This selection of rods is a very condensed quantity of what is available to the customer. Each major manufacturer that I use has many different models and actions to choose from, each with a specific purpose.

Give me a call or write an e-mail with your specifications, or tell me what specific fish you intend to encounter, and I will offer a suggestion and promptly return a price quotation.

Spinning & Casting Rods

This casting rod was requested for tackling some of the largest striped bass possible in the Santee Cooper lake in South Carolina.

Designed for 1/2-3 oz lures, this rod is adorned with Titanium framed guides with silicone carbide inserts so even braid cannot cut their way through these beauties.

The grips are of dense but light-weight EVA foam with a large butt cap and machined aluminum reel seat. The running guides are underwrapped and the area above the fore-grip is decorated with a Dragon Scale decorative wrap in metallic blue!!

The decorative butt wrap is genuine rattlesnake skin on the rod designed for 12-20# line with a 11" rear grip and a 2½" foregrip. It also sports an ALPS triangular reel seat in Blue anodized aluminum.

The guides are TiCh plated with Cobalt Blue zirconia inserts

This heavy action bass rod was for a dear friend of almost 40 years. Given at Christmas 2011 by myself and a mutual friend. His first striped bass was 29" in length and "in the bracket" so it had to be returned to the water . . .Great first Catch, WICK!!

St. Croix . . .7'0" - 2 piece Light Spinning Rod

Decorated with more genuine Rattlesnake skin and wrapped in royal Purple with gold metallic trim bands. Rod designed for 4-10# line with a fast action tip for accurate lure placement.

Designed with a minimal amount of rod space being used for the grip system, this allows for more rod to be used for the fishing!!
