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. Same specs here as on the 1082C, only in a spinning rod. Perfect for summer-run steelies in low, clear water conditions and 6 to 8-pound line. A nice light-duty summer-run steelhead spinning rod, designed to fish 6 & 8-pound line and small sinkers in low, clear water. It has a light, responsive tip with a soft mid-section that allows you to make delicate casts with small lures or bait to spooky fish. There’s still plenty of power in the butt-section so you can handle “oversized surprises”. It’s a really good choice for casting small spoons and spinners on big water and you’ll appreciate the extra casting distance you can achieve for casting lures for rainbows or browns from shore on the Great lakes or other big freshwater impoundments.
