Product Details and Uses

PENN Tidal 4.50m (100-250g) – The Metallic Blue All-Rounder

When you need a rod that can handle the unpredictability of the UK coastline, the Metallic Blue PENN Tidal (100-250g) stands out as the definitive all-rounder. At Gerry’s Fishing, we often point anglers toward this 4.50m (15ft) model because it strikes the perfect balance: it has the backbone to punch through a stiff sea breeze but the finesse to show you exactly what’s happening at the business end.

As part of PENN’s exclusive Tidal series, this rod was developed alongside surfcasting experts from across Europe. The result is a high-performance, 30T carbon machine that offers incredible value for money, designed specifically to reach distant sandbars while maintaining the sensitivity required for technical shore fishing.

Expert Engineering & Versatile Power

30T Carbon Blank: The heart of the Tidal is its slim, responsive 30T carbon construction. This material ensures the rod is lightweight enough to hold for long sessions while providing the “fast” recovery needed for extreme casting distances.
The Metallic Blue Power Class: Rated at 100-250g (approx. 3.5oz – 8.8oz), this model is the “workhorse” of the range. It is equally at home launching a 5oz lead on a calm summer evening as it is holding bottom with a 6oz or 7oz grip lead in a flooding tide.
Sensitip Technology: Distance is nothing without detection. The integrated Sensitip is engineered for perfect bite registration, magnifying the subtle “knocks” of Flatfish or the sharp “pull” of a Bass, even at 100+ yards range.
Saltwater Proof K-Type Guides: Tangles are the enemy of distance. These specialized K-type guides are designed to be tangle-free, ensuring your line (whether braid or mono) flows smoothly even in windy, cross-shore conditions.
X-Shrink Casting Grip: To maximize your leverage, the rod features a durable shrink-wrap handle and a specialized casting grip. This provides a secure, non-slip purchase, allowing you to put maximum energy into the blank during the cast.

Where to Use the Metallic Blue Tidal

Big Beaches & Surf: The 15ft length provides the height needed to keep your line above the “shore-dump” and waves, keeping your gear pinned to the sea bed.
Clean to Mixed Ground: A true all-terrain rod. It has the sensitivity for “scratching” on sand but the mid-section power to bully fish away from light kelp or snags.
All-Season Fishing: From summer Smoothhounds and Rays to winter Cod and Whiting, this rod is built to perform 365 days a year.

Gerry’s Pro Tip

“The 4.50m Tidal is all about rhythm. Because it’s a 15ft rod, you don’t need to ‘snap’ the cast to get distance; instead, use a smooth, progressive overhead arc. Pair this rod with an 8000-sized long-cast fixed spool reel and a 0.16mm – 0.20mm braid. The extra length of the rod generates incredible tip speed, which, combined with the K-type guides, will launch a 5oz lead further than you ever thought possible with very little physical effort
