The Salty Stage, a rod suitable for all fish species and suited to any saltwater game, has undergone a full model change for the first time in 10 years.
This rod employs Abu Garcia's proprietary TAF (Triarchy Force) blank manufacturing method, previously reserved for high-end models.
The blanks are made from 100% domestic carbon and completely unpainted, and are equipped with FUJI SiC-S guides.
The XLSS-992M40 is a light shore jigging model.
This rod maximizes the casting distance of the most popular 30-40g metal jigs, with stiffness and length for easy control.
This is the perfect rod for beginners looking to easily target bluefish from embankments or rocky shores.
Target species include bluefish such as yellowtail, shio, and Spanish mackerel, as well as small to medium-sized fish like red sea bream, flounder, flathead, and sea bass.
The TAF blanks deliver powerful butt section that can withstand unexpectedly large catches.
It comfortably handles minnows, topwater plugs, and metal jigs up to 50g.
