KASTKING PRESENTS KONG SERIES RODS

KastKing KONG series rods are designed for anglers targeting big fish in both fresh and saltwater! These lightweight, strong, 100% graphite blanks are constructed from highly durable S-Curve graphite reinforced with Nano-Resin technology, which provides incredible strength and lifting power, but is still incredibly light and sensitive.

Because KastKing KONG rods are designed for big fish, every component has to be up to the task. We only use stainless steel, double-foot guides for their strength, and each guide has an ultra-smooth titanium oxide ring that is designed to work flawlessly with heavy braid. The combination of strong frames and durable rings is ideal for extreme conditions.

When it comes to big fish, every element has to be up to the task. We use extra strong graphite reel seats with nylon reinforcement to keep big reels safe. Custom handles feature an EVA core for comfort and rubber cross wrap for durability. Front handles feature spiral cross wrap with finger holes for control on big fish. Some models also feature graphite gimbals in the rear for fighting.

The bright lime green “Strike Tip” improves early bite detection even in low light conditions and quickly warns of even the lightest bites so you never miss a fish. “Strike Tips” are also great for night fishing, but they work just as well in bright sunlight.
