Billy,

I just got it today, and SHE’S A BEAUTY!!! You beat your delivery date by far. Now I can’t wait to try it out. Good thing is, I took all of next week off…
Again, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! It’s just exactly what I had imagined. You do some EXCELLENT work, my good man!

Your friend,
Kenny Taylor

I broke an all star rod on the first day.
Same with the Shimano. But they replaced it free.
All Star Rod basically said to shove it, in a really nice way.
If you buy a cheap rod, you get a cheap rod.

Billystix are the cadalacs of fishing rods.....hands down
