Sunset Atlas Troll SW 66 Boat Rod (12-20lb)

The Master of the Acid Wrap Precision Slow Trolling

The Sunset Atlas Troll SW is a specialist piece of kit designed for the serious boat angler. This 66 single-blank rod is a technical masterpiece, specifically engineered for slow trolling with live bait. At the heart of its design is the Acid Guides Systema spiral guide assembly where the line starts on top of the rod and rotates around the blank to finish underneath. This prevents the rod from twisting under heavy load, offering unparalleled stability and power when a monster predator is pulling back.

Constructed from 24T Technifibre carbon, the Atlas Troll provides a sensitive tip to monitor the frantic vibrations of your live bait, backed up by a massive reserve of power in the butt. Finished with premium SeaGuide SiC reinforced guides and a heavy-duty aluminum reel seat, this rod is built for the high-octane world of blue-water and deep-shore trolling.

Key Specifications

Where & How to Use It

• Live Baiting for Apex Predators: This rod was born for targeting hard-fighting species like Dentex, Leerfish, and Amberjack. The 12-20lb rating is the sweet spot for maintaining finesse with a live mackerel or squid while having the backbone to stop a fish diving back into the reef.

• Slow Trolling (Downpumping): Use this rod with a downrigger or a heavy sliding sinker. The spiral guide system ensures that even when the rod is bent double in a rod holder or your hands, the line never touches the blank, reducing friction and heat build-up.

• Deep Water Reef Fishing: While designed for trolling, the Atlas Troll is an exceptional tool for working large soft plastics or live baits over deep-water wrecks for Pollock and Bass. The sensitive 24T carbon allows you to feel the difference between a pebble and a tentative bite.

• Light Sharking & Tope: The stability provided by the Acid Wrap makes this an excellent choice for targeting Tope or Blue Sharks on light gear. You get all the benefits of a conventional multiplier setup without the rod wanting to flip over in your hands during the fight.

Gerrys Pro Tip:

It reduces wrist fatigue significantly, which is a massive plus when youre locked into a 20-minute battle with a stubborn Amberjack
