PENN Battalion Solid Jigging Spinning Rod
The PENN Battalion Solid Jigging Spinning Rod is a vertical jigging rod from the Battalion Solid Jigging series. It is designed to handle the jig with precise control and to work directly on the bottom and through the water column. The Spiral Armor Solid Carbon construction defines the character of the series and combines sensitivity with a rigid structure, with K Alconite guides and a spinning setup.
What it is for
This rod is designed for vertical jigging, where the angler must move the lure with a steady rhythm and keep immediate contact with the jig’s action. In this application, blank response, hook-setting sensitivity and the ability to keep the fish under pressure without losing control are essential. The series is used from a boat, in vertical fishing and in situations where a responsive, well-balanced rod is needed during the retrieve. The blank structure supports the fishing action and allows the jig to be managed with precision. The choice between models mainly depends on the required casting power and on the setup you want to use in relation to the lure weight.
