Shakespeare Salt XT MX Surf Rod and Salt 70 Reel Combo

Description

The Shakespeare Salt XT MX Surf rod has a fast taper blank that gives quick tip recovery, making it suited to fishing fast tidal waters such as those found around the UK coastline. It is paired here with a Shakespeare Salt Surf reel that offers a large line capacity and a smooth retrieve. The Salt XT MX Surf is a fast progressive blank that offers easy long range casting as well as maximum bite detection. The use of high grade carbon keeps the blank very slim and low in weight. A sliding reel seat lets you position the reel wherever you prefer to get the best from your casting, and the whole butt section is covered in an X-Shrink wrap for maximum grip. The rod can be used on clean and mixed ground beaches for general species including bass, cod, rays, flatfish and whiting. - Shakespeare Salt XT Surf rod 12ft 9" - Shakespeare Salt 70FD Surf reel - Spool 20lb mono - Spool 50lb shockleader Rod features: - High grade slim carbon blank - Suitable for use with multiplier reels - Sliding reel seat - SW proof zirconium oxide guides - Lightweight and responsive blank with sensitive tip for bite registration - X-Shrink wrap casting grip - Tip highlight Rod specifications: - Length: 12ft 9" - Sections: 3 - Casting: 4-8oz The Shakespeare Salt Surf reel has a large line capacity spool and a spare spool, allowing you to cast the distance needed to reach fish beyond the breakers.
