Tenryu Super Mix 240 Travel (7 10 10-60g)

The Legendary Do-It-All Travel Companion.

At Gerrys Fishing, we often describe the Super Mix as having a split personalityand we mean that as the ultimate compliment. The blank is constructed from a hybrid blend of 87% High-Modulus Carbon and 13% Glass Fiber.2 This specific mix allows for a progressive tip that provides extreme sensitivity for feeling soft plastic ticks, paired with an incredibly powerful butt section that can stop hard-fighting saltwater species in their tracks.

Unlike many travel rods that feel dead or have flat spots at the joints, Tenryus precision engineering ensures the action remains seamless across the three sections. Whether you are launching a 15g patchinko or vertically jigging a 60g metal, the Super Mix 240 Travel handles it with the legendary responsiveness Tenryu is famous for.

Technical Specifications

Key Performance Features

• Hybrid Blank Construction: The infusion of glass fiber into the carbon blank is the secret to its durability and Super Mix action. It provides the crunch needed to cast lures far, while the glass content adds a level of robustness that pure carbon rods often lack when fighting big fish.

• Fuji Titanium K-Series Guides: These premium, saltwater-resistant guides are designed to be tangle-free. This is essential when using light braids in windy conditions on the coast.

• Exceptional Casting Range: The rod truly comes alive across its entire 10-60g rating. It is subtle enough to animate surface lures like the Patchinko II but stiff enough to work deep-running shads and metals.

• Spigot Joint Technology: Tenryus spigot joints are world-renowned for their fit and finish. They maintain the rods through-action, making it feel like a high-performance 1-piece rod despite being a travel-friendly 3-piece setup.

• Distinctive Tenryu Red: The iconic red finish isnt just for looks; it represents the pinnacle of Japanese rod building. The finish is highly resistant to the corrosive effects of saltwater and UV rays.

Versatility in the Field

The Super Mix 240 Travel is designed for the roving lure angler:

• Shore-Based Bass Fishing: The 7 10 length is the sweet spot for shore lure fishing, offering enough length for long casts while remaining short enough for precise lure manipulation.

• Exotic Travel: Because it packs down to 84cm, it fits into most standard suitcases. It has successfully accounted for dozens of species worldwide, from European Bass and Pollack to Barracuda, Snapper, and small Tuna.

• Boat & Vertical Jigging: While designed primarily for casting, its powerful butt section allows you to use it for light vertical jigging (up to 100g) over reefs and wrecks.

• The Always Ready Rod: Its compact size makes it the perfect rod to keep in the boot of your car for those just in case sessions after work or while on family holidays.
