Beulah G2 Opal Surf Two Hand Rod # 7/8 - 11 ft Coastal Seatrout & Big Trout

The Surf Fly Rod from the G2 Opal Saltwater family is an updated version of the popular Platinum series, a favorite among saltwater anglers. Why the update? Because Beulah’s rod designers were confident they could combine the beloved characteristics of the original series with the advantages of cutting-edge blank technology—thanks to the introduction of graphene resin! Graphene’s unique matrix structure enhances the carbon fibers’ structural integrity, making the blank exceptionally robust while remaining incredibly lightweight. This exclusive material blend results in rods that impressively stand out with their low swing weight, noticeable from the very first cast.

These outstanding features have won over fly fishers in both fresh and saltwater environments, leading to the release of another rod in the G2 Opal Saltwater series: the Beulah G2 Opal Surf. This rod was specifically designed for targeting species like roosterfish from the beach, where quick and effortless casting, even with large flies, is crucial.

In smaller rod classes, these same qualities have also gained popularity among seabass anglers, as the rod excels in delivering flies with just one or a few overhead casts. It also shines in underhand casts like snap-T or spey casting, offering noticeable power and ease even when paired with sinking lines. This makes the rod an excellent choice for steelhead fishing and for targeting salmon and sea trout in smaller rivers. Thanks to its fast action and minimal oscillation, the G2 Opal generates tight loops that cut through the wind with remarkable distance. Furthermore, the rod boasts ample power reserves, not just for boosting casts but also for taming the toughest predators. The advanced material blend is paired with the signature blank properties of the Beulah Opal series: a fast blank with exceptional recovery speed. The new blanks not only reduce the rod’s weight and swing weight but also eliminate unwanted lateral vibrations, enabling clean and tight loops with ease. Overhead two-handed casts feel effortless, as the rod loads smoothly and releases energy into long, powerful casts.

The rod’s design and craftsmanship are flawless. The stylish dusk-blue blank features premium stainless steel snake guides and titanium stripping guides, all expertly wrapped and finished. The AAAA-grade cork handle with subtle embellishments feels exceptional in hand, complemented by a beautiful, anodized aluminum reel seat with dual locking nuts.

The Beulah Opal G2 Surf Fly Rod is an ultralight, high-performance fly rod, perfect for pursuing seabass, smaller roosterfish, or river fishing for steelhead, salmon, and similar species.
