Cutting-edge FishUSA Flagship Trolling Rods are custom-built freshwater trolling rods for salmon and walleye anglers working in the Great Lakes and beyond! We spent more than a year developing the one-of-a-kind line of salmon and walleye trolling rods in collaboration with fishing charter captains to fine-tune each rod's performance for specialty and versatility. The expert-approved walleye fishing and salmon downrigger rods feature nine models covering a range of actions and applications. From the versatile seven-footer that can be used with dipsy divers, planer boards, or as a copper line rod to a ten-foot trolling rod with a Twili Tip wire line guide for fishing divers with a wire line, FishUSA Flagship Trolling Rods series has a rod for all your trolling needs!


 

Ramp up your freshwater trolling rigs with thoroughly conceived FishUSA walleye and salmon trolling rods that incorporate a 24-ton graphite composite rod blank and high-quality components. Every element in our Flagship series of trolling rods underwent rigorous testing to get it right for the models' intended use while giving them the flexibility for multiple fishing techniques. These vital pieces include (but are not limited to) Sea·Guide components, stainless steel guides, and triangular EVA foam foregrips. Each FishUSA trolling rod reflects our knowledge of what makes standout walleye rods and when trolling for salmon and steelhead, as well as lake trout and other freshwater fish species.


 

The lineup includes a rod for nearly every freshwater trolling situation. We put everything into making these the best salmon and walleye trolling rods for the money. 

  • Steelhead trolling, walleye, and salmon fishing rods for downriggers
  • Sea·Guide uplocking reel seats with cushioned hoods
  • Sea·Guide stainless steel double-foot guides with no ring insert (on all models except the wire diver rods)
  • Wire diver rods use heavy-gauge stainless steel guides with hard ceramic inserts to reduce the risk of grooving caused by wire lines
  • Heavy-duty line keeper
  • Triangular EVA foam foregrip for extreme comfort
  • Designed and tested by FishUSA charter captains and pro staff
  • One-year limited warranty

Additional Rod Details

7'0" 1-piece

701MH General Boat

This versatile rod can be used in many locations on your boat as a planer board rod, diver rod, or copper rod. This rod was not designed for one specific application, and depending on your boat set-up, it's perfect for many different uses.

7'0" 2-piece

702ML Planer Board/Downrigger

This rod fishes well flatlining plugs on monofilament or braid off of big planer boards. It can also easily handle up to 5 colors of lead core. The rod can be used as a light downrigger rod if a lighter rod is preferred.

8'0" 2-piece

802M Planer Board/Downrigger

This rod excels when fishing big planer boards. The medium action is perfect for fighting fish but allows easy releases off your planer board tow lines. This rod can be used as a downrigger rod if a shorter downrigger rod is desired.

8'0" 2-piece

802MLC Leadcore/Copper

This rod is stout and has plenty of backbone for fighting big fish. Design features enable fishing lead core and copper line.

8'0" 2-piece

802MHW Wire/Diver

Don’t let the little brother of the wire diver rod family fool you! This rod has the same action as our 9ft and 10ft wire diver rods but the 8ft model provides more versatility, specifically on smaller boats. All guides are produced with the same zirconium inserts and a twili tip is pre-installed and ready to fish!

8'3" 1-piece

83MCB Telescopic

This rod was specifically designed to fish crankbaits off of inline planer boards. The rod has some backbone which is important for getting solid hooksets when fishing inlines. The trigger grip reel seat provides extreme comfort when fighting big fish.

8'6" 1-piece

86MBB Telescopic

This rod has a more moderate action than the crankbait telescoping rod. This rod is a great bottom bouncer rod and the softer tip provides the necessary ingredient for presenting your favorite presentation.

8'6" 2-piece

862M MVP

Our most versatile model, this is the longer companion to the 7’0” FFSHIP-T-701MH model. This rod can be your "MVP" because you can use it for so many different applications. Its most common spot on the boat is in a downrigger rod holder, but it's also an excellent planer board rod when fishing big boards. It can be used as a diver rod when fishing at slower speeds.

9'0" 2-piece

902MH Diver

This rod shines for diver fishing with monofilament or braid lines and has a great bend in the rod holder and great power when fighting big fish. We recommend not fishing this rod with a wire line as its guides were not developed to handle wire and will groove during continual use.

9'0" 2-piece

902MHW Wire/Diver

This rod is great for fishing divers with wire lines. This rod has the same blank as the FFSHIP-T-902MH model; the difference is in the guides. The guides on these rods are heavy-duty and are commonly found on saltwater rods. The heavy-gauge stainless steel adds strength and prevents crushing and deformation. The deep-drawn frame provides impact resistance and helps protect the ceramic ring, which guards against grooving from wire lines. These rods were tested extensively, and we found that these guides hold up the best when using a 30 lb. wire line. This rod also comes with an attached FJR Industries Twili Tip Wire Line Guide.

9'0" 2-piece

902ML Downrigger

This rod for downrigger fishing is long for more leverage when fighting fish. Its medium-light action has enough backbone to fight big fish, but it's not too heavy to detect bites from the smaller ones. We've been asked for a long time to develop a rod like this and are happy to introduce it to you!

10'0" 2-piece

1002MH Diver

This rod is the big brother to the FFSHIP-T-902MH and has the same power and action. The rod is terrific at diver fishing with monofilament or braid lines. Exhibiting excellent bend in the rod holder, it reveals great power when fighting big fish. We recommend not fishing this rod with a wire line. The guides will groove with extended use of wire lines.

10'0" 2-piece

1002MHW Wire/Diver

This rod boasts guides that can handle wire lines. This rod has the same blank as the FFSHIP-T-1002MH model; the only difference is that this rod's guides are heavy-duty and ones commonly found on saltwater rods. The heavy gauge stainless steel adds strength and prevents crushing and deformation. The deep-drawn frame helps protect the ceramic ring for greater impact resistance. These rods were tested extensively, and we found that these guides hold up when using a 30 lb. wire line when fishing divers. This rod also comes with an attached FJR Industries Twili Tip Wire Line Guide.

    I got to handle these rods at the Niagara Expo a few weeks back and I was thoroughly impressed. The gentleman I talked to was knowledgeable and honest about the product. The actions were all nice for each model and I was impressed with the guides that were used, all stainless guides with no inserts. The triangle foregrips are also a nice feature. I will be picking some of these rods up for sure.

    I'm thoroughly impressed with the construction of these rods and you can tell that there was a lot of thought put into them. I love that the wire rods come with a twili tip and heavy duty guides. The stainless steel guides on the rest of the rods are awesome and I don't know why more trolling rods have these. Great job on these FishUSA.
