Daleys Hunt and Fish in Port Arthur carries them in store and takes orders for customs

You need to go put a Classic Med/Light, Latis Stik, and Devil Stik in your hands to see wich one best suits you before you pull tha trigger

They're awesome until they break

The Devil Stik is by far and away the best plastics rod I have ever owned. Light, Light, Light, Light, Light and very sensitive. Did I say Light?? I have other custom rods, but weight is definitely noticeable after throwing the Laguna for a while. I just have a Citica on mine right now, but Bruno's rod with a Core is ridiculously light.

Bruno is the guy to talk to as I believe he is now on their pro staff.

Only con I can think of is the price.

Just to be fair, Chuck (charlies) did team up with another rod builder to build some semi-custom rods for TTF. They are great rods and I believe they go for around $250, if TTF has anymore. I believe from talking with Tal they were trying out a run of em'.

I still have my Charlies and fish with it each trip, but the Laguna is definitely lighter and, it feels to me anyway, it's more sensitive. Bruno is having a Laguna topwater rod made and I am interested in trying it out before I get another one.
