SAMURAI fishing rods, makers of the recently released Kestrel and Inflict rod ranges, has yet another new range rolling off the production line – Elevate. These rods are designed for bluewater fishing applications and like all Samurai rods have been carefully constructed using advanced techniques and components to produce an affordable, lightweight and strong package.
Using a completely new Samurai blank recipe, Elevate rods have been tested thoroughly and tweaked just the right amount. The series features models from the ELE-16-F70 8-16lb light offshore spin rod all the way through to the ELE-50-F70 30-50lb heavy duty spin rod.
The makers say each rod and blank combination is unique with each adjusted perfectly to suit every model and create a finely balanced finished product. The versatile blank is perfect for lure casting or as a bait fishing all rounder. The heavier sizes are even capable for use as a trolling outfit for mackerel; the 50lb makes for a great light
popping rod or for reef fishing.
As with all Samurai fishing rods, quality Fuji components are a standard feature, with Alconite K Series Guides and a Fuji DPS reel seat finishing off the build.
The new Elevate rods sell for around $300. Look out for them at your favourite tackle store.
