Tropical rods

When fishing in tropical waters, rods that can withstand extreme strain and aggressive strikes are required. Our selection of tropical rods is designed to give you full control, whether you're casting heavy poppers for Giant Trevally (GT) or working with stickbaits for tuna and other exciting species. A popper rod is shorter and more powerful to handle large lures and explosive surface strikes, while a stickbait rod is slightly longer and has a softer tip to give the lure the right action.

For those who focus on vertical fishing, jigging rods are the obvious choice. They are compact, lightweight, and built to endure pumping strong fish from the depths, perfect for slow jigging and speed jigging for dogtooth tuna and other powerhouses.

At Outside Travels, you'll find our selected range of tropical rods. Adapted for tough adventures in the Indian Ocean, the Maldives, or West Africa.
