These models incorporate the same great features as our other Salt Striker models, in actions that let you take advantage of this popular method of fishing. Features include sturdy 50/50 graphite/glass construction for fish-landing power, corrosion-resistant guides, graphite reel seats, foam grips and nylon gimbals. Most models now feature Batson Enterprises® SS316 stainless guides. The lower carbon content of this stainless steel provides better corrosion resistance than standard stainless. These guides endured the rigorous ASTM B-177 salt spray test for 50 days without signs of corrosion. Inserts are hard aluminum oxide to withstand the abuse of saltwater fishing.
