DESCRIPTION 

We aren't tooting our own horn here, but we seriously knocked it out of the park with the Dogfish Blue Water Series! By far, this is one of the most versatile rods for the offshore and inshore markets in our store! We spent two years developing these five models. 

DFSBWC661XXH  This rod was built with the hardcore bottom fisherman in mind. It was built strong enough to handle giant bottom fish but only weighs 13.7 ounces which is a whopping 7 ounces lighter than our number 1 selling bottom fishing rod in the store, the 15H.  We left no stone unturned when building this rod with the highest quality and functioning components. It has Alps SS316 marine grade stainless steel guides with zirconium ring, Fuji double locking reel seat, and rubber locking gimble. We fixed some of the common problems that you see in other rods of similar caliber from other manufactures such as guide placement so that under full load the line doesn't cut into the foregrip, nor does the line drop under the blank under full load like you will see with other rods on the market. We also lengthened the foregrip length to 11 inches so that if the rod is laid over your thigh while applying maximum pressure on a fish, the blank will not touch you, only EVA from the foregrip. The great thing about this rod is that it isn't just your run of the mill bottom fishing rod, we can throw a roller top on it, and it becomes a great rod for trolling lipped plugs, billy baits, cedar plugs, or skipping ballyhoo behind your favorite color Islander lures. We designed it that way with the Bay Boat owners in mind who don't necessarily need a stand up 30 or 50 but still want to get their trolling game on and still own the best bottom fishing rod you can buy! This pairs great with an Accurate Valiant 600HH , Shimano Talica 20 or 25 , Shimano Talica 12II or 16II  , Accurate Fury 600HH  , Shimano Torium 40 , Shimano Speedmaster 20II and 25II , and Daiwa Saltiga LD40 2 Speed and LD50 2 Speed ,  

DFSBWC701M   In the store, people tell us all the time, "I need a conventional rod that does it all." Well, this rod, as well as its slightly heavier big brother, might be the closest that you're going to find. From the inshore fisherman who needs a rod that can be used for Mangrove Snapper, Kingfish, light Grouper fishing, and vertical Jigging passes for big Snook and Tarpon to the offshore fisherman who needs a live bait Kingfish/Blackfin Tuna rod, Red Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, Light Red Grouper fishing, light jigging, and trolling smaller skirted baits. This rod can handle just about anything not just because of our bad to the bone top secret blank but because of the high-quality components that went into this build. This rod features Alps SS316 marine grade stainless steel guides with zirconium ring, Fuji double locking reel seat, and rubber locking gimble. A great way to describe this rod is light tip, super parabolic bend, with a whole load of back bone. We recommend pairing this rod with an Accurate Valiant 500 2 speed, Accurate Fury 500 2 Speed , Shimano Torium 16HG, 20PG, 16PG, or 20PG ,   Shimano Speedmaster 12II or 16II, Shimano Talica 12II and 16II, and Daiwa Saltiga 35LD 2Speed and 40LD 2Speed 

DFSBWC701MH  While this rod is very similar to the DFSBWC701M, it picks up what its counterpart was lacking with a lot more back bone. This rod is an employee favorite for so many reasons. It pairs well with all of the newer modern 2 Speed lever drags reels and can handle the modern day drag pressure that the lever drags are putting out! We built this rod for the weekend warrior to the hardcore charter boat captain who is fishing day in and day out. This rod excels because the tip is still light enough to feel Mangrove Snapper and Lane Snapper but maintain back bone to handle Amberjack and Grouper! This rod provides you with a parabolic fast action that will stand up to the toughest battles and harshest conditions! This rod features Alps SS316 marine grade stainless steel guides with zirconium ring, Fuji double locking reel seat, and rubber locking gimble. We are huge fans of pairing these rods with these reels Accurate Valiant 500 2 speed, Accurate Fury 500 2 Speed , Shimano Torium 16HG, 20PG, 16PG, or 20PG ,   Shimano Speedmaster 12II or 16II, Shimano Talica 12II and 16II, and Daiwa Saltiga 35LD 2Speed and 40LD 2Speed 

DFSBWC761M   One key word that you will read here is VERSATILITY. At Dogfish, we truly believe in stretching your hard-earned dollar as far as we can when selling you a new rod. The key to doing this is simple.  We need to provide you with the most Versatile rod possible so that you get the most bang for your buck. This rod is giving you six more inches of back bone than the 7" version and providing a little more rod to fight the fish with. In return, this gives you more options that the rod can provide. For instance, if you were looking for a conventional tarpon rod that you could live bait or dead bait with and transition into slow trolling live baits for Kingfish and Blackfin Tuna, then you have found the rod you need. If you are looking for a rod that can be used in the keys or the east coast for Mutton Snapper Fishing, Larger Mangrove Snapper and still provide enough meat to handle some solid bottom fish, you have found the rod you're looking for. We spent 2 years developing the Bluewater Series to make these rods number one on your "TO BUY" list. You can bet your bottom dollar that we have put our best foot forward in providing the dependability you know and love in a Dogfish Stik. This rod features Alps SS316 marine grade stainless steel guides with zirconium ring, Fuji double locking reel seat, and rubber locking gimble. We are huge fans of pairing these rods with these reels Accurate Valiant 500 2 speed, Accurate Fury 500 2 Speed , Shimano Torium 16HG, 20PG, 16PG, or 20PG ,   Shimano Speedmaster 12II or 16II, Shimano Talica 12II and 16II, and Daiwa Saltiga 35LD 2Speed and 40LD 2Speed 

DFSBWC761MH  Get ready to fall in love! Seriously get ready, this rod has quickly made its way to the top of the Employee favorite list because of the endless possibilities that this rod has to offer. Tarpon, big Snook, Grouper, Snapper, Amberjack, Tuna, it never ends. We would HIGHLY recommend pairing this rod with a newer 2 Speed Lever drag reel so that you can fully achieve all that this rod has to offer. Having the 2 Speed will let you bottom fish with this rod without fear of being broken off from lack of power from the reel. It will let you utilize the high speed when catching Tarpon and Snook and getting tight to Snapper when they are higher in the water column. Live baiting or chunking for Tuna?  You will use the high speed for staying tight on their initial runs and turns and then switch to low gear when they are straight up and down doing the death circle. This rod will let you accomplish all of these feats if paired with the correct reels.  This rod features Alps SS316 marine grade stainless steel guides with zirconium ring, Fuji double locking reel seat, and rubber locking gimble. Pair this rod with Accurate Valiant 500 2 speed, Accurate Fury 500 2 Speed , Shimano Torium 16HG, 20PG, 16PG, or 20PG ,   Shimano Speedmaster 12II or 16II, Shimano Talica 12II and 16II, Accurate Valiant 600HH, Accurate Fury 600HH and Daiwa Saltiga 35LD 2Speed and 40LD 2Speed
