Back to the topics here

Go back and read post#39 where the owner of the company said "SAME owners, someone joined the team"

He ain't the owner according to the other guy..... I'm just trying to get the truth out.
Sorry for looking for the truth

Im telling you the truth. Im not calling matt g a liar I'm just telling you Matt Doucet and Anthony Beslin still own the company and now a third guy has joined them. Why is that so hard to understand??

Ok, but I wanna hear it from them.
And I want the whole story.

Man, it's all twisted up in here

All joking aside it's a below average rod, including blank and components. I know all you West siders tried real hard to like the rod, but the company couldn't even service all the warranty claims in only 3 or 4 parishes.

Boooommmmm goes the dynamite

OMG!!! Im telling you facts. Anthony and i have been best friends since 6th grade, Im his daughters godfather for god sakes!!! Matt Doucet and i literally grew up together, our dads are best friends. I don't care what these other guys are saying, Anthony and Matt still own the company and now there is a third guy involved.

Pure bay they just needed a financial backer and real business man to line things out for them

So its still the same? No better?

Too me it's simple

If you don't like the product don't buy it, if you like it buy it

What's the big deal?? Why bash a business who is a sponsor and has given way lots of rods at our own Saltycajun events

I have only had one very small issue with one of my Duce Rods.... Got it swapped out no questions asked same day.... Great service for me... Its a great rod IMO... ive used a lot of rods and for the price point I have not felt a better rod! im sure if I spent double the price of course theres a better rod. That logic goes with anything.

i dont care if satan himself owned it lol.... i liked the feel of the rod, even if it was a bad blank... before i threw it, i tested its durability vs my hand. i took a 14" section of the tip and turned it 180 deg which is plenty durable for me lol. then i tried more and it popped my finger so hard it bled. lesson learned hah. all they needed imo was to keep making rods. you can never please everyone and im sure they had problems with controlling how business was handled, especially since they exploded. just some coon a**ES making a product and didnt know anything else.

walmart has great warranty on any rod, break it and bring it back... they dont care.... doesnt mean i want to buy all my equipment from walmart.

Still wished mine would have floated. LOL
Think they warranty that?

maybe i should pull mine out the trash can...

Costa will replace it

solves everything lol

x2

When the Duce group showed up 2 years ago at the Gonzales sportsmans show they had a booth and I talked to the Duce group. Being I have had many custom rods made I noticed the color the feel of the rod and I knew it was a batson blank ,and I asked the Duce group was this a batson blank and he said Yes. That's how I know I asked them. W I hope that Enlightens you.

OMG LMAO :rotfl:

[quote=specknation;678769]So all Baston Blank rods are all below avg rods?

[quote="W";678771]They make 4 levels of blanks, and to answer your question they have had quality issues with all 4 levels. In terms you can understand they brake more than they should. Are you the guy that said Kistler puts Helium in there rods?

Well Put! Haters gone Hate

[quote=specknation;678773]Do u know where Kistler gets there blanks? Waterloo? St. Croix? All considered high end rods right?

The kistlers on northfork blanks are great. The waterloo slam mag on the batson rx8 is ok. Could care less about st. Croix because i have not been impressed with even their legend extreme series which ive owned 3.

[quote=specknation;678773]
I never used a kistler rod in my life......but I have used Custom rods for now 6 years or so...

Can you list all the custom rod companies that use Baston Blanks ?

[quote="W";678782]Let me brake it down for you batson makes the rx6 blank the rx7 blanks which are cheap blanks that duce used for there rods. The rx8 blank is used in the waterloo upper line blank like bayouchub stated is a little better. And as for as telling you how many custom rod companies that use Batson Blanks, nobody knows the answer to a question that dumb. There are thousands of custom rod companies throughout the USA LOL

They said they changed blanks but your still saying they are lower??? So how do you know the new blanks are below avg.? If I was a Lawyer I could eat you up in court on your clams..LMAO

You have stated ZERO proof other than your opinion (which is fine) but your opinion does not mean PROOF that the Duce series is a below Avg rods

I love me some "below average" blanks then I guess.... even my ML has flipped in many oversized reds.

LOL a Lawyer, I will say one thing in court and it is a quote from you "THEY PUT HELIUM IN KISTLER RODS" and you stated that on this website game, set, match. Your knowledge of rods are real bad, so stop acting like you know anything about them. LOL

ONE KNOCKER son ONE FREAKIN KNOCKER!!

LMAO 1st off I never used a Kistler and if you find my comment you will find I SAID.... I WAS TOLD they have HELIUM in them...

HOW WOULD I KNOW IF I NEVER USED ONE??? THAT IS WHY I ASKED



but again you are stating your opinion on a rod that you really have zero PROOF to back your saying

you said it was a lower grade....PROVE IT , stop doing like Obama and going around the question

Why is DUCE out of business? They couldn't warranty all the rods that broke, good high quality blanks DO not break at the rate the DUCE rods broke. It's simple if these rods where above average quality they would have lasted way longer.

Here we go again... 10 or 15 pages before they shut it down?

Attachment 65940

thats a pretty bold statement. do you know the tensile and yield strength of any of these rods? i know just as many people who dislike top of the line rods from any maker cause, in fact, they break them a loooot.

Kistler Zbone have less than a 1% percentage break rate, check it on the website. GLoomis NRX comes with a wildcard that if you break it they will replace no questions ask. These are the two rods I used for the past few years and have had no breakage on either brand, but if I does no worries they will have warranty.

yea i understand the warranty thing. that hopefully is the change. but ive never broke a DUCE but ive negligently broke every rod, ever. lol

What are the prices on those two rods you listed?

nm looked it up myself... 399-419 dollars a rod! and you comparing them to a 120-140 duce rod! don't make any sense to me.... I stated that for the PRICE the duce rod is the best rod ive used!

Regardless of price who wants to buy a rod that breaks at a high rate, and two that you can't get any warranty work. Your buddy stated that high end rods break easy, that is simply not true anymore.

As I said before I don't understand how ppl are breaking these duce rods! I fish 2-3 times a week and these rods get NO special treatment. I have caught a lot of bigger redfish from a kayak with the ML rod and had it bent 180 degrees never broke. I have had one problem with them and it didn't break just the grip was twisting a lil bit.. .got it swapped out no questions asked.
