Smith Spinning rod Smith Offshore Stick GTK Amuro 250

This Smith rod is quite simply one of the most powerful that the brand has built. With a stated aim of taking on fish weighing up to 250lbs, you'll enter the realm of trophy fish that leave a lasting impression.

The Amuro is 2.30m long with a 77cm handle and a casting power of 70 to 200g. Even if it can handle a PE 10 without a care, it's still a comfortable rod to use in this range. You can count on a large maximum drag capacity, given as 15kg at 45° and 8kg at 90°. You'll also be able to count on a gimbal, which is essential when you're up against fish weighing tens of kilos.

You'll also benefit from the Offshore Stick GTK series blank, which features 30 and 40t carbon reinforced with Kevlar and titanium. This gives the rod a weight of just 432g.
