NEW PRICIING

As we continue expanding our line up of Super Seeker stand up rods we are now offering rods built with the Winthrop Tool  guides .. This rod has the 80-130 Excel guides with the Titanium roller tip.    

This rod is 5 foot 11 inches in length with the Aftco Store-a-butt attached. It is powered with a 80-130lb Super Seeker rod blank. 

This Super Seeker blank, like all the Super Seeker blanks has great lift, outstanding early back bone, and wonderful action.   

We used the Aftco short bent Store-a-Butt, on this rod. With this removable aluminum butt, we can add a second butt for this rod at no extra charge.

The second butt will be the winning bidders choice of a shark skin butt .. a smother EVA foam butt .. a ribbed EVA foam butt or a slick butt. The idea for the choice of butts is to be able to use this rod with the short bent aluminum stand up butt when trolling or bait fishing out of a 6 pack or your personal boat, then be able to switch the butt to use on a long range tuna trip.  This is and exceptional value. And as far as i know and exclusive offer.

This rod starts with the Aftco store-a-butt .. then a Super Seeker 80-130 lb rod blank.  The guides are the Winthrop Excel roller guides in black with and titanium roller tip. 

The rod is wrapped in a Pewter metallic thread with black and silver trim.  The Pewter thread color is a very good match to the titanium top. it makes for and exceptional looking rod.

The fore grip is our triangular shaped 13 in fore grip. I designed and had this grip manufactured exclusively for BaR-BaR Tackle. You'll find the design is easy to hold for long periods of time and it is a great help in eliminating the twisting and turning you  get when a conventional rod is under stress. I simply don't know any one that has tried the triangle shape grip and didn't like them

There isn't much i can tell you about the Winthrop Tool roller guides, except they are the very best roller guides manufactured anywhere. The Excel Series of roller guides that are on this rod sport a new frame .. designed and developed from input by experienced rod builder and fisherman. Every roller guide is precision machined our of solid aluminum bar. There are no welds, seams or bends. And never a sharp edge. Ever roller guide incorporates titanium rollers riding on two stainless steel, Teflon sealed ball bearings. The bearings are marine greased and sealed to protect them from the elements. These guides have huge wind on opening ..large enough to accommodate a # 2 pencil. The largest on the market. The roller tip has a solid frame, machined out of a single block of titanium. 

Each guide is under wrapped in the metallic Pewter thread then the guides are attached with 4 layers of C size thread for maximum strength, then trimmed in silver.  

At BaR-BaR Tackle we have a pretty simple goal. We build every rod to be strong, durable, affordable and hard nosed. Rods to last you a life time.

Then i try to make them pretty. Stand up rods seldom have fancy wraps, but i like the look of a rod with a wrap between the first and second guides.

 Don't let the beauty of this rod fool you, it is a very functional and  powerful rod.

We will be glad to customize this rod for you. It may be ordered with the Calstar rod blanks or with different butts. It may also be ordered wrapped in your favorite colors. Contact us for pricing information. 

These rods are built right here in the USA by BaR-BaR Tackle. If you are the winning bidder on this rod we will place you name or boats name on the rod at no additional charge.    

Note:  I have only one of these rods in stock at this time, once this rod is sold please allow 7-14 to build and ship.

 

 BaR-BaR Tackle  is and authorized Alutecnos Dealer  .. add a new Alutecnos Albacore or Gorilla reel to this rod and save some $$$ off the suggested retail price of the two items .. Please write for combo pricing.. or pricing on any of the great Alutecnos products.

 If you put a new Alutecnos Gorilla 20 on this set up, you'd have a great, light, powerful combo for about anything that swims. 

 

       The design and manufacturing process of Albacore reels stem from a collaborative effort involving all of the staff at Alutecnos. A commitment aimed not only at improving the technological  content, but  also at paying result is a  product  that stands out for aesthetic and technical aspects  with  outstanding attention to details. Such details include the  infinite "anti reverse"  system  applied  to trolling  reel for the first time. The frontal cam and lock release button for placing  the  automatically  rearming gear  lever  into  "free" or "full" mode.  Five  bearings  and gears made from tempered stainless steel guarantee further resistance from corrosion. The system  for  anchoring  the  reel to  the rod is robust and reliable using four anchor screws.  The  drag washer is made from  the latest  carbon  composite  and  is  appropriately  protected to ensure  smooth and consistent  use  during  the  most  intense battles,  the  occurrence of "stick-slip" is  virtually eliminated.  All of  the  aluminium parts  have  been  buffed ultrasonically cleaned,  polished  and  anodized  with a gold or silver finish. All  of the  parts have  been  machined  from  bars  using  CNC working  processes and are subjected to rigorous dimensional and quality control checks. Particular attention  is  paid  to processing cycles  and  the careful selection of the highest quality  of  raw  materials  and components available. The results in a  technically  perfect product.
