Okuma Silver Slayer A Series Tarpon Rods

When it’s time to chase the silver king, you need a rod built to match its power, speed, and relentless fight. The Okuma Silver Slayer A Series Tarpon Rods have been completely redesigned with improved lengths and actions to give serious tarpon anglers the advantage when it matters most.

The updated lineup now includes four purpose-built models:

• Two 7'6" rods

• Two 7'11" rods
  Available in Heavy and X-Heavy powers

Whether you’re making long casts to laid-up fish or applying maximum pressure boat-side, there’s a model dialed in for your style and conditions.

Built for the Battle

At the core of the Silver Slayer A Series is a 24-ton carbon rod blank, delivering the ultimate balance of strength, lifting power, and responsiveness. When a hundred-plus-pound tarpon goes airborne, confidence in your gear is everything.

The rods also feature UFRII (Ultimate Flex Reinforcement) Rod Tip technology, increasing tip durability and impact resistance without sacrificing sensitivity, critical for absorbing violent head shakes and blistering runs.

Premium components round out the build:

• SeaGuide double locking Alien reel seat for rock-solid reel security

• Fuji K-Concept guides with FazLite inserts for exceptional braid durability and reduced line tangles

• Designed to perform flawlessly with today’s high-performance braided lines

Designed for Serious Tarpon Anglers

From long drifts along coastal passes to sight-casting on the flats, the Silver Slayer A Series delivers the backbone, control, and reliability needed to put silver in the boat.

Pack one for your next tarpon adventure, and be ready when the water explodes.
