Bull Bay Stealth-X Spinning Rod

The Bull Bay Stealth-X Spinning Rod is Bull Bay's flagship inshore spinning rod, built for anglers who demand the highest level of sensitivity, casting performance, and durability. Designed and handcrafted at Bull Bay's headquarters in Lakeland, Florida, the Stealth-X takes the proven Stealth Sniper platform to the next level with premium components and cutting-edge technology.

At the heart of the Stealth-X is an ultra-sensitive 36-ton blended graphite blank that delivers exceptional feel while maintaining the power needed to battle hard-fighting fish. Whether you're working soft plastics across grass flats, skipping docks for snook, casting topwaters for redfish, or fishing finesse presentations for bass, the Stealth-X provides outstanding responsiveness and casting accuracy.

What truly sets the Stealth-X apart are its U.S.-made RECOIL® titanium guides. Unlike traditional ceramic guides, RECOIL guides can flex and bend under pressure before returning to their original shape, eliminating concerns about cracked inserts while reducing overall rod weight. Combined with a lightweight carbon fiber reel seat featuring an ergonomic design and high-density EVA grips, the result is a rod that's exceptionally comfortable to fish all day.

Designed to pair perfectly with 2500–4000 size spinning reels, the Stealth-X excels across a wide range of artificial lure presentations while remaining versatile enough for live bait applications. Whether you're targeting Florida's inshore species or freshwater bass, this rod delivers tournament-level performance with premium American craftsmanship.
