Salt HD 1686-4

Reviews

1. Rated 4 out of 5

   Like the Salt HD 1386, the 1686 casts like a fly rod. This thing is a stick though and if I had to rob a bank with a fly rod, I’d probably pick this thing up. Like all the Salt HD rods, the 1686 is meticulously and purposefully built for spending a life at sea. This is another rod that I probably won’t ever have a chance to fish, but I sure would like to, or at the least have a beer with the guy that gets to fish this thing. Sharks, marlin, tuna and other fish that are generally exceptions to a fly rod’s ability should be the target of this immensely powerful fly rod.
