The Silver Slayer Tarpon Rods are built with powerful and responsive 24 - ton carbon rod blanks that feature Okuma’s UFRII rod tip technology. This process blends unidirectional fiber over 24 - ton carbon in the extended tip section of the rod to increase lifting strength and power by as much as 400%. This technology provides for the ultimate in strength without sacrificing sensitivity so that you can feel even the lightest of bites down deep.
The Silver Slayer Tarpon Rods consist of four total rods that are all spinning models. The four models consist of a 7 - foot Heavy, 7 - foot X - Heavy, 7 - foot, 9 - inch Heavy, and a 7 - foot, 9 - inch X - Heavy. These rods have the backbone to really work your fish to the boat and feature a tapered cork fore and full rear grip design with a rubber cork inlay. With the brute strength that Tarpon possesses, the Silver Slayer rods have components to match.
Each rod is designed with Fuji K - Concept deep press frames that help reduce tangles and line twists after all-day casting. Each of these guides holds firmly in place a Fuji FazLite guide insert for silky-smooth performance. The rods also have a SeaGuide double-locking Alien reel seat that keeps your spinning reels firmly and comfortably in place. And while fighting your fish, the Silver Slayer rods all come standard with a premium Fuji gimbal for support.
Proposition 65 is a California law that applies to companies selling products in California. Proposition 65 requires warnings if a product contains any listed chemical present above very low levels. Proposition 65’s warning standards are among the most stringent in the world. Proposition 65 is not a product safety law, but rather a "right-to-know" law. Businesses are required to provide warnings to comply with Proposition 65.
There are over 800 chemicals on the Proposition 65 list, which is administered by California's Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA), a part of the California Environmental Protection Agency. The list includes naturally occurring and man-made chemicals. Proposition 65 warnings can be seen for a wide variety of everyday consumer products, including electronic equipment, and warnings can be seen posted throughout California in a variety of establishments such as buildings, hotels, restaurants, coffee shops, and stores.
Why do you see the warning on our packaging and website?
The warning is part of our ongoing effort to comply with the California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (known as "Proposition 65").
