Berkley Lightning Rod Shock Rods Perfect For Any Superline Fishing Situation
To be specifically designed for superline, the Lightning Rod Shock family features Aluminum Oxide guides that are diamond polished to a rich, black surface for strength, durability and reduced friction. These downsized guides help decrease wind knots and other line management issues while remaining lightweight and tough. In addition to sizes and actions best suited to superline, Lightning Rod Shock rods feature a Strike Amplifying Tip (S.A.T.), which blends fiberglass with graphite in the end of the rod, producing a slower-reacting tip that results fewer lost fish.
With a split-grip design that delivers more sensitivity and better balance with less weight, Lightning Rod Shock rods also feature a suspending reel seat that keeps the reel from dampening vibration and ensuring maximum sensitivity. 1K Power Helix construction produces extra strength in the backbone while remaining light weight, necessary for powerful hooksets and stress loads that are inherent when fishing with a superline.
Available in one and two-pc spinning and one-pc casting models with a variety of lengths, powers and actions to suit any fishing situation, Berkley Lightning Rod Shock rods run about $49.95-$54.95.

Alternating Low-Vis/Hi-Vis Colors For Easy Strike Detection Line detection is the key in so many fishing applications, anglers will go to great lengths to ensure that they never miss the slightest twitch for fear of missing a strike. Hi-vis lines can help, but they can be detected by line-shy fish.

gives anglers a line that’s easy to detect
Need to keep an eye on the line while trolling or during finesse presentations to detect strikes? Need a low-vis section of line to tie directly to tackle? Now anglers have both in one spool of line. Plus, determining how far out a bait is has never been easier since every low- and hi-vis section is 2.5-feet in length.
Also, since FireLine Tracer Braid is a true round braid with innovative radial construction, anglers can spool their casting reels with larger diameter line for big-fish applications. Available in lb test ranging from 15 to 80 lbs on 110, 300 and 1,100-yd spools, Berkley FireLine Tracer Braid has an MSRP ranging from $17.95-$139.95, depending on lb test and spool size.
