Open Box PENN Carnage III Slow Pitch Spinning Rod, 6'8" Fishing Pole, Medium Heavy Power

Designed for anglers who demand strength, balance, and control, the PENN Carnage III Slow Pitch Spinning Rod is engineered for serious saltwater performance. Built as part of PENN’s next generation of high-performance rods, this 6-foot 6-inch slow pitch spinning rod combines advanced materials and premium components to deliver confidence from inshore waters to offshore structure. At the core of the Carnage III is PENN’s RCB2 construction, featuring a rolled composite carbon core reinforced with longitudinal glass outer layers. This design creates a thin, lightweight blank that remains exceptionally strong under load. The parabolic blank flexes smoothly from grip to tip, distributing pressure evenly to improve recoil, reduce stress points, and enhance control when working slow pitch jigs. Rated Medium Heavy with fast action and a 50-pound line rating, this rod provides the backbone needed to handle aggressive saltwater fish while maintaining the sensitivity required to detect subtle bites. The fast action delivers solid hook-setting power, making it effective around nearshore bays, sounds, wrecks, and bottom structure. Premium components complete the build. Fuji K-Series tangle-free guides with SiC inserts reduce friction, minimize wind knots, and support smooth casting with braided or monofilament line. A Fuji reel seat ensures a secure, responsive connection, while the adjustable Hypalon Versa-Grip, slip-resistant Hypalon handles, and durable rubber gimbal provide comfort, stability, and leverage during long jigging sessions or heavy fights. Purpose-built for slow pitch jigging, the PENN Carnage III Slow Pitch Spinning Rod delivers the durability, balance, and performance serious saltwater anglers expect from a brand trusted in harsh marine conditions.
