These rods are designed to provide the best value possible without sacrificing performance or quality. The pure black finish is beautiful and elegant, but also practical. We made sure to use the high quality components where it counts. These rods are a great high-end practical choice, and they’ll let you put more money towards that dream reel. Designed to deliver the best in offshore performance. These rods are built on a lightweight yet powerful blank that has the right amount of flex so that it does a lot of the work when fighting a big tuna. They have been outfitted with top of the line wind-on roller guides that are lighter in weight than other guides and allow your swivel to pass through them. We’ve fished and handled a lot of standup rods over the years and this is simply the best. If you love fishing offshore and want to do some serious trolling for tuna, outfit your boat with a one of these rods. You are going to love them!
