Description
We believe the two most important factors in a steelhead rod are line control and SENSITIVITY. No matter where you fish or which technique you choose, there’s a steelhead rod that offers you maximum CONTROl. If you fish small coastal streams, you can get by with a shorter rod. If, on the other hand, you frequent big, wide rivers, longer rods are definitely the way to go (for a variety of reasons, including optimum line angle, river drag and sensitivity). As for sensitivity, it doesn’t matter whether you plunk, drift-fish from shore, or use a boat: knowing what’s going on at the end of your line is absolutely crucial for successful steelheading. These fish may be big, but for the most part their bite is incredibly subtle. That’s why we DESIGN these rods with a fairly soft tip and the most sensitive materials possible. Select the rod that matches your angling situation and be sure to give careful consideration to the different levels of graphite performance available. This winter steelhead rod provides the extra power necessary to fish higher water conditions and swifter currents. On average, winter steelies run larger than their summer cousins, so the extra backbone is a big advantage. Rated for up to 17-pound line, the 1025C is beefy enough for Chinooks, but better suited for chums, sockeyes and cohos. Designed for winter steelhead where you need a rod with a little more backbone because of the higher water conditions and swifter current. It’s a good combination of power and durability thanks to Gl2. If you’re looking for a utility rod that can fish spoons or spinners and still handle small fall salmon and winter steelhead, this is a good choice.
