Thomas & Thomas Exocett Predator Fly Rod

There’s one Musky/Pike rod on the market that’s better than the rest. The Thomas & Thomas Exocett Predator is a phenomenal rod designed specifically for Musky fishing. This rod is a manifestation of hours on the water chasing these large predators, and the design has been honed and tweaked to fit any Musky angler’s needs. This rod is lightweight, incredibly durable, strong, and has an increased overall length for boat-side hookups. If you’re serious about Musky/Pike, the Predator will give you the best chance of landing one.

Blank

Advanced StratoTherm Resin - T&T’s proprietary StratoTherm tech produces rods that are accurate and lively. The blank of the Exocett Predator is light and responsive with high recovery speeds and vibration-dampening characteristics. The rod blank’s power translates to high performance at longer casting distances.

 

Guides

Titanium Frame Stripping Guides - The Exocett Predator rods have two large titanium-framed stripping guides that are strong enough to handle the heaviest sinking fly lines. The stripping guides are also corrosion-resistant and saltwater safe.

RECoil Titanium Alloy Snake Guides - RECoil snake guides bounce back when bent or crushed. Snake guides are used by many major rod manufacturers because of their lightweight, minimalist design.

 

Reel Seat

Milled Aluminum Reel Seat w/Double Uplocking Components - The reel seat on the Exocett Predator is designed to withstand saltwater corrosion. A matte black milled aluminum design with heavy-duty double uplocking components makes the reel seat of the Exocett Predator weatherproof and intensely functional. An ultra-premium cork full wells grip makes casting and fighting large fish easy and comfortable.

 

Rod Tube

Aluminum Rod Tube - The Exocett Predator comes in a blue powder-coated aluminum rod tube that protects the rod during travel and transportation. These tubes are durable and include a T&T rod sock for increased fly rod protection.

 

Warranty

T&T Lifetime Warranty - As of July 2019, T&T offers an original owner lifetime warranty against breakage due to defects in materials or workmanship. Rods must be registered with T&T within 30 days of purchase. The warranty does not cover lost sections or lost rods, normal wear and tear, neglect, or intentional breakage.
