Okuma STLHD Casting Rod – 9’6″ – Heavy

Description

Purpose-Built for the Pacific Northwest. Engineered to Perform.

The Okuma STLHD Series Rods are designed from the ground up for the unique demands of Salmon and Steelhead fishing in the Pacific Northwest. Built in collaboration with STLHD Gear, this series blends regional expertise with advanced materials and precision engineering to deliver rods that excel in the toughest conditions.

At the core of the STLHD Series are responsive and durable 30-ton carbon rod blanks, offering the perfect balance of sensitivity and strength—ideal for detecting subtle bites while maintaining the backbone needed to battle powerful fish. For trolling applications, select models feature moderate tapered 24-ton carbon blanks, delivering the forgiving action needed to keep fish pinned during long fights.

Every component of the STLHD Series is carefully selected for performance and reliability. Sea Guide deep press guides with Zirconium inserts provide smooth line flow and long-lasting durability, while the double-locking Sea Guide Alien reel seat ensures a secure, stable connection under heavy loads. Spinning models are equipped with a premium Fuji TVS reel seat, offering enhanced ergonomics and all-day comfort.

Finished with premium 3K woven carbon fiber fore and rear grips, these rods provide a lightweight, ultra-durable feel with a modern, high-performance look.

Whether you’re drifting rivers, side-drifting, or trolling big water, the Okuma STLHD Series is built to help you fish harder, longer, and more effectively.
