Phenix XG-4 XStreme Rod
-
Ideally suited for Striper Trolling with the perfect combination of backbone stiffness and tip flexibility
-
The rod is ideal for targeting 16-30+ inch stripers using rat-l-trap, P-line deep divers, and other diving lures
-
As a 7'11 one-piece S-Glass rod, the bite feel is amazing and every fight is epic
-
This rod is extremely sensitive but has enough power to get the fish going in the direction you need
-
It's a perfect choice for anglers who enjoy the fight as much as the catch itself
-
Phenix offers a limited lifetime warranty on their rods
The Kit Contains
Okuma Cold Water Reel
-
The reel perfectly pairs with the Phenix XG-4 kit rod
-
25 lbs. of drag balances the delicate sensitivity of the XG-4 by giving you enough power to control the fish and increase catch rate, even while enjoying the tremendous feel of the Phenix XG-4 rod
-
The mechanical line counter helps you keep track of your lure backset
-
This reel is highly adaptable and besides striper fishing, can be used for a variety of species including salmon, halibut, and just about all other 3 lbs+ fish types
-
1-Year manufacturer warranty
Two Top-Producing Lures
-
P-Line Predator-based custom-made Italian Stallion deep diving lure.
-
This lure is designed to dive 10-12 feet and should be fished 50-95 feet behind the boat in a 7-20 ft depth
-
Watch the tutorial for detailed advice and recommendations on using this lure. It's an absolute striper magnet.
-
Golden Boy, aka Spro Akuru Shad
-
The Golden Boy outfishes any other striper lure by a huge margin. Its fish production rate is only rivaled by the Italian Stallion.
Professionally Spooled
-
We spool your reel with 200 yards of 15 lbs test P-Line Flouroclear monofilament line before shipping
-
We recommend using mono connected directly to the snap swivel, which in turn connects to your lure
-
A set of recommended-size snap swivels is also included
-
Alternatively, you can use a braided line, which has its advantages, however, after countless guided trips our recommendation is to reduce the number of connections and improve the simplicity of re-rigging if you lose your lure and snap-swivel connector on the snag
-
Our tutorial video covers mono vs braid line consideration in some depth
