After years of field testing and development we are proud to finally offer our “Expedition Special” Travel rods to the public!
These rods are built on a state-of-the-art composite blank that after extended testing enabled us to retain that "crisp" graphite feel while imparting the necessary durability and ruggedness we wanted from our premium travel rods!
These rods are unlike most high-end light tackle rods in that they have a wide effective range, both in casting weight as well as line rating!
The Medium (M) and Medium Light (ML) version of the rod come as a 8’10” 3-Piece model and both are right at home fishing from 1/8oz or so on up to 1oz lures, with the 3/4oz weight thats so popular with 110 size jerkbaits being the sweet spot!
The Heavy (H) version of the rod is offered as a 7’6” rod in a 5-Piece configuration. This rod excels with lures from 1/2oz to 2oz and makes a marvelous swimbait and hardbait rod in the jungle, as well as being able to double as a wait-and-bait rod for bottom fishing or lob casting rigs up to 8oz total for catfish and other river predators!
During testing we put these rods up against everything from Pacu and Payara to Dorado and Wolffish as well as Redtail Catfish, Goonch and even massive River Stingrays and Arapaima! They perform flawlessly in every application we tried!
Features:
- 8’10” Lengths in the 3-Piece Models
-7’6" Length in the 5-Piece Model
- Line Ratings: ML (6-20lb), M (10-30lb), H (30-80lb)
- Lure Ratings: ML (1/8oz-1oz), M (1/4oz-1.25oz), H (1/2oz-2oz *more if bait fishing*)
- Microwave Guide System
- Minimalist Full Length Handle for Casting Distance
- Modern High-Tech Composite Blanks
- European Style Ferrules (do not attempt to force the rod joint to a flush position!)
Purpose built for the most intense fishing situations on the planet, these rods are unlike any other light tackle rod currently offered, custom or otherwise. These ultra-modern blanks manage to remain crisp, and light in the hand while maintaining a durable and forgiving action that makes them uniquely suited to target both small surf critters as well as large river game on light tackle!
