## Questions & Answers

**Q: can this rod handle  big stipers and bluefish, 50lb Brad line ?**
A: The downrigger rod is rated for 10- 25 lb mono line. You can use 50lb braid but you need to make sure the drag is set to the rod ratings.

**Q: looking for a medium rod for boat flounder fishing, not a downrigger setup. Will this work for short cast/drifing- kings/croaker/flounder?**
A: The GLT rods are trolling rods which will have a slower action. They should work for short cast/drifing- kings/croaker/flounder?

**Q: what is the line weight on this rod?**
A: I use 20lb when salmon fishing.

**Q: Will the guide inserts withstand stainless wire?**
A: I’m not sure which one this is but for stainless wire you want the copper rod or a roller rod personally I would use a roller rod for wire .

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great rod at a great price
*by D***R on December 31, 2019*

I bought two of these rods for salmon fishing on the Columbia River, I purchased two Okuma Line counter reels to put on them and they have proved to be a very good purchase. I have caught several salmon on them the biggest was 27 pounds and the rods and reels have worked great. Very comfortable and had great action from the poles. Highly recommend for those that want a great rod and reel at a reasonable price.
