The Maxel Platinum Slow Pitch Jigging Conventional Rod is a versatile option for anglers fishing slow pitch jigs in both inshore and offshore environments. built by the team behind the Tsunami Slow Pitch series, this rod delivers the sensitivity and lifting power needed for pelagics while remaining effective on inshore species like fluke, striped bass, and blackfish.
Built on a lightweight yet powerful carbon fiber blank, it includes an external carbon tape cross wrap for added strength. An ultra-sensitive tip helps work slow pitch jigs effectively, while the strong lower section offers solid control during the fight. Fuji Alconite K-frame guides are optimized for braided line, and a Fuji graphite reel seat with EVA fore and rear grips completes a comfortable, balanced setup. Compared to many rods in its class, this series handles higher lure weights, up to 4 to 7 ounces depending on the model, making it suitable for jigging, bottom fishing, and slow pitch techniques.
