XESTA Catapult Light Spec S72ML

Technical Inshore Light Casting Specialist

Built under the concept of "lightly bending and enjoying inshore casting games," the Catapult Light Spec S72ML is a multi-purpose offshore casting rod designed for maximum technical versatility. Featuring a high-modulus, fast-taper blank, it generates outstanding casting distance and pinpoint accuracy with minimal effort. It handles casting jigs up to 80g and plugs up to 70g without strain.

Engineered to adapt seamlessly across minnow jerking, blade jigging, vibration lures, and topwater plugging, this rod provides the finesse required for delicate lure presentations paired with a powerful butt section to overpower unexpected big fish. It is an exceptional tool for targeting Skipjack Tuna, Mahi-Mahi, Spanish Mackerel (Sawara), Medium-Sized Pelagics, Seabass, and Rockfish.
