A favorite among professional sailfish and kingfish tournament anglers, the Kingfish 20-50 is one of our top choices for live bait fishing and is also an excellent rod for trolling small ballyhoo for white marlin.
Available in both 6'6" and 7' lengths, each rod is equipped with an American Tackle aluminum reel seat, durable conventional ceramic guides, and comfortable EVA foam grips. The Blue Young Guns Series is built to provide dependable performance, quality components, and exceptional value, while the Kingfish 20-50 combines sensitivity, power, and durability to create an incredibly versatile everyday offshore rod.
The Kingfish 20-50 is an excellent choice for targeting kingfish, sailfish, mahi, cobia, tarpon, tuna, white marlin, snapper, and a wide variety of other offshore and bottom species.
