Bryan's personal favorite — designed for anglers who fish hard and move fast.
The 57" Tournament Spike is the lightest spike in the SFS lineup, built from T6 aluminum for maximum strength without the weight. At 57", it gives your rod tip extra height above the wave face — critical when you're fishing heavy surf with long casts and need line clearance to detect strikes.
The defining feature is its quick-release design: you can lift your rod straight out of the spike even under full line tension. No fumbling, no lost seconds when a fish runs. That matters at tournament time, and it's just as welcome on a casual beach day when the pompano are running.
Best for: Experienced anglers who want the lightest, most responsive spike available. Also great for anyone targeting fast-running species where quick rod access is an advantage.
Each spike is hand-built to order by Bryan in Jacksonville, FL. Allow approximately 2 weeks from order to shipment.
