The SALMON FIELD KIT has the stopping power to handle salmon in both the saltwater and when they return home to the rivers they came from. The medium-fast action rod is easy to cast and will handle even the largest of salmon, but you'll need more than just a good rod to land these creatures. That is why we paired it with a RUN reel and a RIO Products' RIO GRAND fly line. No matter if you're nymphing for salmon in the Great Lakes or swinging for them in Alaska, the SALMON FIELD KIT is ready for your next adventure.

Great set up for fresh water

"This is a great set up. I have landed tons of hard pulling salmon, rockfish, and other species on this set up. The rod casts like a dream paired with the rio outbound short(different from included line)! But I don't recommend using it in saltwater like they say. I washed the rod and, shook off excess water, and stored properly after every use in saltwater and it still seized up the drag. It did last me two years but when it is marketed to fish saltwater I expect it to handle it better than it did. Even with that draw back it is a fantastic setup but just for fresh water. The drag system isn't sealed to protect it from the salt."

Excellent rod and reel combo.

"Excellent rod and reel combo. Perfect for those smaller Lake Ontario tributaries for steelhead. Casting is superb. The reel is top notch for those screaming steelhead fights, that they are so known to give. 5 stars all the way!"
