Penn Retaliate X Slow Pitch Jigging Cast Rod The PENN Retaliate X slow pitch jigging rods are made in a one-piece design to ensure a perfect feel without interruptions. These rods give you full control of your lure, even at depths of several hundred meters. The butt section is made almost entirely of EVA so that you can feel every vibration of the lure even at depth. The use of carbon components makes the rod very light, so you can fish all day long without tiring.
