The Evos Salt is widely considered a top-tier performer, competing directly with flagship saltwater rods from other high-end brands. If you are a serious saltwater angler wanting an incredibly durable, American-made rod that delivers on both power and finesse, this is a standout choice. I have a couple of theses rods. They are fantastic. Selling because I don’t use this rod as much as a few of my others. Comes with st croix’s transferable warranty. I do not have the original rod tube. Comes with what you see. Any questions please ask.
