Overview
A graphite spinning rod from Sougayilang, model Only Brave18, measuring 1.8 meters (5.9 feet) and rated medium heavy for 10 lb line, built with a surf technique in mind for species like perch.
Graphite keeps the 5.92 ounce blank light in hand while the medium heavy rating adds backbone for casting distance in surf conditions. It is sold as a one piece rod rather than a combo, so a reel is a separate purchase.
- Graphite one piece blank
- 1.8m / 5.9ft length
- Medium heavy power rated for 10 lb line
- Built for perch with a surf technique
Who it's for
Shore and surf anglers targeting perch sized fish who want a lighter graphite blank with extra backbone. Not suited to anglers needing to fish line heavier than 10 lb.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Graphite blank stays light at under 6 ounces
- Medium heavy power adds backbone for surf casting
- Single piece build for consistent action
- 10 lb line rating limits it to lighter targeting
- One piece length is less packable than a telescopic rod
- Sold as rod only, reel not included
Performance notes
Graphite construction keeps weight down at 5.92 ounces while the medium heavy power gives it more backbone than a light rod, aiding casting distance in surf. The 10 lb line rating caps it below heavier inshore or big freshwater applications.
