When you’re targeting sharks from the beach, your gear can’t have limits. The Okuma LBS Land Based Shark Rods are purpose-built for the hardcore angler who demands strength, durability, and total control when battling powerful fish from the sand.
At the core of each rod is a rugged blend of 24-ton carbon and E-glass blanks, delivering the perfect combination of sensitivity and brute strength. Reinforced with UMR (Ultimate Matrix Reinforcement) technology, these rods are designed to withstand extreme loads while maintaining structural integrity during long, punishing fights.
Every component is selected for maximum performance in harsh saltwater environments. ALPS HXN guides with Zirconium inserts provide smooth, durable line management, while select models feature upgraded hardware tailored for serious land-based shark anglers.
7’9” models are equipped with ALPS RX series roller tip guides to handle heavy drag pressures and reduce friction under extreme loads
7’6” models feature a machined aluminum reel seat and gimbal for rock-solid stability and control
7’9” models also include ALPS detachable aluminum butts, offering versatility and transport convenience
Designed to handle big baits, long casts, and brutal fights, the LBS Series gives anglers the confidence to push further and target bigger fish from shore.
Backed by a 3-year limited warranty, these rods are built to perform when it matters most, when the line is tight and the stakes are high.

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").
