Format... Spinning Rod Features... Telescopic Fishing Type... Breakwater,磯 (Rocky Shore/Reef) This is a standard rod for surf casting, the Shimano Surf Leader. Purchased around 2005, it has been used a few times and has no noticeable scratches or dirt. I used several rods, switching them according to the tide and wind, but the CX-T is the rod that casts the furthest. (This is my personal opinion.) It is an indispensable rod, especially for flounder fishing. Please consider it.
