Quantum has unveiled an entire line of rods and reels Òperformance tunedÓ for saltwater fishing. The PT line includes the top-of-the-mark Cabo product family with its baitcast, levelwind, conventional trolling and spinning reels and rods for inshore, nearshore and offshore fishing. Cabo spinning reels are coated with Saltgard, a finish with six layers of corrosion protection. The reels also feature a solid one-piece aluminum frame and sidecover, multistack Magnum Ceramic Drag system and the TiMAG Salt bail system, an oversize bail wire made of nickel titanium that's flexible and won't bend out of shape. The CSP30PTS (120 to 250 yards of 6- to 10-pound test) and the CSP40PTS (200 to 270 yards of 8- to 12-pound test) employ eight bearings, offer 5.2:1 gear ratios and retail for $189.95. The CSP50PTS (170 to 260 yards of 10- to 14-pound test) and CSP60PTS (210 to 260 yards of 12- to 20-pound test) use nine bearings, offer 4.9:1 gear ratios and cost $199.95.
