Tica 8' surf rod

Recived my rod in perfect condition. Extremely light but with serious backbone.

Nine foot rod!

This rod I used for a high low rig rod and it preformed well, the feel and action of this rod with the reel, a Penn Fierce 3000, was what I expected, how ever the reel was not!

What a Rod!!

This was purchased to upgrade my surf fishing set up. It definitely improved my casting distance but the best advantage I saw was it held my line high out of the rough surf. It held up well on 20 pound red drum and even one accidentally sting ray catch.

Nice quality rod, looks great !!

Big fan of tica rods. This MH 8’ rod is easy to fit when packing for trips, and handled decent size fish with ease. Note that the reel base is NOT wide for reels like 5000 series Penn models so I’ll be getting a new reel. See middle photo in pic

One Of My Favs!

Not sure why but I love fishing short surf rods, 7-8'. When I first took the rod out I felt like the butt section was too long. So I pulled the rubber butt cap off and cut 6" off and glued it back on. Now I absolutely love this rod for casting 3/4-1oz plastics to snook off the beach. Its ridiculously light. The tip is so sensitive and theres plenty of backbone when you need it. read more I just love the action of this rod. I paired it with a Penn Slammer 3500 and couldn't be happier. In the fishing game sometimes its necessary to make some modifications to your gear to get the results that you want. This is one of those cases. Now I have a sweet 7'6" rod for $70. Can't beat it!!!

Tica TC1 Surge Surf Spinning Rods Questions and Answers

Asked by Peter 4 years ago

What is the split for the 8ft? 

Bernie De Graaf 4 years ago

Hello Peter, the Tica tc1 surge surf rod is a 50/50 split 

Asked by Ben 4 years ago

Would this rod in 12 ft be able to easily handle 7_8 foot sharks and be paired with fin nor offshore 7500? Thank you

Alyssa Madosky 4 years ago

Both reel and rod will be able to handle the size sharks you are targeting. Also the rod will pair well with the reel as far as balance to size. However the fin - nor may be difficult casting long distances.

<span>Hi Luca, The Tica UKGA80MH2S TC1 Surge Surf Spinning Rod is a 50/50 rod split and the distance from the reel seat to the end of the rod butt is 15" inches. Please let us know if theres anything else we can assist you with. Tight Lines. </span>

Asked by Kenneth Moy 2 years ago

I am thinking of getting the 12' model.  From the picture, the rear grip (reel seat to rod butt) seems kind of short.  Is this really the case for the 12' model.

Brendan - TackleDirect Customer Service 2 years ago

<span>Hi Kenneth, The Tica UKGA12H2S TC1 Surge Surf Spinning Rod has a distance of 27" inches measured from the rod butt to the beginning to the reel seat. Please let us know if theres anything else we can assist you with. Tight Lines. </span>
