stix

thanks billy....that thhing looks purrty

Jordan i Heard shimano was looking for some pro staff, you should send em a resume

i dont fish tournaments, just ponds...

It's beautiful Billy! Ya did a great job. :]

Wait, scratch that, Shimano and G.Loomis is not sponsoring any professional anglers right now

Thats explains why they dropped Jimmy Houston... They wanted Jordan :eek: I could have sworn it was do to the economy :help:

Sponsorship feild is prettyy bad right now, darn the economy


good Stix billy

Nice rod, and an even better way to handle business. two thumbs up

me and medheavy slammed our billy stix in the tailgate errr, set the hook on a monster by the pond we fished yesterday and broke our rods.

think you could hook us up?

nice looking rod by the way. if i could afford to spend that kind of money on that rod i would

just did a few more shots looks a little better
 

ok, the battery is charged so i shot a few more ,i think they look a little bit better, i changed the setting on the camera "like i know what immm doing right" :*****::*****: let me know how you like these.
stix

Looks great man

How could you have possibly misspelled that??? Its 3 words man!!!! LOL

Stix, you found the 'macro' setting. Nice work and pics.

nice work billy.

i think so !!!

Nice job Billy........

If Jordan slammed his rod in the tailgate, how'd it break in 2 places. Case closed

going to shipto jordan on thur
 

yall get ready, i am going to ship this rod on thur so it should arrive in sat's mail depending on the local post office hub, if it has enough carriers it will be sat if they are a small hub then it will be mon before it's delivered.
so jordan if you dont get it in sat mail i can give you the track# and you can go to your post office on sat and pick it up, but i would like for as many people to get a look at it as possible because i would like to build some more of the salty cajun spirals it looks a lot better in hand than the photos.
stix

let's just not go there :*****:
stix

thanks guy's
this make's what i do worth the hrs i go thru without sleep or much rest, it's my reward, i just went to my dr on wed, he is one of those high dollar guy's that works on the brain you know the ones i mean like when you have strokes and seziures and elipsey type crap, he tells my lady she needs to keep me doing what ever it is that immmm currently doing because it's working great for me and she has at least 15 years more of my crap to put up with, just hope i can build rods for a while longer, say 10 more years that would be good, i might get caught up by then.
jordan should be thru bustin rod's by then :*****::*****::*****:
stix

knowing him he probably did it twice

in all seriousness, i would really like to know how he did it, because NO ONE believes that he did it setting the hook on a fish

we are all fishermen jordan you cant fool us

just tell the truth

thats the truth dude... send me your mailing address, i'll spend the $35 to ship the broken rod to you... you can examine it yourself since your a rod expert !!

one other thing, remember that rod i bought from you last thanksgiving day ??? It broke the next day... is this a trend ?? Or a coincidence ?? I told you it broke... what answer did you give me ?? "It wasnt broken when i gave it to you.."

you wont convince me that you broke two rods setting them on fish

esp two high end rods

thats hiularious... i bought a rod from jlincecum. SAME ROD I BOUGHT FROM YOU... identical.... it aint broken.... im sorry for whatever you think of me. I dont throw my **** around..

so why isnt that one broke if you have such a hard hook set for 4 pound fish

I broke 2 HIGH dollar custom rods within a week. One just casting, the other I was hung & pulled back & broke in the exact spot as the other. Both rods were bought at the same time & were less than a month old. Come to find out the rod manufactor had a problem with their machine, the poor guy that built the rods had like 15 rods in 2 months time come back.....wasn't his fault or mine. The rod manufactor found the cause & replaced the blanks for free.

it broke in two places?

i dont doubt that a rod could break.

but in two places?

No...but It sure can if its a bad blank.

i suppose part of that 4 year degree is Rodology 101 where you rub, feel, and get to know your rods real well even possibly your classmates? :smokin:

Rodology?:*****::*****:

where you rub, feel, and get to know your rods real well even possibly your classmates? :eek::shaking:

just curious, he seems very knowledgeable on the subject

LOL, I like where this is headed. Im gonna go get a pan of jiffy pop going

haha

im good at touching rods

what can i say

Heck shawn, i think Yakem even teaches Rodology, so he can watch all the chilldrinz

i host a youth rodology course every month, where i inspect children's rods :grinpimp:

Billy, you are a true craftsman! Great work!!!!!

A few years back, I had a rod break on me in 2 places while setting the hook on a bass. I was fishing with a worm and the thing had wrapped me up in some lilies. It was one of those "expensive" quantam rods from Wal Markkkkks. I did get to catch the bass. He was all of 1.5 lbs. The rod was only a couple of months old.

BTW, that sounded a little weird! I guess I should have read the quote first!:*****:

:rolleyes::rolleyes::confused::rolleyes::confused: :rolleyes::confused::rolleyes::rolleyes:

r you confused Big J?

yessir

thanks dude always nice to hear from someone that likes your work :)
stix

I was simply backing up your story,cause I had the same thing happen to me. Several p eeps was wondering about the rod breaking in 2 places,but mine did the same thing. I just think it was prolly faulty blank,cause I set the hook the same as I always do.

thought u were reaming me like several other people on here do/did.... (apparently they never had a rod break) :shaking:
