A long takedown trolling rod for salmon downrigger water A 10'6" medium heavy downrigger rod tuned for salmon and steelhead trolling from the Pacific coast to the Great Lakes — strong lower section for the release, soft tip for hooksets on soft-mouthed fish. Built for Pacific and Great Lakes salmon downrigger water Designed for downrigger trolling — Pacific salmon out of Westport, Ilwaco, Sekiu, and Sitka; Great Lakes kings, coho, and lakers out of Ludington, Manistee, Oswego, and Sandy Pond. The takedown joint breaks down for travel and the long blank gives the load a downrigger release demands.
