West Coast Custom Tuna Rod

Description

West Coast Custom Tuna Rods are built on 24-ton carbon and E-Glass blanks, with an E-Glass core wrapped in a 3K-woven carbon outer layer that increases hoop strength and durability. Under normal use these rods are virtually unbreakable. All components are top quality. The guides are 130 lb class ALPS RX series ball bearing roller guides with 316 stainless steel rollers. The rollers are shielded to stop modern superbraid lines slipping between the guide and the frame, and each guide runs on two stainless steel sealed ball bearings for smoothness and minimal line wear. Reel seats are Alps CAH-F aluminium, sized for 50 to 80 lb class reels. The detachable short curved butts for stand-up fishing are made in woven carbon fibre for strength and lightness. Available in Heavy (H) and Extra Heavy (XH), there is a model for everything from Porbeagle and Thresher sharks, heavyweight Halibut and Skate through to the biggest Bluefin tuna or Grander Marlin. The Heavy (H) and Extra Heavy (XH) models can be specified with an optional ALPS RX series Swivel Roller top guide for greater line control when deep fishing for swordfish or deep-water heavyweights. The finish is impeccable, with all guides under wrapped and no corners cut. - Durable 24-ton carbon and E-Glass constructed rod blanks - 3K-woven carbon outer blank wrap improves hoop strength - ALPS RX series ball bearing roller guides with 316 stainless steel line rollers - Optional ALPS RX series Swivel Roller top guide - Detachable short curved Graphite butt with ALPS machined aluminium reel seat - Long tapered foregrips for maximum leverage when fighting big fish - Superb Custom quality finish - Part No. PWCCH: Line Rating 80 - 150 LB, Length 5' 10", Action HEAVY, Guides 4 + TIP, Tip Guide ROLLER - Part No. PWCCHS: Line Rating 80 - 150 LB, Length 5' 10", Action HEAVY, Guides 4 + TIP, Tip Guide SWIVEL / ROLLER - Part No. PWCCXH: Line Rating 100 - 250 LB, Length 5' 10", Action EXTRA HEAVY, Guides 4 + TIP, Tip Guide ROLLER - Part No. PWCCXHS: Line Rating 100 - 250 LB, Length 5' 10", Action EXTRA HEAVY, Guides 4 + TIP, Tip Guide SWIVEL / ROLLER
