Product benefits

The SMITH Dragonbait Seabass rod is a reference for sea predator anglers seeking a reliable, responsive and comfortable tool. Designed for spinning bass fishing, it offers an ideal balance between tip sensitivity and butt power, allowing anglers to feel the slightest bite while easily controlling fighting fish.

Thanks to its construction in high-quality carbon, this rod stands out for its lightness and resonance. Every lure action is transmitted precisely and every contact with the bottom is clearly perceptible, allowing instant adaptation of retrieval and timely hook sets. It will suit both experienced anglers and enthusiasts looking to step up to a versatile seabass rod.

Technical specifications

  • Spinning rod specially designed for bass and coastal predatory fish.
  • High-modulus carbon blank—light, lively and strong.
  • Fast and progressive action to cast a wide variety of lures effectively.
  • Durable, corrosion-resistant guides suitable for braid or monofilament.

Advantages and key features

The SMITH Dragonbait Seabass was designed to meet modern anglers' demands. Light yet robust, it enables accurate, long-range casts even in windy conditions while maintaining excellent line control. Its heightened sensitivity helps detect the most subtle bites, especially when fish are wary or inactive.

Its tuned action allows effective work with soft plastics, crankbaits or casting jigs, making it a truly versatile saltwater spinning rod. It offers remarkable comfort of use whether fishing structures, beaches, estuaries or rocky areas. Choosing this rod gives the angler a product developed by a brand known for the quality of its blanks and the reliability of its gear.

Usage tips

The Dragonbait Seabass rod performs best with a saltwater-rated spinning reel loaded with quality braid and a fluorocarbon leader. It excels with soft plastics worked near the bottom, crankbaits recovered linearly or with stop-and-go retrieves, and jigs/casting jigs to target active fish in the water column.

To fully exploit its performance, adapt lure size and line strength to current, depth and target fish size. The rod is suitable for shore fishing (breakwaters, piers, beaches) as well as boat or RIB outings. Thanks to its careful design, it withstands intensive, regular use provided the gear is rinsed with fresh water after each sea outing.

Testimonials

Users appreciate the responsiveness and precision of this Dragonbait Seabass rod, which allows long casts while retaining excellent sensitivity. Many also highlight its comfort during action and the confidence it inspires when fighting larger fish.
