SLOW PITCH RODS

Slow Pitch Jigging Rods are highly specific and unique looking rods, which feature actions that are very moderate and very parabolic. They use highly evolved, lightweight, and strong blanks, but require a rod with the correct tip stiffness to impart action on the jig in deep water.

The Nomad Design Slow Pitch Jigging Rods also feature the Helix 30T system of Japanese high end 30 Tonne Toray Carbon.

The deep bend through the entire blank of the rod, dictates no large foregrip to interfere with the rod’s action.

Slow Pitch Jigging Rods depend on a reel with strong drag constantly monitored during the fight, to counter their lightweight parabolic nature.
