The Savage Gear Revenge SG2 Drop Shot Rods are specialist predator rods for anglers who fish soft lures on controlled, vertical or near-bottom presentations. They sit in the SG2 family as purpose-made drop shot rods rather than general spinning blanks.
The range covers three useful lengths and casting ratings: 2.13m with 2-12g, 2.33m with 5-18g, and 2.51m with 8-28g. That gives anglers a choice between lighter canal or short-range work and stronger setups for bigger venues or heavier rigs.
Savage Gear uses 24+30T high modulus carbon blanks. This keeps the rods responsive enough for feeling small plucks and changes in lure contact, while still giving enough backbone for predator fishing.
A solid tip is included for bite registration. That matters with drop shot work because takes can be subtle, especially when a lure is held in place and worked with small movements. SeaGuide CCS stainless steel guides with SiN rings manage the line path, while Double Lock reel seats help keep a spinning reel secure during repeated casting and lure work.
Each rod is supplied with a Competition Ready-To-Fish rod bag. Overall, this is a focused drop shot option for perch, zander and pike anglers who want sensitivity first, with model choice matched to venue size and lure weight.

| SiN guide rings | Smooth guide rings help line pass cleanly through the rod during repeated lure work. |
