The Medium combos that I have put together represent a huge part of the surf fishing world. Not everyone is capable (or willing!) to cast an 11' or 12' surf rod. They require some technique to competently cast for any real distance. The Medium combos I have put together are very user-friendly and along with the Medium-Heavy Spinning Combos, represent the bulk of surf rods ideally suited for most anglers. Most of the Medium combos I have teamed together feature rods that are in the 10' length class. 10' rods are basically suited perfectly for throwing 2-4 ounces + bait, medium metal lures, heavy plugs, etc. They will, if needed, cast 6 + bait. For the average fisherman, these rods are ideal for fishing up and down the coasts, especially in the summer months. The Medium rods are perfect for calm days and normal baits. The 10' rods are a staple in the arsenal of most all surf anglers. I would not hit the beach without one! As always, all James Tackle Combos INCLUDE SHIPPING! The Ultimate Medium Conventional Surf Medium Surf 1: Penn 525MAG on a James Tackle Custom 10'6" Rainshadow. Simply the best of the best in the all-around surf rod world. The Rainshadow blank is an incredible rod blank for throwing 2-5 ounces + bait. At 10'6", 2-piece and rated 2-5 ounces, the Rainshadow is a superior high-performance blank that can't be beat. She loves to throw 2 to 4 ounces + bait and will send 2 to 4 ounce metal to the moon! I build my lifetime-warranted custom heirloom-quality Rainshadow using Fuji long-cast Alconite concept guides, cork tape grips and the reel seat set at 28" from the tip of the butt to the center of the seat (if you have a different measurement you would like, call to order). The guides on the rod are positioned specifically for maximum casting efficiency with the Penn 525MAG. The sleek, clean Black wraps with Silver trim are in a word, sharp… but there is no additional charge for other colors. The Penn 525MAG is a realy jewel… they are incredibly well controlled reels… well suited for everyone from beginners to seasoned anglers. With the adjustable magnetic casting contol, fast 6:1 gearing and an incredible drag, the Penn 525MAG is a real winner all across the board for a medium conventional surf rod.
