Blackout refuses to compromise. It is engineered to be the ultimate all-rounder—a rod that has the brute strength to launch an 8oz lead into a gale, but the finesse to register the tiny “rattle” of a Dab at 100 yards.

At Gerry’s Fishing, we consider the Blackout a “benchmark” rod. Built on a slim, high-grade Japanese 40T Carbon blank, it offers a progressive action that is incredibly easy to load.2 Whether you’re a tournament-level pendulum caster or a pleasure angler using a simple overhead thump, the Blackout stores and releases energy with smooth, predictable power.

Why the Blackout is the Ultimate All-Rounder:

  • Blended Glass Tip: The secret to its versatility. The glass tip provides exceptional sensitivity for shy-biting species while “cushioning” the cast. This eliminates the “bite back” felt in stiffer rods, making power casting smoother and more comfortable.

  • Mighty Bright™ Eclipse Tape: We know the best fishing often happens in the dark. The tip is wrapped in premium reflective tape, making every knock and pull glow vividly under a headlamp.

  • Fuji Components Throughout: No corners have been cut. It features Fuji KWAG guides for friction-free casting and a Fuji DPS sliding reel seat, allowing you to find the perfect balance point for your reel, whether you fish “up” or “down.”

  • 40T Japanese Carbon: This high-modulus carbon ensures the rod remains slim and lightweight (only 726g) without sacrificing the “backbone” needed to bully large Bass, Rays, and Cod through the surf.

Where to Use It (Pro Recommendations)

  • Clean to Mixed Ground: This is the perfect tool for 90% of UK beaches. It’s refined enough for the sands of Morecambe Bay but has the power to handle the mixed ground of the North East or South Wales.

  • Specimen Hunting: The progressive blank gives you immense lifting power. It’s a top choice for targeting large Rays, Smooth-hounds, and winter Cod where you need to apply pressure to keep a fish’s head up.

  • Night Sessions: The combination of the glass tip and Mighty Bright tape makes this one of the best night-fishing rods on the market. You’ll see bites that other anglers simply miss.

  • All-Day Match Fishing: Because it’s so well-balanced and easy to cast, the Blackout won’t tire you out during a grueling 6 or 7-hour competition.

Gerry’s Tip: The “sliding reel seat” is a game-changer. If you find your arms are aching after a few hours, try moving the reel seat down an inch or two to change the leverage. Small adjustments like this are why the Blackout is a favorite among the “long-session” pros here at the shop
