Overview

The Golden Catch Vittor VTS-802MH is a fast-action spinning rod built for lure fishing, combining a two-piece carbon (graphite) blank with a manufacturer-rated casting weight of 7-32g. Measuring 2.44m (approximately 8ft), it carries a medium-heavy power rating that sets it apart from the lighter models in the Vittor range.

The rod's EVA split-grip handle gives it a modern spinning-rod feel, while WeBo guides fitted with SiC inserts handle line management through the cast and retrieve. A soft protective transport sleeve is included, and the two-piece construction breaks down to a manageable transport length for travel between marks.

Golden Catch markets the Vittor series primarily for freshwater predator spinning, but its dimensions and casting rating have also made it a rod worth considering for UK shore lure anglers looking for a well-specified two-piece spinning rod.

Perfect For

With a 7-32g casting rating, the Vittor VTS-802MH suits artificial lures within that weight window, including metal casting lures and soft plastics mounted on jig heads - remember the jig head and softbait combined must sit within the stated range.

Its length and casting specification also make it a potential option for bass lure fishing, pollack spinning and general shore lure fishing using suitable tackle. These are practical application suggestions based on the rod's dimensions rather than manufacturer-confirmed saltwater certifications, so anglers fishing in corrosive environments should factor that into their buying decision.

Technical Insight

A fast-action blank concentrates bending towards the upper section of the rod, which typically rewards anglers who want direct lure control and sharper bite detection - useful when working lures at range or feeling for subtle takes. The medium-heavy power rating works alongside this action to handle the upper end of the 7-32g casting range without feeling overly stiff at the lighter end.

The split EVA handle keeps the grip arrangement simple while giving a secure hold during casting and retrieval, and the SiC-lined WeBo guides are built to run braided line smoothly, matching the rod's recommended PE #0.8-1.5 braid rating. The two-piece build, with its 127cm transport length and supplied protective sleeve, makes the Vittor VTS-802MH easier to pack down and transport between fishing sessions than a comparable one-piece rod.

What is the casting weight of the Golden Catch Vittor VTS-802MH and what lures will it cast?

The manufacturer rates the Vittor VTS-802MH for a 7-32g casting weight. This suits metal casting lures and soft plastics mounted on jig heads, though for weighted soft plastics the jig head and softbait combined must sit within that 7-32g range - it isn't a guarantee that every lure in the range will cast equally well.

What braid should I use with the Golden Catch Vittor VTS-802MH?

Golden Catch recommends a braided line rating of PE #0.8-1.5 for this rod. Keep in mind that PE numbers are a line-size reference rather than a fixed breaking strain, since actual strength varies between manufacturers and products.

Is the Golden Catch Vittor VTS-802MH suitable for bass fishing?

Its 2.44m length and 7-32g casting range make it a potential choice for bass lure fishing, pollack spinning and general shore lure fishing. However, Golden Catch markets the Vittor series primarily for freshwater predator spinning and doesn't explicitly certify this model for saltwater use, so this is a suggested application rather than a manufacturer-confirmed saltwater rating.

What's the difference between the Golden Catch Vittor VTS-802M and VTS-802MH?

The VTS-802M has a 5-25g casting range and medium power, while the VTS-802MH reviewed here has a 7-32g casting range and medium-heavy power. Both are 2.44m, fast-action, two-piece rods, so the MH gives you a higher top-end casting weight and a stiffer power rating.
