DDR #2 60-130# 63" Deep Drop/ HST Wahoo Rod

The DDR #2 was purpose-built for serious deep drop anglers targeting snapper, grouper, tilefish, golden tilefish, and other deep-water species in extreme depths as well as High Speed Trolling for Wahoo . Designed around our Gulfstream Diamond Tek Solid Fiberglass blank, the DDR #2 provides the perfect balance of sensitivity and lifting power required to fish heavy sinkers and battle powerful fish from hundreds or even thousands of feet below the surface.

At 63 inches in length and rated for 60-130 lb line, the DDR #2 excels in modern deep drop applications using electric reels and heavy tackle. The responsive tip helps detect subtle bites in deep water while the powerful backbone provides the strength needed to handle large fish and heavy lead systems with confidence.
