Default Attention Calcasieu extreme rods customers
How long do you usually wait for a custom rod? My son won a custom rod at the Salty Cajun Tournament July 19, 2014. We have called several times and he has asks us to call back in a couple weeks if we have not heard from him. He last stated health issues and to call back in a few weeks. This is not a big deal to me but my son is a seven year old avid fisherman who felt like he had won the lottery. Any suggestions?

Apologies. Trying to get some accomplished. I am having some health issues that really limits what I can do in my shop on rods.

I will not be doing anymore after I finish what I currently have waiting due to these issues.

I have started some different treatments and hope it helps and allows me to get them accomplished.

Jude, Sorry you are having some problems and hope the new treatments get you on the road to feeling better. Besides, there are simply not enough Calcasieu Extreme Rods out there yet!! Take care My friend.

Yes he did! Very nice gesture. He has saved his money ever since and has enough to get a nice reel. I will gladly return the gesture with a fishing trip.

He is looking at the C I 4 shimano spinning reel. Almost $200 but what a great set up. I have heard the calcasieu extreme rods are second to none. He is so excited. The boat is hanging in the lift. I am serious about the trip. I have a lot of free time during the week.
