Dark Matter Planet X Slow Pitch Jigging Spinning Rods are built for fishing with jigs. These are Japanese style slow pitch jigging rods. They start with Dark Matter carbon blanks that are designed to maximize the action of slow pitch jigs. This means a soft tip with a rod that flexes completely through the length of the blank. They are outfitted with Fuji Alconite K Guides that are made for fishing braided fishing lines. To reduce weight these rods feature very little from the reel seat down but what they do is very important. The foregrip is short but fat EVA for comfort. The rear of the rod is a split grip with custom shaped EVA at the back end so when you tuck it under your arm it feels right. A polycarbonate gimbal eliminates the rod spinning in the holder. As with all rods from Dark Matter, they finished off these great slow pitch rods with a splash of color. A Carolina Blue paint job with matching wraps with a touch of white really makes this rod stand out from the crowd. It looks as good as it performs and will give you even more happiness on the water, which is always welcome.
Dark Matter Planet X Slow Pitch Jigging Spinning Rods are 5'8" and available in two models. Choose from a 340g and 500g models. While they are intended for slow pitch jigging, many anglers enjoy these rods for inshore fishing. They are a lot of fun to fish and get sold hookups!
Models: PXSJS58340, PXSJS58500

ANGLERS ARE ASKING
The Dark Matter Planet X Slow Pitch Jigging Spinning Rod is designed specifically for slow pitch jigging using a spinning setup.
It allows anglers to use the slow pitch technique while fishing with spinning gear instead of a conventional reel.
Slow pitch jigging is a technique where the rod is used to actively work the jig, creating a controlled lift and fluttering fall.
The rod loads and unloads to give the jig its action, making it a key part of how the lure moves through the water.
Both rods are designed for slow pitch jigging, but the spinning version is built to be used with a spinning reel instead of a conventional jigging reel.
This can feel more familiar to anglers who are used to spinning setups, while still allowing them to fish the slow pitch technique effectively.
A 4000–6000 size spinning reel paired with braided line is ideal for this rod.
Braided line provides the sensitivity needed to feel the jig’s movement and detect subtle bites, which is critical for slow pitch jigging.
If you are already experienced with slow pitch jigging and prefer maximum control and efficiency, a casting (conventional) setup is typically the more traditional choice.
This rod is best suited for anglers who want to apply slow pitch techniques using spinning gear.
