anyfish anywhere Bass PRO MK1 surf rod12ft 6in - 100-175g

Overview

The Anyfish Anywhere Bass PRO MK1 12'6" is a light shore and beach surf rod designed to provide high-performance casting in a package that is significantly slimmer and more mobile than a traditional bass rod. It offers a balanced feel, ensuring that anglers can enjoy long sessions on the beach without fatigue.

Crafted on a slim, lightweight carbon blank, the rod measures 12'6" and has a total weight of approximately 650g. The 22mm parallel butt reduces bulk in the hand, while the fine 3.5mm tip provides the sensitivity required for detecting subtle bites.

Perfect For

Despite its name, this is a versatile shore rod that excels across a wide range of venues including beaches, estuaries, and rugged rock ledges. It is an ideal companion for anglers targeting bass with larger lures, fishing for wrasse and pollack, or casting clipped bait rigs for species like plaice, bream, and rays.

The rod has proven its capabilities in real-world testing, with successful catches of double-figure conger and various species of ray and smoothhound. This versatility makes it an excellent choice for anglers who want a capable rod that bridges the gap between light lure fishing and traditional bait fishing.

Technical Insight

The design prioritises a blend of responsiveness and control, utilising a 22mm parallel butt and a 3.5mm tip to ensure efficient energy transfer during the cast. The rod is universally rung, meaning it is specifically set up to accept either a fixed-spool or a multiplier reel depending on your preference.

A key advantage is the inclusion of a sliding Fuji screw winch reel seat, which allows you to adjust the position of your reel along the butt section. This feature is invaluable for fine-tuning the balance of the rod to match the weight and style of your chosen reel, ensuring maximum comfort throughout your session.
