Shakespeare Salt Boat Spinning Rod 702 2.1m 12–20g

Shakespeare SALT Boat Rod 702 – versatile saltwater fishing from boat and kayak

The Shakespeare SALT Boat Rod 702 combines a sensitive 2.1 m graphite blank with robust saltwater-proof components at an excellent price point, making it the ideal choice for targeting cod, pollock, and other saltwater species from boats of all sizes.

Powerful carbon composite blank for distance and control

The graphite composite construction delivers the backbone needed for far casts and fighting strong fish, while maintaining enough sensitivity to detect subtle bites in deeper water. The moderate-fast action provides a versatile balance between casting performance and fish-playing control, allowing you to work lures effectively and land fish confidently.

Saltwater-proof hardware built to last

Stainless steel guides resist corrosion in harsh marine environments, while the strong DPS reel seat holds your reel securely even during hard fights. The split-grip EVA handle design offers excellent grip in wet conditions and is easy to clean after each session, ensuring your rod stays in top condition season after season.
