Excellent trolling rod

The rod has great action for trolling bunker spoons for stripers.

Ok rods but trolling is tough nowadays

These rods look like old Harnells but they have different actions. I had a bad time landing bluefish with the single hooks and switched to Kaiju trebles. Now they hook everything that looks at them including a variety of sharks up to 100 lbs The rods held up under the stress of 100 lb fish and could easily handle the largest stripers Unfortunately all I see lately is whales dolphins read more and sharks but no bluefish or stripers .

BEAUTIFUL HIGH QUALITY RODS

I haven’t fished it yet bit you can see the quality & attention to detail that went into this rod. I am sure I will be buying another one before next springs striper run.

What can I say before I fish them!

All high quality components and that makes them a great buy. (I bought 2 Tony Maja Bunker Spoon Wire Line Trolling rods). My Dad and I used to troll wire out by Middle Ground lighthouse In the LI Sound. It sure beat up the rods. So I checked these over real good. It has all the components listed, but, they are manufactured well. By obviously experienced rod. builders. The read more spline seems where it belongs. The gimbal and reel seat are Aluminum and well seated. (Not shifting or spinning). The guides are tough and especially well bound, taped and epoxied to the rod. The epoxy finish is glossy and even. The guides are the most important to me as all of our rods from other brands used to break where the guide met the guide mount and rattled around on the wire after they had broken. Ugh!. That being said, I can't wait to try them out. It seems that Tony really did do the work and put together the right product at a good price. Id rather buy it once and get it right rather than need 2 or 3 of the same over time.

Absolutely the best for fishing spoons!

I have 2 of these paired with Senator and wireline for striped bass. The action on these rods is fantastic and they have just enough backbone to pull in those cow stripers that hit the big spoons. A must if you are fishing bunker spoons!

Best Striper Trolling Rods

The action on these with a bunker spoon is unmatched, best striper trolling rod on the market. Well worth the money

Quality Built Rod

You will not be disappointed with this rod. The rod is made with quality parts and for a good price. The rods work amazing with bunker spoons and it really does make a difference. I have no complaints other than I didn't buy it sooner and I wish I never bought cheaper imitation on ebay. Highly recommend and I now have two. I matched it with a Penn 113HSP.

Quality Rods that made me a striper pro!

This is my second set of Maja Rods, part of the system that trolls bunker spoons for big bass. Tony Maja spent a lifetime perfecting this approach so those of us who use it can catch stripers like a pro. And the rods do all the work so trolling wire is no longer drudgery. Get the rods and all the Maja gear, find a how to article or video and become a striper pro!

Bought 2 of these rods for the spoons I've been collecting. I paired them with okuma cw-453d reels loaded with braid backer and 300' of monel. The rods have a nice pump to then.

Recommendation for a reel please...Avet or Shimano preferred 

Billy - TackleDirect Customer Service 3 years ago

Both companies produce top of the line reels. It ultimately comes down to personal preference. Some prefer one to the other.

Austin Kearney 3 years ago

Unfortunately, Tony Maja doesn't list specs on this rod, but this is not a bottom fishing rod. I would check out the Daiwa Proteus-WN Saltwater Rods for the application you're looking for.<p><br /></p><p>https://www.tackledirect.com/daiwa-proteus-wn-saltw
