13 Fishing Announces New Species-Specific Capture Rod and Reel Combos
To help you lock in to the species you want and put more meat on ice, 13 Fishing® has developed two new rod and reel combos under the name Capture. While one is designed specifically for panfish, the other caters to the walleye bite.
Anglers with a love for Ice Fishing, can now simplify their tools while upgrading in quality specifically designed for what they are targeting. The Capture Series has done the research and design for the Ice Anglers. With each length within each model, the rod blanks and actions get more defined to provide the best hook sets and landing percentage of both Panfish and Walleye.
