The Moonbeam shines where the action is: on the water after dark.
B’n’M’s new Moonbeam Catfish Rods
By Keith “Catfish” Sutton
Across the country, more catfish anglers are hitting the water after dark, and rod makers are taking notice. B’n’M Poles has teamed up with Mossy Oak to release their new Moonbeam catfish rods, a sharp-looking, tough-as-nails series built specifically for the job.
These rods feature the eye-catching Mossy Oak Blacktip wrap and are designed with the muscle to handle trophy-class cats. An aluminum reel seat locks down the biggest reels, while nine steel guides provide durability and smooth line flow under heavy loads. Add in a wire lure keeper sized for beefy catfish rigs and a digital-graphic handle that gives the rod a modern edge, and you’ve got a piece of gear that’s both functional and stylish.
At the heart of the Moonbeam is a nearly indestructible E-glass blank. It’s built with a medium-fast action and medium power, making it versatile enough to handle everything from channel cats to flatheads. With a line rating of 10 to 40 pounds and the ability to throw 1- to 8-ounce baits, this 7-foot, one-piece rod is purpose-built for serious catmen.
Available in both spinning and casting models, and offered in bold orange or chartreuse, the Moonbeam rods are easy to spot on the water, even under a dim glow of blacklight or headlamp.
Whether you’re suspending live bait for flatheads or chunking cut bait for channel cats or blues, B’n’M’s Moonbeam series gives you the confidence and backbone you need when the real work starts.
Bottom line: These rod aren’t just about looks. They’re built for battle when the night bite gets heavy.
