Spinning rod SMITH Dragonbait seabass 9.6

Smith Sea-Bass 96 H spinning rod

A saltwater rod designed for shore fishing

The Smith Sea-Bass 96 H has been developed to meet the expectations of experienced anglers looking for a high-performance spinning rod for coastal fishing. It is particularly suited to sea bass fishing from beaches, jetties and rocky shores, where casting distance and precision are decisive.

Part of the Dragonbait Sea-Bass series, this rod benefits from a design focused on sensitivity, control and efficiency in the marine environment.

Casting distance and animation precision

Thanks to its soft tip, the Sea-Bass 96 H allows distant spots to be reached with long, consistent casts. This action also promotes good lure feedback, ideal for maintaining contact during animations, even at long range.

It retains excellent sensitivity for working soft lures, hard lures and jigs effectively, while offering the control needed to fish cleanly in exposed areas.

Power reserve for sustained fights

The power reserve located in the butt section provides the strength needed to control fast and powerful fish. This rod allows you to take on sea bass with confidence, as well as combative species such as bonito and Atlantic bonito.

Its construction ensures a good compromise between lightness, reactivity and power, maintaining precision without sacrificing safety during the fight.

Versatility and comfort during long sessions

The Smith Sea-Bass 96 H proves very versatile for saltwater lure fishing. It is at home with casting jigs, hard lures and soft lures, making it a rod suited to a wide range of coastal situations.

Its ergonomic handle improves fishing comfort and reduces fatigue during long sessions, especially when making repeated casts from the shore. The three-legged guides enhance the reliability of the whole setup during intensive use in the marine environment.
