Fiblink 1-Piece/2-Piece Saltwater Offshore Heavy Trolling Rod Big Game Roller Rod Conventional Boat Fishing Pole with Roller Guides

Strong well built and perfect for deep sea fishing the roller guides are smooth handles big fish effortlessly highly recommend!

The rod is a little bit on the heavy side, but it's a solid construction. Bought it with an Okuma Convector reel, 65 pound Suffix 832 coastal camo for a fishing trip in Cuba. This was a very strong, yet inexpensive kit I'd recommend. It was still easy to feel the lure movement and fish biting, bringing back nice barracuda felt easy.

Sehr gut verarbeitet, schönes Design, guter Preis und ich freue mich schon darauf Sie dieses Jahr einzusetzen mit Corona oder ohne da draußen mit egal !!!

Many people in Socal have been buying Madmac lures and have been trolling fast (10-14 knots) but trolling fast requires a heavy trolling rod as many of the bluefin caught trolling range between 50-100+lbs. my buddy had bought a fiblink last year and had no issues with his rod. I was a bit skeptical about buying this rod as I would assume it does not have all the same components like found in the major brands like shimano, calstar, seeker,etc. I have some nice rods and all i care about is getting rod that is the best bang for your buck. I purchased the 80-120lb straight butt trolling model and paired it with a Penn International visx20 with 600 yards of 100lb braid. I have read in the about the guides being off and looking at this rod, the guides are inline. Another complaint was people have reels feeling a tad loose when they tightened the nuts as much as possible. This reel seat is used to accomadate many reel sizes and will say it fits very well with the penn international 20 visx. I would recommend using a shimano tld 30, penn international 16 and bigger reels meant for trolling. I will give this rod a 5/5 as its stout and will be used for trolling fast for these bluefin. I did see reviews of guys buying the 50-80lbs rods for bluefins up to 50lbs and the rod had snapped. I’m not sure if the line ratings are true so I went ahead and bumped up a size so it can accommodate more strength so we will see. I will make an updated review but in the meantime, im very satisfied for the best bang for your buck trolling rod here in southern california. ***Update*** Found Bluefin on 9/10/23 10 miles out from Dana Point Harbor and was trolling Spreader Bars when I got hit by a 80+ bluefun. Our fault was not having the boat in gear but we fought the fish a good 20 minutes before the fish spit the hook out. Got another strike again and we were good. The rod held its rating and will say we got a rod from the good batch so Im happy with the purchase. Again best bang for your buck with decent materials competitive to all the major offshore fishing brands here in Southern California

Nice rod

Very nice pole and comes with top protector and a nice cover too!
