These unique rods were designed by Mediterranean tuna experts to provide a cost-effective solution when trolling and are designed with a spiral guide placement that wraps around the rod allowing the line to follow the fighting curve. When bent, the line is held away from the blank by the guide placement producing a better action with minimal side twist, allowing maximum pressure to be applied. With a name like Vengeance you just know that the blank will be up to any challenge it faces. And it has to be, because nothing in the Mediterranean fights with the combined power, speed and determination of an angry tuna. Equipped with very strong Shimano Hardlite rings that can overcome the pressure of thinner mono and braid, an aluminum Shimano reel holder will hold the larger multiplier reel securely, allowing you to lower the handle with confidence. Despite its undoubted strength, the two models in the Vengeance range retain great fishing action under extreme pressure, and in tests have compared very favorably with much more expensive rods. Available in 50-pound and 80-pound sizes, the seamless one-piece design is never overloaded and still retains additional flexibility, even when you push it to the extreme. An ergonomic EVA handle ensures you stay totally connected, even when the pressure is fully on. With many recreational tuna fishermen using inferior rods provided by the charter boats they are fishing on, the Vengeance Stand-Up Spiral is affordable enough that you can now own your own specialized trolling rod.
