The PENN Ally II Boat Rod has the power and durability you need for offshore saltwater fishing. PENN uses a combination of Seaguide Stainless Steel guides with zirconium inserts and PacBay machined aluminum roller guides in key high-stress areas to extend the life of your line by reducing friction. The incredibly tough tubular E-glass rod blank with a solid glass tip withstands the strain of big, hard fighting fish. A non-corrosive aluminum Seaguide HBS reel seat keeps reels firmly secured during battle. Aluminum gimbals and PacBay aluminum butt sections provide considerable advantage in keeping the rod butt solidly planted during prolonged battles. Non-slip EVA grips withstand long days under the sun and saltwater spray while still providing a secure hold. The PENN Ally II Boat Rod provides the correct balance and application for your next offshore adventure.
