Is any fishing more expensive than big-game angling? The offshore boats, the fuel, the tackle. Even a rod and reel can set you back like a mortgage payment.

All Star Rods has taken care of the part about the tackle. The company has launched a line of affordable offshore rods.

Coastal Classic Offshore Rods are built for tackling offshore game at a suggested retail price from $59.95 to $69.95.

Available in both casting and spinning models, the rods are constructed with blanks made from graphite and glass composite. Featuring stainless steel guides with aluminum oxide inserts, they come with Fuji graphite reel seats, aluminum gimbals and rubber butt covers.

The rods are offered in these sizes:
