Penn International V Standup Rods

Utilizing faster tapers and shorter blanks than those found on the V-Series IGFA Rods, International® V-Series Standup Rods offer anglers opting to fight standup-style greater mechanical advantages than the longer, parabolic rods needed for fighting fish out of the chair. Soft-tip sections that quickly taper into the powerful mid- and butt-sections of these rods offer anglers a comfortable fishing action capable of handling the extreme leveraged pressures typical of stand-up fishing styles. International® V-Series Standup Rods are a perfect rod for all big game fishing, and match perfectly with any of Penn’s big game reel families such as the International®, Graph-Lite™ Lever Drag, or Senator®. As with any of the International® Rods, wraps and thread selection are perfectly matched for a clean, custom look and feature only the highest quality components.

Within the V-Series Standup-Rod product line, there are four distinct families of rods; All AFTCO® Roller Rods (AR Designation), Roller Stripper & Tiptop Rods (RS/RF Designation), All “Turbo” Guide Rods (TS/TF Designation), and new for 2007, the International® Bluewater Rods.
