Redington Predator Salt Fly Rod

Redington's all-new Predator Salt is the go-to rod series when you're targeting big, hard-fighting fish with heavy lines and beasts of flies--designed for anything from permit, bull reds, and tarpon to musky and pike. Whether fishing in salt or aggressive freshwater, this rod family boasts a powerful, fast action that loads deep, giving you casting power even in wind and adverse conditions. Built on advanced Nano Resin Graphite blanks, these rods deliver both lightweight performance and rugged durability. Saltwater-ready through and through, every component—from the guides to the reel seat—is corrosion-resistant and designed to hold up to everything. Across the range, you’ve got everything from spooky-bonefish 5 weights s to 14 weights built for bluewater giants.

Blank

Nano Resin Graphite Technology - The Predator Salt blanks use Nano Resin Graphite for a blend of strength, lightness, and resilience. This blank is fast and responsive enough to launch heavy lines and flies with authority, but still maintains a feel that's nimble enough to hold up to sight fishing opportunities across tough species in clear water.

Guides

Aluminum Oxide Stripping Guides w/ Ceramic Inserts - Deigned to be lightweight and corrosion-resistant while providing long-lasing line shootability, Redington outfits this series with Aluminum Oxide Stripping Guides that have an integrated Ceramic insert.

Hard Wire Anodized Snake Guides - A reliable complement to the rod's stripping guides, Redington utilizes Hard Wire Anodized Snake Guides on the Predator Salt Rods. These guides are lightweight and anti-corrosive, so you can take them to even the saltiest environments without fear of missing your target.

Reel Seat

Anodized Aluminum - Each Predator Salt Rod features a corrosion-resistant, machined aluminum reel seat that's perfectly suited for long shifts in saltwater. The laser-etched model reference makes quick identification easy, and a hidden, built-in hook keeper keeps things organized while you're shuffling onto the next flat.

Rod Tube

Cordura Rod Tube - Whether you're taking it on your buddy's boat or traveling across the globe, your Predator Salt Rod is sure to rest safely in a Cordura Rod Tube w/ built-in dividers. T
