C.E. Smith Gen3 Carbon Fiber Outriggers – Black – 22 ft Pair (Model 56551)
The C.E. Smith Gen3 Carbon Fiber Outriggers – 22 ft Pair are premium, high-performance outriggers engineered for serious anglers who demand strength, rigidity, and corrosion resistance in demanding offshore environments. These black Gen3 carbon fiber poles deliver exceptional durability and straightness — outpacing traditional fiberglass and aluminum alternatives — making them a top choice for sportfishing, big game fishing, and tournament rigs.
Crafted from advanced carbon fiber construction, each outrigger pole offers a lightweight yet incredibly stiff design that resists flexing under load. The solid fiberglass base provides extra strength at critical stress points, while the Taper-Lok joints lock sections together tightly to act like a single rigid piece.
These outriggers come complete with integrated dual 316 stainless steel halyard eyes that let you run multiple halyards cleanly and efficiently, reducing snag risks. An extra-long non-conductive tip minimizes line tangles in rough seas. For convenience, the poles collapse easily for storage — simply release the locking pins and slide the sections together.
This pair includes eight locking screws, two aluminum base sleeves for standard 1½" and 1⅝" holders, and a mesh storage bag to keep everything organized on deck or in the shop.
Key Performance Features
-
Taper-Lok Joints: These joints wedge tightly together when extended, creating a single, rigid pole that behaves like a one-piece unit.
-
Integrated Dual 316 Stainless Eyes: Features built-in dual halyard eyes for running multiple lines per pole. The smooth design prevents line snags or chafing.
-
Extra-Long Non-Conductive Tip: Specifically designed to prevent line tangles in high winds and rough waters.
-
Galvanic Corrosion Protection: Engineered to prevent the galvanic reactions common with carbon fiber components, ensuring the poles don't seize or degrade over time.
-
Solid Fiberglass Base: The bottom section is constructed of solid fiberglass for maximum strength and stability where the pole seats into the holder.
-
Telescoping Convenience: The sections slide inside one another for easy storage in the included mesh bag when not in use.

Do you need a rigging kit to go with these poles?
Standard 22' poles usually require a double rigging kit to utilize the dual stainless eyes. I can recommend a high-quality kit from Taco or C.E. Smith that includes the pulleys, release clips, and shock cords—would you like me to find one for you?
These carbon fiber outriggers combine professional-grade performance and marine durability — perfect for tournament anglers and serious boaters who want superior strength without added weight.
