I've handled the candle apple red series and they're a joke. I don't know about the other rods the make but stay away from that one. Very cheap blank,plastic handle "like toy plastic", and guides were not on the spine.

Very cheap blank,plastic handle "like toy plastic", and guides were not on the spine. I have found it to be a minimum of 200$ to get a rod wrapped correctly. 300$ if you want it built and epoxied correctly.

You would be better off buying the parent company; 13 Fishing Omen rod.

I recently purchased 2 of the No. 8 Blackout rods and really like them. They are built well, light weight and well balanced. Hard to beat for $80.

I bought one and really like it, it feels like a $160 rod not an $80 one. I drug an 8 pounder out of thick brush with it Sunday at Ivie. I will buy some more
