I use the trout killer and red tamers for whites and hybrids. Good feel and sensitivity. Dont know about the supreme series but I'd buy more.

wow, that's like $25 a rod after shipping... i haven't used them before but i went ahead and did an order and if i don't like them they will be used as gifts.... that in my book is a Win/Win situation...

You'd be crazy not to jump on this. Good rods for throwing light plastics--I have 3 already but just got 4 more.

received my rods yesterday, very nice finish and good action on the rods... they are IM7 blanks with Fuji ceramic guides and Fuji seats... i like that the show measurements for shortest and longest redfish and trout on the rod for when you are wade fishing. on the redfish tamer rods i wish the pole had a little more back bone at the base and a faster tip but that is a small issue... overall i would say for 25$ a rod shipped this is great price for the quality of rod you get.

I just recieved my rods. they look and feel good. I am thinking they will be used for throwing smaller plastics on jigheads upto 3/8-5/8 ( should be great for cocahoes).
I called the shop, they have been swamped with orders and are out of some of the rods. The lady said call in and they would try to accomadate as many anglers as they could.

call them at 800 460 3227, they are out of some rods , but if they have what you need, they will make up a deal for you. This is what they told me when I called for a friend last week.
I've used the rods on two trips, I like'em for the price. MO
