ARC STEELHEAD & SALMON
ARC 958/4
This is one of our most popular all around steelhead and salmon rods, and has become our most popular pike rod. ARC 958/4 offers line mending, roll casting, and fly steering advantages over shorter rods, but balances well enough to cast and fish all day. ARC 958/4 is our best sinking line rod. The forgiving tip helps form good casting loops with awkward heads, and the ARC reinforced butt section has plenty of power for making extremely long casts. The extra length is also an advantage for pike anglers, who benefit from the extra length when wade fishing grassy lake shorelines.
