With just about one month left in 2025, I’m making bold predictions about the new surf rods and surf reels that might arrive in 2026! How many of these guesses will come true? We’ll find out in mid-January 2026. Enjoy the video and make your own predictions!
🎣 This is the second field test for surf fishing (Japanese whiting) with the recommended guide and reel seat positions set by the manufacturer. Filmed at Terayama Beach, Itoshima (Fukuoka).
