The Okuma Dead Eye Pro + Safyre 2500A rod and reel combo is specifically designed for walleye fishing using jigging and bottom bouncing techniques. The ultra-responsive 30-ton graphite rod is paired with the Safyre 2500A reel featuring 7+1 stainless steel bearings for a reliable and high-performance freshwater combination. The set is available in 6' and 6'6", both in 2 pieces.
Features and benefits of the rod • Ultra-responsive 30-ton graphite blank: the high-density construction offers maximum sensitivity to detect subtle bites during jigging and bottom bouncing for walleye.• Sea Guide XO-316 stainless steel guides with zirconium inserts: angled guides reduce line twist and zirconium inserts accept braided line without premature wear.
• Specialized stainless steel tip guide: the design prevents inserts from coming out during intense fights with fish.
• Split-grip cork handle: the design lightens the rod and enhances sensitivity transmitted to the hand when animating lures at depth.
• 2-piece construction: both models easily disassemble for transport and storage without compromising performance.
