That is a sweet rod I might have two invest in one myself

Montauk17 12-21-2009 10:56 PM

Nice,what guides did you get with it?

LaAngler 12-21-2009 10:58 PM

i wanted fuji ti sic rings but got alconite saltwater fuji concepts

i like them, my stick retailed at 199 but they knocked 50 bucks off

huntin fool 12-21-2009 11:00 PM

LaAngler 12-21-2009 11:06 PM

I thought they did...Didn't nate break like 2 skeletons? I checked them out the other day...nice rod. Only reason i didn't like them was i read where a few others broke theirs

LaAngler 12-21-2009 11:10 PM

he broke 4 i think, keyword "he"

my only complaint about the rod is the balance point is a little further forward than i wish it was, but at this price point very hard to beat IMO

i just can't see 320 dollars for a rod, and from what i've seen the QC over there isn't the best. Only way I'd buy another is if I could hand pick it. plus a BIG discount

Bluechip 12-22-2009 07:42 PM

May try out the Houston Boat Show next month...

I assume they have some quality rod dealers there but are they making deals on merchandise???

Choupique 12-23-2009 12:22 AM

I just got a rod built with fuji K series micro guides, tis sick!

LaAngler 12-23-2009 11:06 AM
