Custom Fishing Rods Reel Tech Custom-Classic salmon rod build. October 12, 2011 The Reel Tech Leave a comment I had another customer who desired a classic style, heavier action salmon rod rated 15-30#. This rod was built using a Rogue SM 828 8’2″ 15-30# blank. He is excited to get this rod into action for the upcoming Chetco River salmon run!!
