Penn Squadron IV Boat Conventional Casting Rod
The PENN Squadron IV 6' casting rod is built for heavy-duty saltwater applications but lacks the finesse needed for Great Lakes steelhead fishing. With its 50-130lb line rating and heavy power, this rod would be overkill for most tributary steelhead situations where lighter presentations are typically required.
