Anyone remember this pic
 

Was going through some pics and came across this one. :rotfl:

billystix lol,lol,lol

More like broomstix....I must admit the man has marketing skills,he got alot of us.

I have two of them (going on 3 year's now)and like them both maybe he was in a good mood when he built mine????

OCR had a "used" med light Billystix for $75. Told him no thanks, heard too many bad things.

He made me a fine lookin rod till it snapped in half. Then I could send him the old and he'd replace it for 175!!! By the time I shipped everything and the headache I coulda just bought a new one straight up. No thanks

I was wondering what happened to that fella, he aint been around in quite a while

thats what mine looked like off of croaker.........it wasn't a big one either

He is making to much money on 2cool now that's why he ain't here.

He is not a site sponsor anymore

WE used Speckdaddys for a push pole..

He rubbed me wrong the 1st time when he said he would donate a rod for free on a raffle ....then the winner had to pay over $100 for shipping and other crap he added to a Free Rod(of the winners choice )

So the Free rod cost over $100

I stuck mine in a spot we were catching trout off pelican point,wonder if it is still there.

yea thats junk there. I mean most of us will drop well over 100 on a rod but there are alot of people that wont even spend close to that for a rod. and to win one and then be expected to pay 100 for it is just junk

Yep I was pissed...I think J.W. won it......When I heard that crap i knew I was done with him..he keep wanting me to buy a rod just to try...
I told him at least...(REAL # of times) 25 times...... make me the lightest 6,10 rod you have and send it for Free...If I like it ill think about buying but that is the only way...


His last bid was $90 bucks and I pay shipping..LOL..Never got a rod

Only good thing about it was it was super light weight. Action was more suited for tuna fishing than trout and reds. Told him several times I wanted a medium action. No where close to what I wanted. Not to mention the reel seats he uses are junk and don't hold your reel tight. When I told him about it he said just wedge a some paper under the seat to tighten it up. Guess he does not realize paper falls apart when wet. When I called him about the broken rod he said I will make you a killer deal.....180 to replace the rod. LOL

Ha. Billy fell off his hill!

if you really think about it, I'm sure people in his area are hip to his quality because all his sales and stuff are off of texas and louisiana fishing sites. nothing on any florida sites. soo why would a "great" rod builder be selling all his rods 3 states away instead of in his own state

yup they eatin him up over there

No doubt.....will stick to local builders from here on out. Lesson learned

I won one in a raffle on here. I had to pay 30 in shipping.

Not everybody. :shaking: Them Stix threads over there used to get hammered til Mont put a stop to it.

I talked to Don at OCR and he said the american tackle blanks he uses are junk....very light but brittle.

Damn, i taught mines was the only one that broke, 1st one i got and broke it so i called and complained and he sent me another one for free and broke that one too,lol, thats when i gave up and said the hell with it.

I thought his rods were a little over done! I want a simple rod, I like the spiral rods, but I don't want a whole lotta thread work and fancy decals all over it, if I want a piece of art, I'll go buy a painting, but my fishing is simple! I got 3 kajun limb rods and I'm happy with them I use them bass fishing only, I got some shimano rods for trout and reds and when they brake it don't cost me a dime to replace em. and thats what I paid for!! but on my kajun limbs I've broke guides and got them replaced and thankfully it was done for free.

I've broke 2 shimanos on hook sets. Bring to shop. Replace for free.

f billy stix that dude is a crook!

Damn pox, you must have had one too. Lol

Only one word I can say FALCON!

Falcon Caras are the poo!!

I think it was Jaclyn.renea had won a free "custom" rod in a raffle and he tried to screw her over. Her and Jordan and to tune him up. Something about he was making them choose from what he had rather than getting them what they wanted. Sorry my details are sketchy. Have heard nothing but terrible about that guy.

At least with the 30 bucks shipping that I had to pay I got a nice 8 foot length of sewer pipe.

Lmao.....

Yeah that homo got me for 2 of them pretzel sticks he called a fishing pole. I broke both of them on the same day! I hope he chokes on a "spiralstix".:pissed::pissed:

Love my Cara. I use that over my waterloo.

OMG! While doing a search for something else completely random I came across this on a CCA Banquet 2010 thread. lol:shaking::rotfl:

i got banned on here for talking bad about mine and about the guy.

he would not answer calls or emails. and sold a bad product.

Sounds like a bunch suckers in here! LOL

yeah he made plenty off of us for sure. i loved the look of the rod. guess i should of mounted it on my deer horns instead of fished with it

Glad I did not fall for that "pretty rod" thing he used as his marketing ploy....seems a lot on hete did.....

there is a suprise,

ASR not being the sucker for once

I went to OCR today and was overwhelmed with the different rods and options. The golf split grip was sweet but im not sure they would hold up wading in saltwater. I did get some of their jig heads though..

Do you have any of their rods?

This is the picture that got 3/4 of us banned! I got it twice in 24 hr period! :rotfl: Second time said FOREVER!:eek::grinpimp:

LOL I forgot about that

Yeah I have two....a 7' spinning rod and a 7' 6" casting rod,both medium action. I like them alot plan on buying more.

Billy never got me... rods looked weird...now Duce rods got me to buy one...best rod I ever used.

Bought my ex wife one ... Sh I t cost me 200 buck and she never used it !! Anyways I think he was a pro bulls4itter

Yep....love it!

I thought about getting one, when he was on here, having contests for one thinking I was missing out. I thought he was over the SC way, but then he bashed me saying he was south west Florida, and I thought is it was strange that he was selling to you guys way over there.

Pretty good scammers

Haha... Funny someone should mention this... These are messages sent back and forth from when I won my billy stix...

Billy
I need a number to contact you. Didn't see it on here anywhere.
Jaclyn

did you read where you had won?????
if so then you saw my phone ####
stix

Sorry Billy! I was on my phone and couldn't see the signature. I have it now thought. Expect a call either tonight or tomorrow. Sorry that it has taken so long. It has been one crazy couple of weeks. Jordan was sick. Mom had surgery. Vice president showing up at work. That sorta thing. Again, sorry for taking so long. Thank you for being so patient!

i checked my rod blank inventory, i do not have a med hvy blank in stock, all that i have is a 7ft med hvy with a full grip, if i were to build you a split grip i would have to order another blank so that i can do it no trig and split grip and i will be happy to do so but i will need to charge you for the materials $40 plus the $30 ship but you are still way ahead of the game because i normally charge xtra for split grips as well.
so for $70 you would be getting a custom billystix that would sell normally for $325 for $70.
now if i don't get your mailing addy i can't go ahead with the building, you are going to have to cooperate with me on this.
stix

Billy,
The 7ft med hvy will the full grip is fine.
For a bait caster.
I would still like to have the orange, white, & silver.
No graphics.
Jaclyn Renea in silver if possible.
I need your address so that I can send the check out to you.
Thanks in advance.
However, I do have to admit that I am a little irritated. When I signed up for the free rod, I didn't think it was going to be this difficult. First, you were rude about me not being able to see your phone number in your signature because I was on my phone. Now, you don't have something in stock and I have to pay extra for it. That isn't a big deal. However, not in any of those post was there any stipulations of what you had or didn't. I don't have a problem paying the $30 for shipping, but I don't think it is fair for me to pay extra for the "free" rod that you said you would make. I am not trying to cause problems or make things any harder on you. I do appreicate the contest and am excited about having my own Billy Stix. I've used them in the past and like I said, they are a great rod! You do amazing work Billy! :]
I hope that you can understand where I am coming from. Maybe next time you need to make things a little clearer so people know what they are signing up for. I wanted to bring this to you first instead of posting a nasty thread about this... I hope that you can respect that and see it for what it is.
Again, thank you in advance and I hope that these problems can be resolved.
Jaclyn Renea
