Description
The W10 Spin is built for devoted seatrout anglers who demand more range and control than an ordinary spin rod can deliver. This longer 10’2″ MMH option adds extra casting distance and backbone over the 9’2″ version, built on the same high-performance slim Torayca® T1100G+M46X+’Nanoalloy® 55Ton’ blank for responsiveness without added weight.

Gerry’s Pro Tip
The extra length here really shows in a crosswind – keep your rod tip low through the cast to punch through the breeze rather than fighting it with a high, looping cast.
