The FishUSA Flagship Salmon & Steelhead Spinning Rods series is our exclusive model, designed, tested, and approved by our dedicated anglers at FishUSA and Pro staff members. The custom-made family of salmon and steelhead spinning rods ranges from 9 to 11 feet in length. Strategically placed 36- and 24-ton graphite in the rod blanks and tips offers ultralight to medium power. We think you'll approve of the light yet strong salmon/steelhead spinning rod for fighting fish. We also made sure our two-piece salmon and steelhead spinning rods deliver the premier features for performance, durability, and lasting comfort.


The FishUSA Flagship Salmon & Steelhead Spinning Rod features Sea-Guide Hero Hi-Grade stainless steel guides with marine-grade frames that resist chipping and provide reliable performance in demanding salmon and steelhead conditions. Oversized guide openings help limit ice buildup in cold weather while giving leader knots plenty of clearance for smooth passage during casts and retrieves. A Fuji reel seat provides a secure connection between the reel and blank, while the comfortable ground cork handle offers a familiar feel for long days targeting salmon and steelhead. A durable hook keeper keeps terminal tackle secured between spots, and the elegant dark blue metallic finish gives the rod a distinctive Flagship look. Backed by a one-year limited warranty, the FishUSA Flagship Salmon & Steelhead Spinning Rod gives anglers a dependable setup for pursuing prized fish throughout the Great Lakes, Pacific Northwest, and beyond!


  • Tailored for salmon and steelhead fishing Great Lakes tributaries or anywhere in the Pacific Northwest
  • Unique graphite blend for increased durability
  • Oversized Sea-Guide Hero Hi-Grade Guides to limit freezing and allow leader knots to pass through

Additional Rod Details

902M

The 9' Medium action FishUSA Flagship Salmon & Steelhead Spinning Rod is your ideal hardware chucking rod. This rod has plenty of backbone to throw some of your heavier salmon and steelhead lures (1/4oz - 3/4oz) but a soft enough tip to protect your leader from splitting runs, big headshakes and rolls, and gnarly salmon teeth. This soft tip also helps keep treble hooks pinned.

962L

The 9'6" Light Flagship Salmon & Steelhead Spinning Rod is your go-to when fishing small tributaries with light line and small presentations. This salmon steelhead spinning rod can double as a float fishing rod or a very light hardware rod. Great Lakes tributary anglers love this length and action of steelhead rod when having to drop down to 4lb leaders and single egg or other finesse presentations. If you fish tributaries that tend to run low and clear often, the 962L is the rod for you!

962ML

The 9'6" Medium Light Flagship Salmon & Steelhead Spinning rod is the big brother to the 962L we discussed above. This salmon steelhead spinning rod still excels with light line and finesse presentations on smaller water, but has a bit more backbone. This rod is ideal for when fishing small tributaries that have large fish or lots of structure such as brush or boudlers that may require you to put a little more pressure on hard-fighting salmon or steelhead in order to land them. This is an excellent rod for Great Lakes anglers and beyond for fishing small - medium sized tributaries!

1062UL

The 10'6" Ultralight Flagship Salmon & Steelhead Spinning Rod was designed to fish very light line or leaders and very delicate presentations. This salmon steelhead rod has a true ultralight action, meaning it bends deep into the blank of the rod when under full load. This ultralight action is what makes this spinning rod ideal for finesse presentations with very light line. Small floats with single egg patterns, 6mm beads, or other small presentations, a small amount of split shot, and 4lb test are what the 10'6" ultralight Flagship Salmon Steelhead Spinning rod excels at. Light leaders and small hooks are easily protected by the rod's deep bend and soft tip. It's also a thrill to hook a big fish on this rod and watch it bend almost to the cork!

1062ML

The 10'6" Medium Light Flagship Salmon & Steelhead Rod is your go-to when you're fishing moderate-size float fishing applications or chucking light hardware. This rod is rated for 6-15lb line and lures up to 1/2oz, so you'll have no issue using 6-20g floats or throwing your average-size spoons, spinners, or crankbaits. This is likely one of the most universal, all-purpose, rods in the Flagship Salmon Steelhead line up, for use everywhere from Great Lakes tributaries to the Pacific Northwest!

1062M

The 10'6" Medium Flagship Salmon & Steelhead Rod is your ideal heavier float/hardware rod. It's excellent for fishing larger tributaries or throwing spoons, spinners, and crankbaits on the heavier side. This rod is rated for 8-15lb line and for up to 3/4oz lures, so it excels with deep slip or fixed float rigs that require lots of weight. This salmon steelhead spinning rod has a very solid backbone, but still maintains a soft tip and great action thanks to the rod's unique graphite blend. If you love to fish big tributaries for big fish, this is a rod you'll want to add to your arsenal!

1102L

The 11' Light Flagship Salmon & Steelhead Spinning Rod is ideal for moderate - light float fishing applications. This salmon steelhead rod's 11' length allows you to easily manage line on just about any drift. It's rated for use with 4-10lb line and has a plenty soft enough tip to protect it, and also keep small hooks pinned during violent headshakes, runs, and rolling on the line. This salmon steelhead spinning rod exhibits a surprisingly strong backbone while fighting a fish thanks to its unique blend in graphite. If you're looking for a light action float rod the 1102L Flagship Salmon & Steelhead Rod is a great fit for you!

    I made a mistake when I ordered this rod, I was expecting the ultra light rod with the buy one get one promo. I emailed customer service and Mr. Lee quickly responded and made sure I received the ultra light. I bought this as a Christmas gift for my grandson who lives in Oregon, prime location for salmon. So if anything, CS is outstanding.

    Great rod for steelhead! Broke the tip off my Okuma guide select pro, and decided to give this pole a shot. FishUSA had a great sale, and glad I bought it. First morning out caught 6 fish with it and it handled exceptionally well. 10’6” ML perfect for Great Lakes Steelhead. Thanks FIshUSA.

    Absolutely hands down my new favorite rod to use! I use this rod paired with my centerpin reel and boy was I impressed! I’ve landed dozens of chrome and even took this rod to NY for kings. Even with being a “light” rod there’s still plenty of action with a solid backbone to lend a hand landing the big one! I recommend this rod to everyone and I guarantee I will be buying more for myself! Much appreciation for those in the creation of this rod!! Well done!
