Description
The Anyfish Anywhere 6 and Bait MK2 14ft is a powerful and highly versatile beachcasting rod that has earned a reputation as a modern classic. It is specifically designed to handle the demands of heavy-duty shore fishing, making it the perfect tool for targeting large fish in demanding conditions, while its 14ft length gives it an added edge in casting distance and line management.
The rod’s core purpose is to be a true workhorse, built to cast a 6oz lead and a big bait (hence the name), and to do so with exceptional power and control. This makes it the go-to choice for anglers targeting species like large winter cod, conger eels, and bull huss from rough ground, piers, or beaches with strong tides. The 14ft length provides a significant advantage, as it allows the angler to lift the line clear of breaking waves and kelp, a crucial factor when fishing from a high mark or in a powerful surf.
The rod is built on a high-modulus carbon blank that provides a fast, powerful, and progressive action. Unlike a super-stiff rod, the 6 and Bait MK2 has a forgiving nature that allows it to load smoothly and easily, making it accessible to anglers of all skill levels. An angler can achieve impressive casting distances with a simple overhead thump, while the rod has the backbone to handle more powerful casting techniques, such as an off-the-ground or pendulum style. This blend of power and user-friendliness is a key part of its appeal.
A key feature of the 6 and Bait MK2 is its traditional two-piece equal section design. This provides a clean and continuous power curve from butt to tip, with no weak points, which is essential when casting heavy weights and fighting large fish. The rod is fitted with premium Fuji rings, which are durable, corrosion-resistant, and provide smooth line flow, helping to maximize casting distance and prevent line friction. The guides are suitable for use with both fixed spool and multiplier reels.
The rod is equipped with a Fuji DPS screw lock reel seat that provides a secure mounting point for your reel. The butt section is finished with a non-slip Japanese shrink wrap grip, which ensures a secure and comfortable hold during a powerful cast and when playing a fish. The rod’s classic black finish and understated livery reflect its no-nonsense, hardworking nature.
In terms of performance, the Anyfish Anywhere 6 and Bait MK2 is a rod you can truly rely on. Its optimum casting weight is a 6oz lead, but it is capable of handling heavier weights if needed. While it is a powerful rod, its tip is still sensitive enough to provide good bite detection. Its main strength, however, is its immense backbone and lifting power, which gives the angler the confidence to pull a large fish away from snags and to land it safely. It’s a rod for the serious angler who needs a tool that will not fail in the toughest of conditions.
