Houston made All Stars is all I fish with. I have acquired bout 40 over the years and they still fish better than any other I’ve tried.
Best worm rod. 6’10”, Fast MH Titanium All Star. You can feel a fly land on the tip.

My original All Star WR1's  Those were some great rods, I still use my Platniums for this... just rebuilt both and put recoil guides on them. Agree - I just retro fitted Winn Grips to the two WR1's I still have. I am surprised those two WR-1's haven't exploded into three pieces on the hookset.  I was the All Star rod rep for NTX for five years and I replaced about 90% of all the WR-1's I sold. I broke two in one day pitching a jig at Fork on fish and this is before braided line! No problems here. I also have a WR2 that I will never let go. I heard Morgan McCain speak at a show a while back & he swears his C843MH is just a newer WR1.
Less gritchin', more fishin'

I've got to say you're one helluva fisherman, Sinkey. Anyone who can smoke 'em on a Falcon Cara has mad skills. I have a very hard time feeling light bites on those rods. Now the Mike McClelland Signature Series flipping stick is sensitive as all get out. Sinkey would win the contest on who uses the longest C-rig leader! I've seen him coil up six feet up line on the back deck then get a running start to the front deck and sling it out!  It was actually closer to 7 feet! It got a lot of bites, no doubt, but I went back to a shorter one when I throw it. I really don't throw a C-rig as much on Fork anymore........found something way more productive! Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
