Penn Battalion III Slow Pitch Casting

The PENN Battalion III Slow Pitch Casting Rod is purpose-built for anglers who want a responsive, controlled conventional setup for modern slow-pitch jigging.

PENN’s RCB2 Construction combines a light, responsive feel with the durability and lifting power needed for bottom fish and offshore species. Solid Tip Technology improves bite detection while maintaining the smooth, progressive bend slow-pitch anglers want under load.

Extended split-grip handles with tapered EVA provide added leverage and comfort, while Sea-Guide PVD black stainless-steel guides with zirconia inserts deliver smooth line flow and corrosion resistance in saltwater conditions.
