Walleyes are infamously finicky fish, but the new lineup of Bass Pro Shops® Walleye Angler Casting Rods and Walleye Angler Spinning Rods offer the diversity you need to present persnickety walleyes the bait exactly the way they want it.
Whether the day’s winning technique is jigging, rigging, bobber fishing, casting to a windblown point, or dragging cranks behind planer boards or downriggers, the Bass Pro Shops® Walleye Angler line has the right rod for the task. Developed and recommended by legendary walleye tournament pros Gary Parson and Keith Kavajecz, these rods incorporate exclusive Carbon Coil Technology with RT4 graphite for maximum strength and sensitivity, and extreme light weight. Integrated cushioned reel seats hold the reel secure and provide comfortable, non-fatiguing grip. Spinning rods and non-trolling casting models feature a heat shrink, coated EVA mid-grip so anglers can get a firm, fish-fighting grasp. The EVA handles for trolling models are designed for quick removal from rod holders and ultimate comfort while wrestling walleye.
Catching a limit of ‘eyes is often all about feeling light bites, so rigging and jigging rods especially demand maximum sensitivity. The whole Bass Pro Shops Walleye Angler line features stainless steel guides. These optimize transmission of every vibration and tiny change of weight on the line to the rod blank and, ultimately, to your hand.
In spinning rods, the Walleye Angler line ranges from 5 foot 9 inch to 7 foot, 1-piece and 2-piece models for baits from 1/16 ounce to ½ ounce. Casting/trolling rods range from 7 feet to 12 feet in 1-piece, 2-piece, and telescoping designs.
