HTO Rockfish 228 makes an ideal rod for working small crank baits, jig heads or mini metal lures. The use of a tubular tip on the HTO Rockfish 228 gives more feel than solid tipped rods and are good for bouncing jig heads along the bottom. The slightly firmer tip also helps with imparting action into small hard baits, including surface lures.
The original Rockfish range was one of HTO’s most successful rod launches, the first range of rods designed in the UK for LRF fishing at a sensible price for all. The 2019 range took that to a new level and now, their 2024 range takes it even further, introducing a wider range of affordable LRF rods.
HTO Rockfish 228 has a new, modern look, with fewer whippings, keeping the rod lightweight, with the blank fitted with single-leg SiC guides and VSS style reel seat. The 2 piece blank is made from IM7 carbon, which gives the rod a crisp, responsive feel.
A modern twist on a classic rod range.
