Find robust boat rods designed to perform when you’re fishing from the deck of a boat in the open ocean. Boat rods are built tough and often a bit shorter, giving you the leverage to battle big fish straight up and down or to troll heavy lures without bending under pressure. Our boat rod selection has the strength and backbone to handle hefty saltwater species – whether you're live-lining bunker for huge stripers, jigging deep wrecks, or trolling offshore for tuna and mahi. Stout fiberglass and composite blanks, heavy-duty reel seats, and strong guides define these rods, so you can focus on fighting fish instead of worrying about your gear.

Not sure where to start? If you’re a beginner, consider a versatile boat rod that can double for bottom fishing and light trolling – it’s a great all-around tool for new boat anglers. For the seasoned crew chasing trophy fish, we offer specialized models with extra lifting power and even roller guides for shark or tuna hunting. Brands like Ugly Stik and Penn produce time-tested boat rods famous for reliability, and we stock those alongside high-performance options from Shimano and more. No matter your target catch, our boat rods will give you confidence when that fish of a lifetime is on the line.
