Our West Coast Custom stand up rods are built with lightweight but durable 24-ton carbon and E-Glass rod blanks with 3K-woven carbon outer blank wrap for increased hoop strength and durability.
Top end components include ALPS RX series roller guides with 316-stainless steel rollers; machined aluminium, double-locking reel seat and detachable curved woven carbon fibre butt section for lightness and comfort during a long fight. Tapered shrink tube foregrips offer maximum durability and comfort.
An ALPS BSRXGT swivel roller tip guide is optional on the Heavy and Xtra Heavy models allowing a big fish to be fought from the rod holder or for deep drop fishing with an electric reel.
