SMITH Dragonbait Seabass LX Rod

Dragonbait Sea-Bass LX, premium spinning rods for saltwater and freshwater fishing

A versatile range designed for demanding anglers

The Dragonbait Sea-Bass LX series was originally developed for sea bass fishing, but its premium design makes it suitable for a wide range of applications, both in saltwater and freshwater. It is aimed at anglers looking for a light, sensitive, and powerful rod capable of casting effectively, animating lures with precision, and maintaining control over hard-fighting fish.

Thanks to its controlled elasticity, the Sea-Bass LX range allows greater casting distance while remaining very easy to use. It also offers the ability to cast at medium range without effort — an important advantage during long sessions or when conditions require repeated casting.

A technical construction in the service of power and lightness

The Dragonbait Sea-Bass LX rods feature a HelixNano carbon blank derived from advanced technologies. Its helical construction around the mandrel improves torsional resistance, power, and overall lightness. This design maintains excellent precision in lure animation and strong reactivity on the strike.

The Fuji SIC Titanium guide train promotes smooth line flow, reduces rod weight, and improves information transmission. Combined with a Fuji reel seat and a single-piece high-density EVA handle, it offers excellent fishing comfort and a superb grip.

Models suited to every technique

The Dragonbait Sea-Bass LX 5, 25 g is designed for anglers seeking maximum sensation, with excellent lure feel and a strong power reserve. Its fast action is perfectly suited to soft lure fishing and hard lure fishing.

The 7, 28 g version is the finesse rod of the range. Highly tactile, it is ideal for light fishing, in saltwater as well as freshwater, particularly when stealth, precision, and bite detection are essential.

The Sea-Bass LX 10, 30 g is designed for linear or fly-casting techniques. It is particularly effective for sea bass, but also for pike-perch in rivers, thanks to its excellent balance of sensitivity, control, and power.

The 10, 40 g model offers an interesting length for shore fishing and for anglers who appreciate longer rods on a boat. Its progressive action gives it excellent casting qualities, with genuine versatility for migratory species, shore sea bass, and fishing in salt marshes.

The 20, 60 g version covers classic saltwater fishing with soft lures, hard lures, and casting jigs on surface blitzes. It is a highly versatile model for anglers who want a powerful rod without sacrificing comfort.

The Sea-Bass LX 20, 90 g is designed for heavier fishing, particularly for pulling techniques targeting sea bass and pollack. It is also suitable for large lakes, where the use of larger lures and control over powerful fish are required.

Finally, the Dragonbait Sea-Bass LX 40, 120 g meets the most demanding applications in the range. It is suited to large sea bass, pollack on wrecks, meagre with large soft lures, and freshwater pike.

A complete range to cover a wide variety of situations

With its various power ratings, the Dragonbait Sea-Bass LX range allows you to choose the rod precisely suited to your fishing style. The lighter models prioritize finesse, sensitivity, and precise lure animation, while the more powerful versions provide the reserve needed for heavy fishing, large lures, and the most hard-fighting saltwater or freshwater fish.

This series is aimed at anglers who want to invest in a technical, durable, and high-performance rod capable of moving from finesse fishing to more demanding applications depending on the model chosen.
