The Shakespeare SALT XT Beachcaster 14ft is a powerful, lightweight and responsive sea fishing rod designed for anglers looking for excellent casting performance, sensitivity and versatility at a competitive price.
Built using a high-grade, slim carbon blank, the SALT XT features a medium-fast taper that combines impressive casting power with a more progressive action. This allows the rod to load smoothly during casting while maintaining the strength needed to handle demanding shore fishing conditions.
Its responsive blank and sensitive tip provide excellent bite detection, while the 14ft length helps anglers achieve greater casting distances and maintain control of their line in the surf.
Designed with versatility in mind, the rod features a high-quality sliding reel seat, allowing it to be used with either a fixed spool reel or multiplier. Saltwater-resistant zirconium oxide guides provide smooth line flow, while the X-shrink casting grip ensures a secure hold when casting.
