Berkley Lightning Rod Trout Spinning Rod
The Berkley® Lightning Rod® Trout is a specific-purpose spinning rod, meant for trout fishing with light line and dough baits. 24 ton, multi modulus graphite blank construction offers sensitivity for lightning quick hook sets, yet also provides durability for years of service. Stainless steel guides with aluminum oxide inserts resist corrosion and allow smooth line flow for long casts. A double locking reel seat keeps your reel snugged up through the entire day; and a rubberized cork handle provides comfort and control. The Berkley Lightning Rod Trout provides a well-balanced spinning rod at a great price point.

Buyer bewareBought this rod, Model BSLR662UL right before Thanksgiving at a Bass Pro store in Illinois near where we were visiting. The third time I used it fishing for trout in the White river in AR near where we live, it broke while trying to land a small rainbow trout. It broke right before the joint where the two sections join. Tried to e-mail Berkley about this but no luck yet. Called Bass Pro customer service and thy said to return it to the nearest store and they would replace/refund my money. I'm thinking I'll get a different brand of rod as I've fished for years and never broke a rod. Never heard of a small trout breaking a pole like this. 6lb. test line, power bait, c'mon man - I have two Fenwick ultralight rods I've had for years, caught thousands of fish, never had a problem with either one. Don't waste your
money! ( make sure you keep your receipt as Bass Pro will take returns up to 90 days I was told by a VERY helpful customer service rep.)

Best Trout Rod For The Money!I shore fish for trout and I prefer a longer rod for the extra casting reach and a UL-L action for the extra fun of light tackle fishing. This rod mets both of those demands with a product of superior workmanship at a very nice price.

Excellent trout rodThis new Berkley trout rod is one great rod. Love the rubberized cork grip. Just the right diameter and feels great. I have the 8 ft version and love it. Moderate action is perfect bait fishing. The double locking reel seat is something you don’t see on trout rods. I think for all the great qualities this rod has it is a steal at this price point.
Why is there a film/plastic over a guide on my rod when I received it? How do I take it off?
Asked by: TJones06
Thank you for choosing Bass Pro Shops. The bit of plastic is on there to protect the guide while in the packaging and should be easily removed by peeling it off.

Would this rod also be a good choice for casting small spinners in rivers and lakes, or do you have better choices?
