June Rod of the Month: The gw Customs gwV 9’4″ Travel Rod

This month’s spotlight goes to a build that proves performance doesn’t have to stay home. The gwV 9’4″ Travel Rod is engineered for anglers who want true surf‑rod power in a compact, go‑anywhere package. Breaking down into four 30″ sections, it packs easily into luggage, backpacks, and truck compartments — without sacrificing sensitivity, backbone, or casting efficiency.
Why This Rod Stands Out

- Travel‑Ready Design — Four-piece construction with tight ferrule tolerances for seamless action.
- Guide Layout — Optimized for long casts, smooth line flow, and durability on the road.
- Versatile Ratings — Built to handle a wide range of lures and conditions, making it a true multi‑species travel companion.
