Fox JIG TREK XT jigging rod (Speed jigging). This is the Big Brother of the Jig Trek. Ideally suited for those larger lures up to 700 grams in weight and fishing at extreme depths with braided line up to 80 lbs breaking strain.
The action of this model, although similar to the lighter version, does have more backbone which is needed to subdue monsters of the deep! Again, reels up to 20,000 in size are perfectly suited and will sit comfortably in the top quality Fuji reel seat.
To come up with a multi-piece travel rod with the exacting action was very difficult and time consuming, but we are extremely proud of our final design which has been used successfully in many oceans around the world. Fish of over 100 lbs were caught while field testing by our consultants. Their feedback has been invaluable to ensure that not only have all the fittings been correctly positioned but have been specifically chosen for this finite task.
We have selected to use top quality Fuji guides throughout, of which there are seven full cradle supported rings. We have also incorporated a Fuji reel fitting with a lock down action and a Gimbal end butt essential for all stand-up work. The fore grip above the reel fitting has been sculptured with a comfortable finger grip to allow maximum pressure to be exerted.
The Jig Trek XT is made from four sections with a transportation length of 21.5 inches and is presented in a top quality, smart, zipped hard case travel tube for ultimate protection and ease of transportation.
