X-11 Cork Handle
Salmon and steelhead casting and spinning rods for drift, float, plug, and hardware techniques across Northwest and Great Lakes rivers.
The Lamiglas X-11 Cork Handle series is a long-running salmon and steelhead lineup built on merlot-finished IM graphite blanks. The lineup spans 20 casting and spinning models from 7'9" through 11'6", covering line ratings from 2-6 lb noodle work up to 15-40 lb back-trolling powers. Lamiglas markets the series as a Northwest and Great Lakes staple with affordable pricing relative to its higher-tier rods.
Components include stainless steel deep-press chrome guides, exposed graphite reel seats for blank contact, and full traditional cork grips. Blanks are produced in one and two-piece configurations depending on length and intended technique. The series carries Lamiglas' one-year limited warranty. Model codes follow the LX[length][power] pattern with C for casting and S for spinning.
Specific sub-line suffixes appear on certain SKUs, with light noodle spinning rods made for float work, mid-power spinning and casting rods built for drift, float, and hardware presentations, and heavier casting rods made for plug pulling, back-bouncing, and large river kings.
