## Description

The PENN Squadron III Surf rods are engineered to be versatile surf fishing rods accessible to virtually any angler. Built with durability in mind, the rod offers a graphite composite blank construction, PENN's virtually indestructible one-piece stainless steel Dura-Guides (no more insert popouts), and comfortable shrink tube and EVA grips offer a traditional style and feel. This saltwater set up is truly up to the challenge. Saltwater breeds a different kind of angler. It toughens you. It cures you like bacon. It leaves you thirsty for the next fight. Hard core saltwater anglers need equipment that is as tough as they are, and as reliable as the rising tide. At PENN, we've been testing the limits of saltwater fishing since 1932, which is why our reputation for durability runs so deep. PENN. LET THE BATTLE BEGIN.

Review: Penn Squaron IV Conventional Rod - The 2 piece fishing rod arrived intact and undamaged (don't know how, it was just in a plastic bag). This rod in combination with the Penn Rival 30 reel looks to be a great combo for surf fishing and crabbing. Can't wait to get my line in the water!
Review: Another win for Penn - Perfect Surf Rod! Has a wonderful stiffness that makes you feel like you can handle any size fish. At the same time, the tips sensitivity is wonderful. I can feel every bite. I’m even able to flick different lures easily. Great rod for the price!
