The new Rockaway HD Surf Rods are designed to be fished by the discriminate angler who is looking for the perfect surf rod. These well-built and competitively priced rods are built on a light and responsive 24/30-ton, low resin carbon rod blank that was designed to load up and cast for great distances. These blanks also feature Okuma’s UFR-Ultimate Flex Reinforcement tip technology. This process blends unidirectional fiber over 24-ton carbon in the extended tip section of the rod to increase lifting strength and power by as much as 400%. This technology provides for the ultimate in strength without sacrificing sensitivity.
With six total spinning models within the Rockaway HD family, you are covered from 9-foot all the way to 12-foot applications. The following lengths and actions are available. 9-foot Medium, 9-foot 6-inch Medium Heavy, 10-foot 6-inch Medium, 10-foot 6-inch Medium Heavy, 11-foot Medium Heavy, and 12-foot Heavy action.
What separates the Rockaway HD from the standard Rockaway are the components. The Rockaway HD features the 24/30-ton low resin carbon blank as well as the UFRII tip technology. The 70/30 tip over butt ferrule connection gives this rod a true one-piece feel that you can really load up and cast as far as possible. They also feature deep pressed SeaGuide XQH 316-Stainless Steel guide frames with Zirconium inserts for both braided and monofilament lines. Okuma’s Double Locking reel seat really locks your reel in place for extra security. Rockaway HD comes standard with a minimal grip with a textured shrink tube for all day, long casting comfort while out on the beach.
Proposition 65 is a California law that applies to companies selling products in California. Proposition 65 requires warnings if a product contains any listed chemical present above very low levels. Proposition 65’s warning standards are among the most stringent in the world. Proposition 65 is not a product safety law, but rather a "right-to-know" law. Businesses are required to provide warnings to comply with Proposition 65.
There are over 800 chemicals on the Proposition 65 list, which is administered by California's Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA), a part of the California Environmental Protection Agency. The list includes naturally occurring and man-made chemicals. Proposition 65 warnings can be seen for a wide variety of everyday consumer products, including electronic equipment, and warnings can be seen posted throughout California in a variety of establishments such as buildings, hotels, restaurants, coffee shops, and stores.
Why do you see the warning on our packaging and website?
The warning is part of our ongoing effort to comply with the California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (known as "Proposition 65").
