Sceptre Tournament Series Kite Rod & Penn Senator 4/0 Combo
My Sceptre Tournament Series Kite Rod is hands down the best kite rod you will ever use. Unlike other kite rods where the reel tightens toward the rod tip, resulting in a loosened or lost kite reel, the Sceptre Tournament Series Kite Rod features an aluminum butt where the threads tighten towards the butt. This feature serves the following purposes:
A. The reel will not come loose when running offshore
B. No need to "tighten" the threads when kites are deployed
C. The reel tightens on to the rod as you run offshore
Each rod features a Fuji SIC Guide, Silicone Carbide Guide, rod tip. The Fuji SIC guides were designed for use with the new Spectra braided fishing lines. The Spectra line as well as the SPRO swivels will not harm the tip. This is a very important feature because the guide will not fail while the kite is in flight. Given the cost of fishing kites and release clips, the last thing you want is a kite setup that is lost due to the failure of the rod tip.
The Sceptre Tournament Series Kite rod measures a full 36 inches. This allows the angler to easily clip the line to the release clips at a comfortable arm's length, no need to reach out! In addition to the aluminum reel seat, the rod features a heavy duty slick butt, as well as an EVA foregrip.
I designed Sceptre Fishing Rods after years of fishing with rods that under-performed. There are many "cheaper" rods to choose from, however none will perform like our Sceptre Rods. Please feel free to email or call me if you have any questions regarding our line of Sceptre Tournament Series Fishing Rods. All of our rods are made here in the USA by expert craftsmen.
The Penn 113 4/0 Black Plate reel features a powerful low retrieve ratio, which allows the Angler to reel in the kite with little effort. Contrary to popular belief, most kites will create a substantial amount of resistance when reeled in. This is due to both the diameter of the kite, as well as wind speed. The lower retrieve of the black plate Penn Senator facilitates kite retrieval, as well as adjustments while the kite is in flight.
