Okuma Cortez Spinning Rod 2.23m

Okuma Cortez Spinning Rod — Built for Hard-Fighting Sea Species in Northern Waters

The Okuma Cortez is a purpose-built boat rod for serious saltwater fishing in destinations like Norway and Iceland, combining a lightweight carbon blank with saltwater-grade components.

Designed for Jigging and Bait Fishing in the North Atlantic

With a 12–20 lb casting weight and a 2.23 m length, this rod handles the demands of pirk (vertical jigging) and natural bait fishing for large, powerful species. The carbon blank keeps overall weight at just 298 g, reducing fatigue during long sessions from a boat.

Saltwater-Ready Components That Last

SIC (Silicon Carbide) guides offer excellent line flow and resist the corrosive effects of saltwater, protecting both the guides and your line over time. The robust EVA handle provides a secure, comfortable grip in wet conditions, while the stable reel seat keeps your reel locked firmly in place under pressure.
