Default Top water rod

Looking for a new rod for the chronarch. Leaning towards Duce, but I'm not sure which one on their site would be best for tops? Anyone have any input or xp with Duce rods for top water?

Thanks for all the input. Anyone know what's the best way to purchase from them? I live in grand isle and really don't feel like driving to Rayne. I have tried both the website and the phone number on the site?

Do you want to do business with someone you can't contact? How much does customer service mean to you? Do you already have a bad taste in your mouth? Just questions you should answer for yourself.

I have two 6'8" mediums and really like them. The only problem I have is leader knot not fitting through the eyes.

If anyone from Duce reads this site frequently please contact me. I am having some serious problems with your company and before I go on a rant I would like to give you guys a chance to fix it. I have tried email, text, calling your phones everything. Getting near the 2 month mark and I am losing patience. Please contact me via pm, 337-349-4143, or email at jared_readenour@yahoo.com
