But Penn's Battalion Surf Spinning Rod provides power in spades, thanks to its tough, 2-piece graphite composite blank and rugged Fuji aluminum oxide guides. It's an excellent companion for battling the unforgiving surf and adding some hardware to that trophy wall.

Just what I was looking for
Just got a new round baitcasting reel and I was looking for a 2 piece rod with some backbone that could cast some cut bait and a couple ounces of lead and decided this rod (BATSF1220C10) was a good candidate. Tried it out with a 2oz egg sinker and was very satisfied with how well it casts. I plan on fishing with it in a couple of days and will do another report when I catch some fish with it.

Preliminary review
I purchased 2 Battalion 10 ft surf spinning rods rated 12-20 lbs and I totally agree with some of the reviewers here that this rod is heavy and stiff for its rating. This is not necessarily bad though. I have a 10 foot Okuma Cedros surf spinning rod rated 15-30 lbs and the Cedros is definitely more flexible and weighs slightly less. I like that the Battalion is stiff because here in Hawaii we fish from the cliffs. I am hoping that this rod will cast as far as the Cedros. This rod is definitely not for whipping lures in my opinion unless you have a muscular build and has strong arms. I will update this review once I get to use these rods for a while. Hopefully I will catch something that will put these rods to test.

Everything I hoped for
I got this rod (9' medium light) for casting lures from shore and this rod can cast 1oz+ weight lures with gusto. With lighter lures, it does ok, so I'm very happy with my new saltwater rod. Also, the photos online don't do it justice. This is a good looking rod. I've paired it up with a SSV4500 and 30lb Power Pro.

New to surf fishing. Finally decided on a Penn Battalion 10’M looks great with a BG 5k. Light but not “cheep”. Comfortable and effective.

The best customer service!
Penn sent me another rod to replace a minor defect in a rod I just purchased. I now have two rods. I would not hesitate to buy from them again. Thank you Penn!
