Description
The Tronix Guerilla Surf TT 4.5M 14’9″ 3pcs is engineered to bring the advantages of modern continental surfcasting to the diverse and often demanding beaches of the UK. This rod is the definitive tool for the angler who demands maximum casting distance paired with phenomenal bite registration, excelling across clean to mixed ground marks.
Key Features for UK Beach Anglers:
- Continental Length & Power (4.5m / 14’9″):
- Superior Distance: The extended 4.5-meter length is paramount for achieving the extreme casting ranges often required to reach distant feeding channels and sandbanks on large, shallow UK surf beaches (e.g., Lincolnshire, Norfolk, or vast Welsh sands).
- Heightened Line Control: The extra length keeps more line clear of the crashing waves and undertow, significantly improving bait presentation and reducing the amount of tackle swept back to shore by powerful tides.
- Twin Tip (TT) Technology – Ultimate Sensitivity:
- Exceptional Bite Detection: The “TT” (Twin Tip) design is a game-changer for UK match and pleasure anglers. It includes two interchangeable tips:
- Sensitive Tip: A finer, softer tip that provides superb visual registration for smaller species and shy-biting fish like Whiting, Flounder, Dabs, and delicate winter Codling taps.
- Power Tip: A stiffer, stronger tip for fishing heavier leads, targeting larger species like large Cod, Huss, or Conger, or when battling stronger surf and tidal currents.
- Exceptional Bite Detection: The “TT” (Twin Tip) design is a game-changer for UK match and pleasure anglers. It includes two interchangeable tips:
- Optimised for Fixed Spool & Multiplier:
- Versatile Casting: The rod is equipped with high-quality Seaguide K-Style Anti-Tangle guides. These guides are designed to promote smooth, friction-free casting and are suitable for use with both modern fixed spool reels (popular for distance casting) and traditional multiplier reels, catering to the preference of any UK angler.
- Casting Weight & Action:
- Heavy Leads Handled: With an expected casting weight typically in the region of 4-8oz (approx. 110-225g), this rod comfortably handles the common 5oz or 6oz grip leads required to anchor your bait in strong UK tides and heavy surf.
- Progressive Continental Action: The rod features a deep-loading, progressive blank action. It compresses throughout the entire blank during the cast, allowing even average casters to unlock impressive distance, which then quickly ‘snaps back’ for maximum launch power.
- Three-Piece Construction – Easy Transport:
- Portability: The 3-piece design ensures the rod breaks down to a manageable size, making it much easier to transport than traditional 2-piece rods—perfect for fitting into the car, carrying on foot, or taking on a train or bus to those favourite coastal marks.
The Tronix Guerilla Surf TT 4.5M offers a perfect blend of power, distance, and bite sensitivity, making it a highly effective and versatile rod for targeting everything from winter Cod to summer Smoothhounds and the humble Flattie on the diverse shores of the United Kingdom.
