All fishing rods are Click & Collect only from our store in Newport.
The BlackRock Competition Surf 2G 14ft 10in Rod is a high‑performance shore rod built on a slim, powerful 40T high‑modulus carbon blank. Designed for long‑range surf casting, it delivers an excellent blend of casting power, bite detection, and fish‑playing control, making it ideal for mixed ground beach fishing across the UK coastline.
The tubular power‑curve tip offers both sensitivity and strength, allowing you to register small bites while still handling larger species with confidence. Rated for 100–200g casting weights, the rod performs at its best with 170g plus bait, giving you the optimum load for distance casting with modern rigs.
The Competition Surf 2G features a stunning burgundy metallic finish with matching whippings, complemented by Fuji Alconite SiC KWAG guides for smooth, reliable line flow. Designed for use with either fixed spool or multiplier reels, it offers true versatility for different casting styles and fishing situations.
An adjustable critical balance weight system is built into the butt section, allowing you to fine‑tune the rod’s balance for your preferred reel and casting style. A Fuji screw reel seat and epoxy‑finished ends complete a premium build designed for serious surf anglers.

Split shipments and mixed orders
Items fulfilled from different locations or in different shipping profiles may be dispatched separately. Shipping rates and free‑delivery thresholds are applied per shipping profile. For example, if a reel and frozen bait are fulfilled from different profiles, the bait may be charged its next‑day rate even if the combined order value exceeds £85. We will always try to minimise the number of shipments, but operational constraints (temperature control, storage location) can require separate dispatches.
