Penn 1581045 review

Four pieces and a travel tube, rated in line class rather than casting weight — read the unit before comparing.

The bottom line Four pieces and a travel tube make it the rod that flies, but it is rated in line class rather than casting weight — read the unit before you compare it with anything here.

What the maker puts in writing

  • Length: 210 cm · Sections: 4
  • Line class: 20 to 30 lbs
  • Blank: 24T carbon
  • Guides: Fuji stainless with aluminium oxide rings
  • Cordura travel tube included

Read the unit first

This rod is rated in pounds of line class. Two other rods on this shelf are rated in grams of casting weight — 150–400 g and 200–600 g.

They are different claims. A line class says what the blank is built to fight; a casting weight says what it will throw. Neither converts into the other, and this site does not convert.

The travel case

Four sections and a Cordura tube. That is the whole argument for this rod over a two-piece: a boat rod that flies.

Where it can be bought

Italy and Spain 93,68 €, France 103,67 €, Britain 112,99 €, Germany 115,55 €, United States 170,54 €. Confirmed in all six.

Availability

Read on the day this page was built: 94 € to 116 € at the German, French, Italian and Spanish Amazon shops.

Priced in another currency: the American and British Amazon shops sell it outside the euro, so the range above excludes it.

The declared figures, and the point they run out

Strengths

  • Four sections and a Cordura tube, which makes it the only boat rod here that travels as luggage
  • Fuji guides named by maker rather than described generically
  • Confirmed and priced in all six markets

Compromises

  • Rated in pounds of line class, not grams — it cannot be compared directly with the 200–600 g rods here
  • No weight and no transport length published
  • The American price of 170,54 € is nearly double the Italian and Spanish 93,68 €

Questions that come in about this one

What does 20–30 lbs mean here?

It is a line class, not a casting weight. It states the line strength the rod is built to fight, and it does not say what lead it will drop. Two rods on this shelf give grams instead, and the two units do not convert.

What is an inline boat rod?

One built for a multiplier or inline reel mounted on top of the blank, which is how a lead is dropped straight down and recovered under load. A fixed-spool reel hangs below and is a different arrangement.

Why four pieces?

To travel. Four sections plus the Cordura tube is a rod that goes in a suitcase, and no other boat rod on this shelf does.

Who this one is for

Boat fishing abroad, carried as luggage, with a multiplier reel
