Very surprised

Used the 10'6 for Chinooks on the Vedder River in a tough spot instead of my Sage. This cheap stick was as effective as any of my customs I paid $700 up. With an Abu 6500 bait caster it worked great. I never would have believed it was that nice. If this rod blank becomes available I will build one up. It should have double lock nuts for the reel mount, other then that it's a $250 plus rod all day.

I needed a float rod for winter steelhead. I did not want to spend more then 100.00. This is the perfect rod for that situation! Lifetime Warranty, great bobber rod but only good for one thing. Float fishing!

Love this rod!!! I use this rod for casting large streamer flies for smallmouth bass on some of our local rivers, handles 3-5 lbs smallies with no problems. I have no complaints what so ever, I'm going to be buying another soon.

These rods are built like a tank, and if you ever do break one, they have a great warranty. I use the 12' for steelhead fishing on Erie's tribs. Works great. Only con would be that the rod is a little heavy to be high-sticking all day.

At this time, it is hard to give you a true review of my ROD. I have not used it yet. I am going Salmon Fishing in Pulaski,NY. from 10/11 to 10/16. I'm sure I'll have a lot to say after that week. As of now, I like the way it feels, very easy to handle.
