We Designed These Rods To Pull Salmon And Steelhead Plugs Like The Infamous Hot Shot (hence The Name), And That’s Still Their #1 Use. But You’ll See Anglers Casting Them For Silvers, Trolling Them For Big Kings Or Drifting Bait With Them For Steelhead. The Rods Have Light To Medium Tips And Magnum-power Butt Sections, Which Make Them Excellent Casting Tools And Even Better Fish-fighting Tools. If You’re Unfamiliar, The Hot Shot Technique Goes Something Like This… The Angler Positions His Boat At The Head Of A Run And Allows The Current To Pull The Plug Down To The Fish Zone. The Boat Then Sweeps Across The Current So The Plug Covers The Entire Width Of The River (lure Action Is Then Monitored By Watching The Wiggle Of The Rod Tip). When A Fish Hits, The Magnum Butt Section Actually Sets….

We Believe The Two Most Important Factors In A Steelhead Rod Are Line Control And Sensitivity. That’s Two Reasons Why We Build Our Steelhead Rods In Such A Wide Variety Of Lengths And Power Ratings. No Matter Where You Fish Or Which Technique You Choose, There’s A Steelhead Rod That Offers You Maximum Control. If You Fish Small Coastal Streams, You Can Get By With A Shorter Rod.

Backbouncing Is A Special Technique Used Primarily By Northwest Steelhead And Salmon Anglers. To Fish A Pool Or Run, Heavy Lead Is Used To Put Your Bait Right On The Bottom And, With The Help Of The Current, Literally Bounce Your Bait Downstream, Keeping It Right In The Fish’s Face. Consequently, The Rod You Choose Depends On The Power Necessary To Lift The Weight Off The Bottom And Still Have Sufficient Power To Set The Hook With Authority. A Heavy-duty Rod With A Stiff Tip Is Crucial, Because Many Times The Fish Are Smack Dab In The Heaviest Current And You Need A Lot Of Lead.
