Smith Offshore Stick Lim Pack OLPS 76 XH spinning rod
A travel rod for big fish
The Smith Offshore Stick Lim Pack OLPS 76 XH was developed for travelling anglers looking for a powerful, reliable and easy-to-transport rod. Its four-section format greatly reduces packed size while retaining the performance expected of a true exotic fishing rod.
It is aimed at anglers heading to big-fish destinations who want to take on powerful opponents without compromising on power reserve, action quality or blank reliability.
A progressive and powerful action
The OLPS 76 XH features a progressive action capable of absorbing heavy pressure during the fight. This progressive nature effectively tires the fish while maintaining a smooth, reassuring and comfortable curve for the angler.
Thanks to its resilience, the rod works on behalf of the angler and maintains constant pressure. This action reduces fatigue during prolonged fights and delivers a real gain in efficiency against powerful tropical fish.
Designed for poppers and stickbaits
This XH version is ideal for popper and stickbait fishing, especially when conditions call for the use of large lures. It allows a powerful popper to be worked effectively while retaining the control needed both when casting and when fighting fish.
It is particularly suited to fishing for GT trevally and bluefin tuna, two species that demand a rod capable of combining power, responsiveness and endurance.
A modern composite carbon blank
Smith uses a technology combining 24T and 7.4T carbon on the Offshore Stick Lim Pack 70 series. This construction provides elasticity, power and resilience, while benefiting from the strength of woven carbon.
The resulting action is close to the spirit of KOZ rods, with the ability to let the blank work to tire the fish quickly. This design makes the rod pleasant to use, even during intensive exotic fishing sessions.
A practical format for travel
The Lim Pack OLPS 76 XH was designed to pack easily into luggage thanks to its reduced packed length. This travel format is a major advantage for anglers who want to avoid the constraints associated with transporting long rods.
It comes supplied with a spigot wax stick to ensure proper maintenance of the joints and preserve assembly quality over time.
