Angling Sports Expands to Saltwater Fishing

We’re thrilled to announce that Angling Sports now offers a full lineup of saltwater fishing products to ensure you’re geared up for success on the open water! Saltwater fishing brings unique challenges, from battling bigger fish to resisting corrosion from salty environments. That’s why our new collection includes rods, reels, hard baits, and soft baits specifically engineered for saltwater conditions. Here’s what makes each type of gear essential for your saltwater fishing trips:

Saltwater Fishing Rods

Saltwater rods are designed to handle the demands of tougher, larger fish and the corrosive nature of saltwater. Unlike freshwater rods, they are crafted from durable materials like graphite and composite fibres to provide strength without added weight.

 For those planning fishing trips to saltwater destinations, we offer convenient travel rods such as the Daiwa Saltiga Saltwater Casting Travel Rod, that break down for easy transport without sacrificing durability or performance. Having a rod built specifically for saltwater ensures you have the durability and control needed to handle bigger, stronger catches.

Saltwater Reels

Saltwater reels are built to withstand the harsh, corrosive environment of the ocean. Our collection features reels with advanced corrosion resistance and a smooth, powerful drag system designed for long fights with large fish. Most saltwater reels use stainless steel and aluminum components to resist rust and wear, helping them last season after season. With a saltwater-specific reel, like the Shimano Stella SW Saltwater Spinning Reel, you’re better equipped to handle the challenges of ocean fishing and bring in larger, more aggressive fish.

Hard Baits for Saltwater Fishing

Hard baits for saltwater fishing come in colours and designs specifically aimed at mimicking the prey that saltwater game fish seek out. From diving plugs to topwater lures, our range of hard baits offers you options for various depths and fish species. The materials and finishes used are also built to resist damage from salt exposure, allowing these lures to stay effective even after multiple outings. By using hard baits crafted for saltwater, you can attract the attention of game fish like snappers, groupers, and mackerels with the most realistic presentation.

Soft Baits for Saltwater Fishing

Saltwater soft baits are designed to withstand the wear and tear of saltwater conditions and to look and move like the natural prey of saltwater fish. Made from tougher materials than traditional soft baits, they offer improved durability without compromising on lifelike action. Our soft bait collection includes shads, worms, and shrimp replicas, perfect for tempting inshore species. Using saltwater-specific soft baits helps ensure your lure survives long casting sessions, maintaining realistic movement in the water to lure in your target fish.

Why Choose Saltwater-Specific Gear?

Saltwater fishing presents its own set of unique challenges—saltwater is highly corrosive and can easily damage equipment that isn’t specifically treated or built for it. Using saltwater gear means longer-lasting, higher-performance products that save you money in the long run. Additionally, saltwater rods, reels, and lures are all designed with the power, durability, and corrosion resistance needed to handle the strength of ocean-going fish and harsh environments.
