Top 4 Casting Rods

Casting rods are perfect for top water plug action with comparatively heavy line. Their shorter length and heavier backbone allow wrist action to make a plug walk. The better rods will have a fast taper and comfortable hand grip.

1. Shimano Teramar Southeast Casting Rod

This is a highly responsive rod with a TC4 blank that combines a double layer of T Glass with inner and outer spirals of high-modulus graphite, for superior strength without added weight. The action is crisp and dynamic, enhanced with Fuji New Concept Hardloy guides, a Fuji reel seat and Grade A cork handles with hook keeper. It comes with a manufacturer's limited lifetime warranty. Nice rod.

2. Offshore Angler - Inshore Extreme Casting Rod


These rods are custom-built for the inshore angler. Thay are built for the inshore angler pursuing redfish, speckled trout, and snook. The HM-54 graphite blanks are laid up with a new computer-generated design for unsurpassed strength and sensitivity. The actions have been tuned for tossing lightweight lures and popping corks, and a heavy backbone for setting the hook on a speck without ripping his lips off.

3. All Star "Big Boy" Rod

These rods feature the best of everything: premium high modulus IM10X graphite blanks with titanium-coated stainless steel guides, 'Sensa Touch' blank-thru reel seats and premium cork handles. They can move really big fish away from structure and though they appear to be over built and oversized, they're incredibly light and strong.






4. St. Croix Tidemaster Inshore Casting Rods


Made for throwing plugs and bucktails at stripers or blues, ripping tube lures past a voracious barracuda, or subtly dropping a crab on the nose of a permit or bonefish, these rods can do it all. Lightweight. Perfectly balanced. With precise casting accuracy and fish-fighting power. All rods feature premium 1-pc, SCII graphite blanks featuring specialized taper designs to maximize your presentation. Fuji Hardloy guides and Fuji reel seats.
