Tronixpro Guerilla Flattie GT 11 (1-3oz)

The Ultimate Lightweight Finesse Tool for the Shore & Estuary.

There is nothing quite like the savage rattle of a Flounder or the delicate tap of a Plaice, and the Tronixpro Guerilla Flattie GT is designed to make sure you feel every single one. At 11ft, this rod is a world away from a heavy beachcaster; it is a lightweight, fast-tapered scratching rod designed to be held for long periods, allowing you to stay in constant contact with your terminal tackle.

At Gerrys Fishing, we know that estuary and surf fishing require a specialized touch. The GT (Glass Tip) hybrid technology provides a hyper-sensitive top section that registers the tiniest bites, while the 1K carbon-weave butt ensures there is plenty of backbone for setting the hook quickly or handling a surprise school Bass.

Why the Flattie GT is a Must-Have:

• Hyper-Sensitive Hybrid Tip: The spliced-in tip is designed for one thing: bite detection. It highlights everything from a cautious Dab to a ferocious Flounder, finished in high-viz white for easy spotting in the low light of a rising tide.

• Lightweight Hold-All-Day Design: Weighing significantly less than a standard shore rod, this 11ft blank reduces arm fatigue. Its perfect for wandering a beach or active estuary fishing where youre constantly moving with the water.

• Fast Taper Power: Dont let the 1-3oz rating fool you. The fast taper means the rod shuts off quickly, providing the snap needed to set the hook at distance or steer a fish through a running estuary current.

• Premium Build Quality: Features a 1K carbon-weave butt for strength, metal collars on the spigot for longevity, and premium anti-tangle K-Guides that handle thin mono and braid with ease.

Where to Use It (Pro Recommendations)

• Estuary Scratching: The natural home of this rod. Ideal for fishing the gutters and mudflats of the Wyre or Lune estuaries. Use it with a 2oz plain lead and a 3-hook flapper rig for maximum fun.

• The Surf Zone: When the Flounder and Plaice are sitting just behind the first breaker, this rod allows you to flick baits into the zone with pin-point accuracy.

• School Bass Hunting: Perfect for light-line fishing for schoolies. The forgiving tip prevents hooks from pulling, while the mid-section has enough power to handle a 3lb+ fish in the surf.

• Pier & Promenade Finesse: If youre fishing straight down the side of a pier wall or a promenade for mini-species or flatfish, the 11ft length is much more manageable than a full-sized beachcaster.

Gerrys Tip: This is the ultimate fun rod. Because its so sensitive, even a 1lb Flounder feels like a monster. We recommend pairing this with a small 3000 or 4000 size fixed spool reel and thin 20lb braid for the ultimate direct-feel setup.
