The PENN Carnage III Slow Pitch Spinning Rod is built for anglers who want a lightweight, durable, parabolic rod specifically tuned for slow-pitch jigging.
PENN’s RCB2 construction uses a rolled composite core with longitudinal glass outer layers to create a thin, responsive blank that flexes deeply from grip to tip. That parabolic action helps the rod load and unload smoothly, making it easier to work slow-pitch jigs while distributing pressure throughout the blank during the fight.
Premium components include Fuji K-Series tangle-free guides with SiC inserts, a Fuji VSS reel seat, adjustable Hypalon Versa-Grip, durable Hypalon handles, and a rubber gimbal.
250g
A lighter slow-pitch option for smaller jigs, shallower water, and species like black sea bass, cod, haddock, stripers, and other bottom fish.
450g
The heavier option for deeper water, stronger current, larger jigs, and bigger fish where additional lifting power is needed.

Red Top Tip: Around Cape Cod, the 250g is a great choice for sea bass, cod, haddock, and lighter jigging, while the 450g makes more sense when you’re fishing deeper water, stronger tide, or stepping up to heavier offshore work.
