Berkley Lightning Rod 5'6" (168 cm) Light Moderate 2-Piece Spinning Rod

Berkley Lightning Rod 5'6" (168 cm) Light Moderate 2-Piece Spinning Rod

The Berkley Lightning Rod 5'6" (168 cm) Light Moderate 2-Piece Spinning Rod is designed around a light-power blank with moderate action to help keep pressure on fish and reduce pull-outs when using small hooks and light line. Its shorter 5'6" length improves handling in tight shorelines, smaller boats, and around cover, while still providing accurate casts with light baits. Rated for 4–8 lb line, it’s well suited to finesse jigs, small spinners, micro crankbaits, and live-bait rigs for trout, panfish, and other light-tackle freshwater species. The two-piece construction makes transport and storage simple without giving up everyday usability on the water.
