Great for smaller anglers

John

Great rods for small folks, at 5’8 you don’t have to worry about them swinging rods all over the place.
That being said these are a blast on seabass scup and fluke.
My son landed a 44 inch striped bass on one so there’s plenty of backbone

631M 6ft nurse shark.

I was using this rod for red snapper, paired with a slammer 6500, and it put in some serious work. It also winched a 6ft nurse shark from about 80ft off a wreck.

Great inshore rod

Best Rod Out There for the Money

Capt J.

I have three of these Sapphire XT Pro 6'3" rods (two spin/1 cast) and use them for snap-jigging on my deep water wreck fishing charters. When paired with a reliable 4000-series class spinning reel like the Penn Battle or Okuma Azores, or an Avet SXJ lever drag, spooled with 15-to-20 lb braid line, using 2-to-4 oz jigs near bottom structure in 100-to-200 feet of water produces non-stop read more action with a variety of groundfish. These rods are reliable, bullet-proof and have taken triple-headers of seabass from 185-feet down with zero problems. They are strong, sensitive and extremely affordable, with no vices. My only wish is that the conventional rods be equipped with a trigger grip reel seat, but that's not a deal breaker. The casting rod can be used with 12-oz of lead without going to mush. Get one!

This is a great rod for the money. We have two kids that we take fishing on a regular basis and have great luck with these rods. Not going to be as nice as a custom rod or some of the higher end products that are out there but good quality and very durable. Great price point

I have four of these rods now for light tackle jigging mostly for fluke and seabass they are worth every penny!!! Sensitive, strong, and at a price point that anyone can afford. Used them for 2 seasons now and they're holding strong we'll see about their longevity, but for a rod under $100 you can't beat it. Get one you won't be disappointed.

Purchased this as a spare rod to keep at my summer house and wind up using it all the time!
Only downside is that I am kicking myself for spending more than 4x on another rod...

Very Happy

I fish the Florida keys I paired it with a Penn 430ss and it is a great combination, it has enough backbone to help land everything from Snook, Tarpon, yellowtails, Rainbow runners, and snappers.
just a fun rod great action at a price that fits everyone's pocket book

Tsunami Sapphire XT Pro Rods Questions and Answers

Ask a Question

Asked by Kevin 4 years ago

What size reel should I pair with this 6’6 model

Sydney 4 years ago

A 2500 class reel would pair nicely with the Tsunami Sapphire XT Pro Rod 6'6". If you want to make it an extra-light setup, you could go with a 2000 or 1500. 

Asked by Will 4 years ago

Will a Shimano tranx 200 fit ok the 6ft 9 casting version

Sydney 4 years ago

The Shimano Tranx 200 will fit well with the Tsunami Saphire 6'9".

Asked by Will Kinsella 4 years ago

Will a Shimano tranx 200 fit on the 6ft9 medium casting?

Sydney 4 years ago

The Shimano Tranx 200 and the Tsunami Sapphire XT Pro 6'9" casting rod would fit well together. Though you must be careful with how heavy your braid is. The reel can handle much heavier braid than the rod can. 

Asked by Brian 6 years ago

Would you recommend this rod for a Calcutta 400 for inshore/offshore bottom fishing?

Donald 6 years ago

The Tsunami SABCXTP631M Sapphire XT Pro Casting Rod would be the best model for inshore bottom fishing and light offshore bottom fishing.
