The owner is a marketing genius talked to him at Classic...I'm sold buying only favorite for me and son... How is he a marketing genius? His price points are actually way higher than some other rod manufacturers that have a way better name in the industry. If he was a great marketer, most people would have heard of him by now. Ive never heard of his rods, or him personally.

Flying off the shelves huh? I'm pretty sure their $350 no handle rod would fly out of my hands. The "pro" (allegedly) staffer working the booth said "they are so light they might float." Probably not the smartest thing he's ever said.

I guess I don't understand the hatred that has been spewed towards Lunkers here recently. I've never met the man but have watched and enjoyed a lot of his videos. He served his country and I've even heard a few stories here about some good deeds people have witnessed him do. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion it just makes me wonder if this is something personal, something I'm not picking up on or am unaware of, jealousy or what the deal is. Just curious...why the venom? Go back and search the post that was locked back in July of 2016. Maybe then you'll understand.

Well I read some of the thread and stopped because it gave me tired head and I couldn't read anymore. If that thread is the reason for the venom....still don't get it...one guys interaction with him....didn't wave and the other guy in the boat threw a lure at his boat.....some folks need to get a life

(Im not knocking the company, just curious) I keep reading about their marketing being off the chain, but cant find a retailer that sells them anywhere, and they were at ICAST in '16. So that's plenty of time to have dealers.
