The Newest Rockaway Edition:)

I love these 2 lightweight editions. And i do mean lightweight! Only 2 2pc 8'6" models. The ML is only 4oz. FOUR OUNCES?! And the M is only 4.4oz. These were made for the S.California Surf Perch anglers by Okuma as Okuma started the Rockaway wave for the Sea Perchers off the Oregon Coastline initially.

To be honest i really like this rod! It's not often that i can handle such a light surf rod at 8'6". During my shooting i couldn't think of the right spinner & size for this rod. At first i was trying on the Inspira 30 as it was the same colors. Looked good & hardly no weight. But i found an unused reel in the box that was perfect & had fresh line on it. The new ITX 3000. So that'll be my spinner for this rod.
