Developed in partnership with renowned South Florida captain Mutton Mike D, the Mutton Manager jigging/bottom rod is available in conventional and spinning configurations. The Mutton Manager Spin is rated for 30-60# line. The Mutton Manager Conventional is rated for 40-70#. Both are 7'0".

Designed for use with braided line and compact reels like the Okuma Alijos 12SII, the conventional Mutton Manager features a shortened grip per Capt. Mike’s orders and combines a soft, shock-absorbing tip section with lots of backbone to turn powerful snapper, grouper, or kingfish. The Mutton Manager Spin matches well with 8000-size reels such as the Okuma Tesoro.
