A LARGE proportion of my fishing time over the last twelve months has been spent lure fishing our estuaries. During this period I’ve had the opportunity to field test a really versatile light threadline rod from the Samaki K2 range.
The Samaki SK2-701SL is a very classy 7-foot, 4-8lb spin rod. It has quickly become my go to light threadline stick for fishing soft plastics, vibes, hard bodies and surface lures for bream, whiting and dusky flathead.
Recommended casting weights are 1/16 to 3/8 ounces. The premium type 1 carbon blank delivers superb casting performance with excellent sensitivity. The build quality is first rate with all the top grade componentry you expect in a high performance light spin rod these days including Fuji KR Concept Guides, custom painted Fuji reel seat and premium cork grips.
If you’re looking at purchasing a light spin rod for estuarine lure fishing I’d suggest you have a look at the Samaki K2, it’s proven to be a superb estuary all-rounder for me. I also think the Samaki SK2-701SL would be ideal for light trout and bass luring in the freshwater too.
