For Fishing in California:

• Surf Fishing:
  • Why It Works: The rods’ lengths (8'6" to 14'0") and medium-heavy to heavy power ratings (e.g., 8-20 lb line for 10'7"–13'0" models, 30-65 lb line for 8'3"–9'6" popping models) are ideal for long-distance casting from California’s beaches, piers, or rocky shores. The split butt design and zirconium guide inserts ensure smooth line flow for braided or monofilament lines, critical for casting heavy lures or baits into the surf.
  • Target Species: California surf species like surfperch, corbina, barred perch, halibut, and striped bass.
  • Technique Details: Use models like the HWM-S-1072MHb (10'7", 8-20 lb line, 1/2-2 oz lures) or HWM-S-1302MHb (13'0", 8-20 lb line, 1/2-2 oz lures) for casting soft plastics, swimbaits, or metal spoons into the surf zone. The longer 12'0"–14'0" models (e.g., HWM-S-1402MHb) excel for reaching deeper troughs or beyond breaking waves.
  • California Locations: Ideal for beaches like Santa Monica, Huntington Beach, or San Diego’s Mission Bay, where long casts are needed to reach feeding fish.
• Popping and Surface Lure Fishing:
  • Why It Works: The shorter, heavier models (e.g., HWP-S-832MHb, 8'3", 30-65 lb line, 30-160 g lures; HWP-S-832Hb, 8'3", 50-100 lb line, 90-200 g lures) are specifically designed for popping, with the backbone to throw large surface lures and handle explosive strikes. The rods’ fast to moderate-fast tapers provide the responsiveness needed for working poppers or stickbaits.
  • Target Species: Yellowtail, bonito, and occasionally tuna or dorado (mahi-mahi) when they move closer to California’s coastal waters.
  • Technique Details: Use large poppers or stickbaits (30-200 g) with the 8'3" popping models for aggressive surface presentations. The rods’ ALPS-316 stainless steel guides and TPE foam grips ensure durability and comfort during high-energy retrieves.
  • California Locations: Effective around Southern California’s Channel Islands or coastal kelp beds (e.g., La Jolla, Point Loma) where pelagics like yellowtail feed near the surface.

All models are 2 piece rods.
