Century SurfMachine Surf Rods Review

Not Worthy of Century

This rod seems to lack backbone. It does not cast as one would expect from a rod at this price. Forget this rod if you target bull drum or larger species in the surf.

Wide applications

I needed a single rod for throwing from light bucktails and metals to the big double hook swim shads that I could also use for chunking. Very happy I went with the 1SPOBD! It'll work with 3/4 ounce tins, but the sweet spot is above an ounce. It'll launch a big sinker a mile, and is also a great plug rod. My 706z weighs more than the rod, so the only downside is that I now have… read more a good excuse to buy a $900 reel.

Beautiful but not perfect

I use it for striper and sturgeon around Sacramento region. I able to cast out far enough but haven’t caught a big fish to test the rod ability though.

Worth the money

It’s kind of expensive rod when you see the price but after you have the rod in your hands it’s a different story. I have the 11.3 1-6 oz. it feels different to other rods I have, but I realize that you really can cast far on 1 oz to 4 whit 40# line. I fish for strippers on a very strong water currents and whit this rod I have no problem landing a big one. Is not super light… read more like g- rods but it’s way better and way stronger. Really god rod
