Carrot Sticks
 

I have never been real impressed with carrot sticks. First of all they are like a sharp stick to the eye to look at. I recently purchased one of the 7' 9" Heavy power fast action models to throw a carolina rig with at Rayburn and toledo. I am not real happy with it and have offered it to a friend as he like the rod. I just recently ran across this article and wanted to pass it on. I have never been a big fan of Boyd Duckett. Not that I don't like him just indifferent. But after reading this article I have tremendous respect for him as he has gone against the grain and stood up for his beliefs in a business where you are made by the number of sponsors you maintain. Way to go Mr. Duckett--my hat is off to you.

Props to Boyd Duckett. He stood up for what he thought was right.

I've got family that live in Demopolis AL!!

Good for him...thats the way it should be...

I had one that I was using for bass fishing, but I decided to get rid of it. The guides on the LTX are absolute trash. Braided line sounded like a freight train coming through the guides. I also did not care for the foam grips. If they upgraded the guides, changed the grips, and made them more durable I would try them again. There are just too many good rods out there to make all these sacrifices just to have a lightweight rod.

I dont care if they were the best rod in the world you not gonna see me fishing with something that UGLY.

I'm sorry to hear that(ha). I had a brother that moved over there for a couple of years. Good sense got the better of him and he moved back to Louisiana.
