This 10'6" Prolite NW style downrigger rod is a true showcase of craftsmanship and vibrant design, custom built by our newest rod builder, Porter, marking his very first custom creation. Built on a medium power blank, it offers the perfect balance of backbone and sensitivity for Northwest downrigger fishing, ideal for handling everything from aggressive coho to heavyweight kings. It features striking neon yellow wraps along the blank that demand attention, perfectly contrasted by a rich purple dragon scale under wrap near the handle that shimmers with depth and detail. Accented by nylon neon green highlights throughout, this rod’s vivid color scheme is carried all the way to the tip, ensuring it stands out both on the water and on the rack. Completed with a classic cork handle paired with a carbon fiber and anodized purple aluminum butt cap and reel seat, this rod is as comfortable and functional as it is eye-catching. More than just a fishing rod, this build is a milestone piece — Porter’s debut into the world of custom rod building, blending fresh passion with Prolite’s commitment to quality.
