I just got a convergence 8-17# 10ft salmon/steelhead rod and went to the island to put it to the test. Awesome rod, really light rod and the battles from those island steelhead was just absolutely amazing on the medium power slow action! The 6 inch differance from my old rod is really unoticable and I highly recommend one of these rods

Thanks for the offer on the coupon, I don't think I'll be able to get down by then 31st though, appreciate the offer though

Sounds like a 10 foot is just as good as a 10'6 I'll keep my eyes peeled for a deal out there

Found a good price in an 8'6 foot shimano, but is that to short to drift in faster water?

You will struggle trying to get a good drift on larger flows like the lower Vedder.
It would be fine for the upper Vedder or smaller flows.
8'6" makes a good spinning rod for Salmon.

i own a shimano technium, i bought it this year for 189.99

its 10.5 feet in length, lifetime warranty
12-20 lb test
medium fast tip, and its a beautiful salmon rod.

it is similar to the convergence and clarus rods but is built for BC, they named it the technium "west coast edition" and i dont think it sells everywhere
 picked it up at hatch matchr in maple ridge

hope that helps, its a great rod for the price!

i got the 13 foot clarus pin rod absolutly love it so much power and love the lightert line u feel the slightest head shake. you can also apply the pressure when fishing by large rocks.
