Frequently Asked Questions
Saltwater Rods Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What makes a rod suitable for saltwater fishing?
Saltwater rods are built with corrosion-resistant components and stronger construction to handle larger fish and harsh marine environments.
Q. What size rod is best for saltwater fishing?
Rod size depends on the species, but longer rods with medium-heavy to heavy power are commonly used for saltwater fishing.
Q. Can I use a freshwater rod in saltwater?
You can, but it’s not recommended long-term. Saltwater can corrode components and freshwater rods may not handle larger fish as well.
Q. What type of reel pairs with a saltwater rod?
Spinning, baitcasting, or trolling reels can all be used depending on your fishing style and target species.
Q. What fish are saltwater rods used for?
Saltwater rods are used for species like salmon, halibut, lingcod, and other coastal fish found around Vancouver Island.

6 " Pedestal Mount
This pedestal worked out amazing well. I used to for the line puller to give me the added height to easily grab either the crab pots or prawn traps when reaching the boat. I attached it directly to the boat with the swivel mount on top of it. I am glad I opted for the 6" vice the 12" which I was originialy planning on using. It would have been too high.

Great sturdy jacket
I ordered the rain pants first, and then liked those so much I ordered the jacket as well. I use both for back country canoe trips, where I need my rain gear to stand up to moving vigorously day after day in the rain. This does the trick.
Excellent service and very good selection

Excellent design to help land the bigger fish and also less entanglement if the fish is to be released so less stress on the fish. Quality seems great with a double sleeve for the hoop. Hint -make sure you can disassemble the net hoop from the neck slide—I used a 24 soak in 30% vinegar to break down 15 years of salt corrosion of the aluminum slide joints
