Product Details and Uses

The Angling Pursuits Beachcaster Telescopic (12ft / 3.6m) is a practical, user-friendly sea rod designed to make shore fishing accessible, convenient, and hassle-free. Constructed with a forgiving fiberglass blank, it absorbs the sudden lunges of hooked fish while providing plenty of cushion for beginner casting techniques.
The standout feature of this beachcaster is its multi-section telescopic design. Collapsing down to a fraction of its fully extended 12ft length, it fits easily into car boots, roof boxes, or luggage without taking up valuable space. Fitted with durable lined guide rings and a sturdy screw-lock reel seat, it is an ideal option for newcomers to sea angling, holidaymakers, or anglers wanting a dependable spare rod tucked away in the vehicle.

Pro Tip
Gerry’s Pro Tip: When setting up any telescopic sea rod, always extend it section by section starting from the top tip down to the butt. As you pull each section out, give it a firm, gentle twist to lock the joint into place. Make sure all line guides are aligned in a straight row down the blank before threading your line. When finished for the day, rinse the joints with fresh tap water to prevent sea salt and sand from scratching or jamming the telescopic sections.
Where to Use
  • Piers, Breakwaters & Jetties: Great for dropping sea rigs over harbour walls or casting off piers for mackarel, flatfish, and whiting.
  • Sandy Beaches: Excellent for general surf fishing with light-to-medium sea leads and bait setups.
  • Holiday & Travel Fishing: Compact design makes it easy to pack for coastal trips and family weekend breaks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What size reel pairs best with this 12ft rod?
A: A 6000 to 7000 size sea spinning reel or fixed spool reel loaded with 15lb–20lb monofilament line pairs perfectly with this rod setup.
Q: Can I cast heavy grip leads with this rod?
A: Yes, it handles standard sea casting weights between 4oz and 6oz comfortably, making it suitable for holding bottom in moderate tides.
Q: How do I stop sand from getting stuck in the telescopic joints?
A: Keep the rod butt off the wet sand when baiting up by using a beach rest, and always slide the protective tip cover over the rings when transport or storage to keep grit out of the inner blank sections.
