At Gerry’s Fishing, we’ve seen plenty of lure rods come and go, but the “Red Rod” reputation is built on consistency. The Tenryu Injection SP 89 MH 2ES is the 2022 evolution of a blank that many consider the “Gold Standard” for sea bass. While the original 82 MH was a master of the 8ft range, this 2.70m (9ft) version opens up entirely new horizons. If you’ve ever stood on a beach or a rocky point wishing you had just ten more yards of reach and better line control in the surf, this is the rod you’ve been looking for.
What makes this rod special is its “nervous” energy. The blank is a sophisticated blend of high-modulus carbon with a small proportion of fiberglass. That glass isn’t there for weight; it’s there for mechanical resistance. It gives the rod a level of durability and “soul” that pure carbon blanks sometimes lack. With a significant taper, the SP 89 MH 2ES possesses a massive reserve of power in the butt section—essential for “bullying” a trophy bass out of kelp or around a jagged reef—while the tip remains remarkably soft to ensure you don’t pull the hooks during a frantic surface fight.
The “2ES” designation is music to the ears of the mobile angler. It stands for 2 Equal Sections, moving away from the offset handle designs of the past. This makes it a breeze to transport in a standard rod holdall without compromising the seamless power transfer Tenryu is famous for. Whether you are launching 20g minnows into a headwind or finessing a soft plastic through a tidal rip, the SP 89 MH 2ES provides the tactile feedback and “grunt” needed to dominate the shoreline.

Open Beach Power Casting: The 9ft length is the sweet spot for launching hard lures over the first two breakers to reach the “feeding troughs” where bass patrol.
Rocky Points & Headlands: The extra leverage allows you to steer fish around sub-surface boulders and maneuver lures effectively from high-vantage points.
Estuary Mouths: Excellent for “mending” line across fast-moving water veins, giving you total control over the drift of your lure.
Surf Fishing: The soft tip absorbs the “thump” of the waves, preventing the lure from being ripped out of the strike zone and ensuring the fish stays hooked when it hits.
“The 89 MH 2ES is a ‘hard lure’ specialist that hides a secret talent for soft plastics. Because of that small fiberglass content in the blank, the rod has a slightly slower ‘rebound’ than a super-stiff tournament rod. This is actually a massive advantage when using shallow-diving minnows or surface lures—it allows the lure to ‘work’ more naturally. My advice? Pair this with a 3000 or 4000 size reel and 1.2PE braid. Use the length of the rod to keep as much line off the water as possible; the less line you have in the ‘slop’ of the waves, the more fish you’ll feel!”
Why does Tenryu use fiberglass in this blank?
It’s all about balance. A 100% carbon blank can be brittle and ‘sterile.’ By adding a tiny amount of high-quality fiberglass, Tenryu increases the rod’s ‘mechanical resistance.’ This means the rod can handle the sudden, violent lunges of a large fish in the surf without snapping, and it provides a more comfortable, less fatiguing casting action.
Is 9ft too long for modern lure fishing?
Not at all. While 7ft to 8ft rods are great for boats or small creeks, 9ft is widely considered the ‘perfect’ length for UK shore angling. It gives you the casting distance you need for beaches and the leverage required for rock hopping.
What is the ‘2ES’ version?
Historically, many Tenryu rods were ‘1+1’ (a long tip and a short handle). The 2ES (Equal Strands) version means the rod breaks down into two sections of equal length. This makes it much easier to fit into your car or a standard rod bag while the modern spigot joint ensures the action remains perfect.
Will it cast lures lighter than 10g?
You can, but the rod really starts to ‘load’ and perform at its best once you hit that 15g to 28g window. If you regularly throw 5g-7g lures, you might find the tip a little too powerful, but for standard bass plugs and metals, it is absolutely spot on.
