The Tackle World Adelaide Exclusive Penn Southern Specialist – Southern Cali is the ultimate all-in-one land based and boat Squid fishing rod.

Our customers have begged for a rod they can use to chase Squid from rocks, jetties, boats and kayaks without forking out a premium for a high-end egi rod. We listened, and collaborated with Penn Fishing Australia to make this desired egi rod a reality.

Any squid fishing rod needs a parabolic, soft blank. We opted for a convenient 2-piece graphite composite blank to ensure easy travel and the technically correct action for working a squid jig to the best effect. By incorporating a parabolic taper, you have a blank that will cushion the bend to avoid pulled hooks during the fight. A common problem with using conventional fast-taper rods for squid.

An egi rod must be comfortable, but also optimized for correct balance and maximum casting distance. We precisely chose to split the butt section of the rod for a weight reduction and precise balance. Then, we extended the butt section for longer casting. Finally, we added a generous fore-grip for comfort during the fight and to minimize angler fatigue when performing the whipping action. The attention to detail ensures you’re getting the longest cast, the best balance and the best action from your squid jig.

It goes without saying, saltwater fishing gear needs to be made ready for saltwater fishing. The blank is fitted with stainless steel guide frames and quality ceramic inserts. Ready to go to battle for days, months and years in the harsh saltwater environment.

Finally, the colour scheme is an attractive blue & white with eye-catching red trims. The Penn Southern Specialist – Southern Cali is without a doubt the best all-round squid fishing rod. Experience what this incredible fishing rod has to offer!
