Sunset Jet Attack 14ft (4.20m) Surfcasting Rod | 100-250g

Dominate the Surf with the Sunset Jet Attack

Here at Gerrys Fishing, we know that when the tide is ripping and youre targeting hard-fighting species like Smoothhound and Rays, you need a rod that doesnt just copeit excels. The Sunset Jet Attack is a powerhouse surfcasting tool designed specifically for the angler who needs maximum performance without a premium price tag.

Built on a robust 24T carbon tapered blank, this 14ft (4.20m) beast offers the perfect blend of casting distance and pulling power. The three-section design features a reinforced put-in joint, ensuring the blanks integrity remains intact even under the immense pressure of a 6oz lead and a big bait.

One of the standout features is the inclusion of FUJI KW O RING anti-tangle guides. These are specifically designed to eliminate wind knots, making this rod a dream to use with modern braided lines. Whether you are fishing through a stormy winter night or a fast-running summer tide, the phosphorescent tip ensures youll never miss a bite in the dark.

Where to Use the Sunset Jet Attack

This rod is a specialist tool for demanding conditions. It is particularly effective in:

• The Bristol Channel: Perfect for handling the massive tidal range and the heavy leads required to hold bottom.

• Morecambe Bay: A fantastic choice for our local Smoothhound and Ray marks where you need to muscle fish away from snags.

• Deep Water Rock Marks: The 24T carbon blank provides the backbone needed to lift fish up through kelp or over ledges.

• Night Sessions: The glow-in-the-dark tip is a game changer for spotting those subtle rattle bites from Whiting or the slow pull of a Thornback Ray.

Gerrys Pro Tip

To get the absolute best out of the Jet Attacks tubular tip, try using a fixed spool reel loaded with 30lb 50lb braid and a tapered mono leader. The Fuji KW guides are built for this setup; youll find your casting distance increases significantly, and the bite detection through the carbon blank becomes incredibly sharp, even at 100 yards out.
