Glenn Hall caught this 60lb king salmon a week ago in Kodiak, AK on Fetha Styx new downrigger rod, the FS-DRP 934-2 which is 9ft 3in and rated 8-18lbs. It took him about 20 to 30 minutes to get the beast to the boat, but he said the rod handled the fight perfectly. These new downrigger rods in the CCA series will be available June 10th here next month!
Glenn and the crew were also fishing the True Hero series 8′ 6″ downrigger — enjoy their photo gallery from Alaska!
