Penn Carnage II Jigging Rods are designed to accommodate the compact reels that anglers use to achieve greater drag pressures with braided lines. Penn Carnage II Jigging Rods are incredibly pleasant rods to fish with as they are lighter, use top of the line components, and have slower actions than comparable rods.
  • SLS3 blank construction
  • Fuji K guides with Alconite inserts
  • Non slip foregrip
  • Pac Bay aluminum reel seat

the day this rod arrived I paired with a Penn slammer 3 10500 with Sufix 832 80 lb braid. I went to Honey park in Thunderbolt Georgia. After about an hour I caught a Sting ray that had to weigh 30 pounds this pole had no problem with the weight. I will be buying another one
Prossmall and strong

The old Bluewater Carnage series were excellent rods but these new versions with aluminum Pacbay reel seats and bumpy foregrips are even better. I paired the heaviest (80-200) spin model with a Torque-9 with 100# spectra for large tuna.

Haven't had a chance to use this yet. But, I can say that it pairs up with my Penn Slammer III 10500 beautifully. It is a very light weight, sturdy rod. Can't wait to jig with it!

Penn Carnage II or Shimano Trevala?  I'd love an opinion since both are the same price.  
1 Answer
Van,


Both the Shimano Trevala and Penn Carnage II Jigging Rods are great rods at that price point. The Trevala has been around for a long time and has been one of the most popular jigging rods out on the water due to their impressive power to weight ratio and versatility. Deciding between the two would really come down to personal preference, but one factor I'd consider between the two is that there are more options within the Trevala lineup. Doesn't necessarily make it a better rod, but having all of the options with varying lengths and recommended jig weights for each rod allows anglers to get dialed in a bit more for a specific application. Carnage II only has 3 models each between spinning and conventional, maybe not the best if you are wanting to get more technical with your jigging gear.  I personally have had a Trevala for about 10 years that has held up well while mostly being used for jigging up yellowfin, grouper, and even some hand crank deep dropping for tilefish. GIve us a call if you need some more help deciding between the two, we can certainly help if you are looking to use either for a specific application or matching with a certain reel.

Witch one of these rods would be good for a slammer 4500? I was thinking the medium. The carnage boat rods also go lighter if that one is too heave thanks.
1 Answer
I would recommend the M above all the the other rods. The 5500 Slammer would be a better fit for the M rod.
