Skeater Chaser Deadbait Stalking Rod

Description

The Chaser range from Skeater is a small, focused line-up of classic deadbait and stalking rods built for value and blank performance. The 30T through-action blanks let you cast softer deadbaits cleanly and securely, reducing the risk of losing the bait mid-cast, while the butt section retains enough power for a solid hook set at longer range. The handle is a hybrid mix of natural cork and black and grey camouflage EVA, with an ergonomic foregrip. The rods are fitted throughout with a double-leg, braid-friendly Zirconium (ZrO2) guide set and an anti-frap tip guide, and the sloped-frame guides help cut line tangling with braid and on longer casts. They suit a wide range of deadbait methods, from float fishing and legering to paternoster rigs, and are available in 9ft, 10ft, 11ft and 12ft, covering everything from stalking small stillwaters, rivers and canals to large open pits and boat fishing.
