Golden Catch New Sprinter 902M8ft 10 - 7–28g

Overview

The Golden Catch New Sprinter 902M is a 2.70m spinning rod designed for anglers who require additional reach when fishing with lures. Built on a carbon blank with a tubular tip, this two-piece rod balances its medium power rating with a fast action to provide a responsive and effective fishing experience.

As the longer counterpart to the 2.40m model in the New Sprinter range, this rod maintains the same core performance characteristics while offering an extra 30cm of length. At 192g, the design remains manageable for coastal use, ensuring you can fish for extended periods without undue fatigue.

Perfect For

The 7–28g casting range makes this rod an excellent choice for light-to-medium lure applications. It is well-suited for working metal casting lures, soft plastics rigged on jig heads, and various hard-bodied lures.

Shore anglers will find the extra length particularly beneficial when working lures along the coast. It is a dedicated spinning tool ideal for targeting species such as bass and pollack, though it is not intended for heavy bottom fishing or beachcasting.

Technical Insight

The fast action focuses the rod's flex towards the tip section, which provides the precise control needed for jigging or working hard-bodied lures with animation. The tubular tip construction complements the carbon blank to preserve a lightweight feel while ensuring the rod remains reactive during retrieves.

For balanced lure presentation, the rod is designed to be paired with a braid line rating of 8lb to 15lb. This ensures that the tackle setup is appropriately matched to the rod's medium power and casting capabilities, providing the sensitivity required for coastal lure work.
