Shakespeare Salt XT Bass Expedition Rod 3.3m 56–112g — Travel-Ready Power for Saltwater Bass

The Shakespeare Salt XT Bass Expedition rod delivers exceptional strength and responsiveness in a compact 5-piece design. Built with premium 24T carbon and spigot joints, this 3.3 m fast-action rod maintains full performance while packing down to just 70 cm — perfect for travelling anglers targeting bass in saltwater environments.

Multi-Piece Engineering Without Compromise

High-grade 24T carbon construction and precision spigot joints ensure this 5-piece rod performs like a one-piece blank. The fast action and lightweight 412 g build deliver excellent bite detection and responsive hooksets, while the sensitive tip registers even cautious takes. Despite its compact transport length, the rod retains the backbone needed for 56–112 g lures and fighting powerful saltwater bass.

Saltwater-Proof K-Type Guides Prevent Tangles

Stainless steel K-type guides are specifically designed to prevent line entanglement around the frame — a critical feature when casting in wind or working lures through turbulent saltwater. The anti-tangle design reduces knots and breakages, keeping you fishing longer. The split-grip handle with shrink tube provides secure control in wet conditions, while the DPS reel seat locks your reel firmly in place.

The Salt XT Bass Expedition series is designed for mobile saltwater anglers who need full-size performance in a travel rod:
