The PENN Conflict Elite Topwater Spinning Rod is part of a Japanese-style inshore rod series built to meet demand for high-end coastal tackle. The blank uses High-modulus 40T Nano Infused carbon, which keeps the rod extremely lightweight while balancing stiffness and sensitivity. Carbon X-Wrap technology reinforces the blank for added strength and improved casting accuracy. The progressive tip action suits working topwater lures, while the backbone through the mid and lower sections helps set the hook firmly and keeps fish clear of structure. The rod is fitted with FUJI SiC K-type anti-tangle guides and a FUJI reel seat, keeping weight down without sacrificing durability. Developed with input from a team of inshore anglers, it covers topwater applications along the coast.
