Quick take
A 5.5-foot heavy-duty 1-piece saltwater trolling rod with roller guides for big fish.
This is a one-piece, 5.5-foot heavy-power trolling rod with a fast action and a fiberglass blank, sized for the 80-120 lb line class. Six stainless roller guides keep heavy line moving smoothly, and an aluminum reel seat and cross-shaped butt give leverage when working big offshore fish like tuna. It suits boat anglers stepping up to conventional gear for saltwater trolling.
Best for
- Trolling for stripers, tarpon, and large saltwater species
- Boats where a heavy rod won't tire the angler on long battles
- Experienced anglers who expect to hook large, powerful fish
Skip if
- You fish light spinning tackle; this rod is specialty heavy only
- You cast from shore; trolling rods work boats and towed lines
Strengths
- Roller guides reduce friction on heavy lures and braided line
- 1-piece construction means no weak joints
- Heavy power handles 50-200 lb line and big fish strikes
Trade-offs
- Heavy rod tires most anglers on anything under 20 lb test
- 5.5 feet is short for most trolling; longer rods give better hook sets
- Roller guides wear and require saltwater maintenance
