Sceptre Tarpon Tournament Series 7 FT Live Bait Spin Rod
The Sceptre Tournament Series 7 FT Spin Live Bait Rods are the perfect rods for those anglers who fish for both Tarpon as well as Stripers. Our rod features a fast action tip with lots of backbone. Ideal for fishing live baits off the bottom, slow trolling, or drifting.
Features:
Fuji Reel Seats
All our Sceptre Tournament Series 7 FT Spin Rods feature Fuji reel seats. This is the standard size Fuji spin reel seat.
When I designed Sceptre Fishing Rods I took into account the many design flaws that I found to underperform when fishing offshore. One of these flaws are reel seats that tighten from the butt up towards the rod tip. This type of reel seat alignment is not only impractical due to the reel coming loose and getting lost overboard, but such alignment can also cause injury if the reel flys off the reel seat.
Fuji Silicone Carbide Rod Tip:
The Fuji SIC Rod Tip guides were designed to take the punishment of the new Spectra braided fishing lines. I chose to use the Fuji SIC tip to assure the utmost performance as well as to prevent the rod tip guide failure commonly seen in other rod tips.
Fuji Hardloy Guides
Fuji Hardloy Guides are offshore heavy duty framed aluminum guides.
Slick Butt:
We use the hard plastic slick butts with epoxied EVA underneath to provide a tight fit of the slick butt to the through butt rod construction. This feature prevents the reel seat and butt from dis-alignment over time. Our rods will always maintain the reel's alignment with the guides.
Nylon Gimbal:
We use a hard plastic nylon gimbal on all our rods. While aluminum makes for an excellent gimbal, it will also scratch gelcoat. I have found that replacing a nylon gimbal is far less expensive than gelcoat repairs. Our gimbal will not scratch your gunwale or your deck.
Lure / Hook Keeper:
All our Sceptre Rods feature a lure / hook keeper built into the rod. The keeper allows you to attach your hook or lure to the rod instead of one of the guides. This also avoids the need of having to wrap the leader around the reel. The lure / hook keeper allows for faster deployment of your bait or lure.
Rod Blank:
All our Sceptre Rods are build on indestructible blanks. Short of running the rod over with a lawn mower, these blanks will take a bend from big fish! I have caught everything from Pacific Sails, Yellow Fin Tuna, to Kingfish, and the blanks have all performed flawlessly. The fast tip allows for a super enjoyable fight, while the backbone will facilitate landing the fish.
If you fish SKA/FLW or other tournaments, our Sceptre Tournament Series Rods are the perfect choice. Please feel free to call or email me if you have any questions regarding our Sceptre Fishing Rod line.
