The Penn Ally II Short Bent Butt Trolling Rod is a premium offshore rod built for serious big game anglers who demand strength, reliability, and maximum performance when targeting powerful species such as the biggest bluefin tuna, marlin, and shark. Built using Penn’s advanced X-Wrap technology, the tubular glass blank delivers increased strength and durability while preventing blank twist under extreme pressure, giving anglers greater control and lifting power during hard-fought battles. The tip section is fitted to the aluminium butt with the excellent Pac Bay reel seat. Despite its immense power, the rod still maintains a responsive action that helps reduce fatigue over long fights.
Designed with a short bent butt configuration, this rod sits perfectly in the fishing butt pad / harness, and provides improved line angles and enhanced comfort when fighting fish from the chair or stand-up position. The bent butt setup keeps pressure lower on the angler while maintaining excellent leverage and control during demanding offshore conditions.
The rod is fitted throughout with premium Pac Bay roller guides and a heavy-duty Pac Bay reel seat, ensuring smooth line management, reduced friction under heavy drag settings, and maximum reliability when paired with modern big game reels and braided or mono line setups. These high-quality components make the Ally II exceptionally well suited for tackling powerful tuna and other hard-running offshore species.
