Quick take
Stainless steel roller guide for boat trolling rods, reduces line wear.
This is a silver stainless steel roller tip-top that replaces the end guide on a boat or trolling rod, so the line runs over a pulley instead of sliding through a ring. It comes in 5, 6, 7 and 8 mm inner diameters to match the tip of your rod, and this version is the 5 mm size. At about 30 g, it suits anglers who troll offshore and want a roller at the rod tip.
