Delivery & Shipping

Do you offer free shipping?

We offer free domestic shipping on most orders over $150 subtotal. This excludes oversized and bulky items such as rods, blanks, gaffs, some tackle boxes, lobster nets, landing nets and other large items. Any 1 piece rod over 7'10" in length often incurs the biggest oversize fees charged by domestic shipping companies although we do have lower rates via other carriers on the West Coast. Any additional shipping fees will be automatically calculated at checkout before any billing is done.

What countries do you ship to?

We currently ship products within the US and to almost every country in the world, covering all available destination via UPS and DHL. International shipping times depend on the products and destination. Shipping rates are automatically calculated at checkout, for most countries we also collect Duties and Taxes and prepay them so you do not have to deal with the carrier or customs.

How long will it take to get my order?

Standard shipping can take 3-8 business days depending on location and order volume. If you have requested spooling on your reel or rigging on your lures then it could take an additional day or two. Next day & 2 day shipping is available on most domestic orders (for an additional charge). Orders placed after 12pm Pacific Standard Time will be processed the next business day.

What carriers do you ship with?

We work with UPS, FedEx, US Postal Service, GLS and DHL. When your order qualifies for free shipping or has a rod that qualifies for discounted shipping we reserve the right to choose which carrier it is sent with, otherwise you can pick the service you want. UPS Ground ranges from 1 to 7 day delivery, USPS Priority Mail is typically 1-3 days but is not a guaranteed express service, and USPS Ground Advantage takes roughly 3-7 business days. Longer rods are generally sent via GLS unless otherwise specified, this service ranges from 1 - 10 days.

Prop 65 Warning ⚠

The new Saltist series is a great entry level rod series for guys fishing in SoCal, offering the right lengths and line classes to go for the vast majority of species and fishing styles. These will be hard to beat when paired with a good budget reel like the Daiwa Saltist, Penn Fathom or Okuma Cavalla for the conventional models. I’d recommend the Daiwa BG MQ and Okuma Cedros series for the spinning given all of the extra features.

The lighter 15-30lb serves as a good light live bait rod and can work well for bottom fishing rigs going for rockfish, sculpin or bass. The heavier 20-50lb is perfect for a heavier setup fishing 40lb live bait, yoyo or surface irons as well as bigger lings, white seabass and deeper rockfishing. When the tuna are biting the live bait it would even work well for the mix grade fish up to 100lbs.

Saltist Boat Rods have the strength and lifting power to control powerful fish. All-around boat actions are enhanced by the proper matchup of quality components.

These rods come in two lengths 7″ to 7’6″ both in conventional and spinning rods.

The Conventional rods come equipped with a Diamond Fore Grip and EVA Foam Rear Grip with Aluminum Oxide Guides.

The spinning rods come with a EVA Foam Fore Grip & Rear Grip with Aluminum Oxide Guides.

This is a gr8 rod, but the guides are cheap!I

This is a gr8 rod, but the guides are cheap!
I replaced them all with Fuji K guides tall.
Starting with a 40-30-25-20-16-12-12 and now this thing is an absolute beast. I have the 55-100 and it will load up on 80g and launch it 100yrds no problem.
50lb daiwa j braid with a 3' 60lb mono leader on my daiwa bg mq 10k.
Im ready for any tuna up to 100lbs.

That type of real seat that comes on that rod

That type of real seat that comes on that rod is not made to use a real clamp with it, genius

The reel seats of saltist rods are too generic and are too thick for reel seat clamp bolts to reach.

would a lx or jx avet be good fit with slts761 h

The JX would probably pair up better, the H models are 20-50lb rated so you can even get away with an MXJ/MXL depending on what other features you're looking for.

How would the 7’6 H handle 3-4 lb weights? Looking for a relatively cheap backup tilefish head boat rod, preferably around $150. Would use it with a 4000 ocea jigger and 65lb braid.

I think it would be a bit light for what you're doing, 1-2lbs shouldn't be a problem but the rod will struggle with anything more. An XH class Daiwa Proteus would be a better option for what you're doing but it is a bit more expensive.
