If the rod costs that much to built and they are only making a small profit.... that's a horrible business!!! They will b lucky to b n business 5 years from now.
A business of any sort has to make a profit.
And if u really think that a blank cost 200$ Ur iq is smaller then Ur shoe size.
They may sell u the blank for 200$ but they damn sure ain't paid 200$ when WaterPOO bought it.

Since your knowledge is limited, I will tell you that Waterloo uses Batson blanks
use your great computer skills an check it out. If the blank is 200 plus reel seat, grip,
guides, labor they lose $8 a rod.

LMAO.... Specknation,,, you don't have or never used a waterloo...and it only took me 2 post from you to figure that out.... Chris I didn't say they sold Skeletons at Academy they sell castaway...which makes Skeleton...same owner.... So your telling me there Academy junk rods don't reflect on the Skeleton as a whole???? Like I said... Castaway rods are the most returned broken rod to Academy...just call anyone of them and ask.... I talked to the manager over in Lake Charles just BS about some Sand eels I wanted.... And got on the rod subject.... He said they have had more problems with Castaway over the last few years..... And they over took the All Star rod which was the worst

Simple minded people say stupid **** his list is so big and growing to say I never had a Waterloo rods is stupid I am not proud of it just not worth the big price tag. As far as playing with my cows I think I will go check my 300 acres and make sure my 700 head of cows are ok from idiots like you.

So if I carry 10$ in my wallet is that all I have.... Ur a tard. For real man. Y does everything revolve around possession and consumption for u.
I ain't got a damn thing to prove to u. If the o ly thing I did was fish and screw with people from behind the puter I guess I would own 3k n rods so that I had some sence of importance. And so that I can seem like a big shot. Ur about to step into an area u are unfamiliar with. So watch Ur step and bring some supplies..... This may get ugly.

y would you ever want to sling redfish in the boat with any high end rod? that in no way shows rod performance. it will show rod durability however. I have a few waterloo rods and i like them very much but the are not my favorite. They are built on batson blanks in the 40 to 60 dollar price range although they would probably never tell you or anyone else that. I found out the hard way with comparisions on a rod wrack if you know what that is.

because the blank is 40 to 60 dollars in no way means that it is a cheap rod. the manufacturer has to make money somewhere the complete rod price is high because of their good warranty which in most cases is 50 dollar replacement or if found to be a faulty blank free.
