Shimano Saltie Rods Sale

Shimano Saltie Rods

There is nothing like a fishing rod which is built for purpose, made for the fish you’re targeting and built for the right location that you’re fishing.

The new Shimano Saltie Rods are for sale now at the fishing tackle shop, and they are a must-have for the Queensland and northern Territory angler, chasing the likes of barra and mangrove jack. We like the Saltie for Saratoga and Murray cod as well for the freshwater hunters.

The backbone of this series is the blank C4 construction. Each rod is incredibly strong. They are built for the rough stuff the north is famous for. The strength does not come at the expense of feel and sensitivity, however.

The lightweight rods have very fine diameters – perfect for casting fishing lures at massive barra all day long. Performance is crisp, responsive, and powerful. They instil confidence right at the time anglers need it most, that is when a meter + prize fish wraps you round a log.

The pedigree hardware includes Fuji K frame with Alconite guides. The guides have been added with the understanding that you will be tying pretty hefty leaders to combat the gnarly structure you’ll be working.

The natural cork grips will appeal to the more discerning angler. Nothing transfers the feel to the fisherman quite like quality cork grips.

The Shimano Saltie fishing rod is a distinctive looking rod with an exceptional talent for extracting the best out of Australia’s northern iconic species and their hunters. The Shimano Saltie rods are a precision, top-shelf fishing rod that will be appreciated by experienced anglers who demand a little more from their rods.
