No thanks. Plenty of others at any of their price points that I enjoy better.

I still have my origionals from their first year of production as well as a few gold series and the wild series and I love them all. No complaints here.
What did one bass say to the other???...I'd hit that

I recently purchased a carrot stick- planned to use it for jigs at falcon.. The first bite/hook set with the new rod resulted in the rod breaking in three pieces.. when it broke, it sounded like a shotgun firing.. I did land the fish, a 10.12 lb, but it was just luck to do so with a rod broken in two different places. I took the rod back to ACADEMY and was able to swap it for a Bucoo.. I won't buy another carrot stick

I heard that Cabelas changed their return policy because too many carrot sticks were coming back broken. I don't know if thats true though.
But...I have known several guys who have tried the rods and hated them. More than a few have broken. I personally don't like them at all.

I bought one year ago and the 3rd time I set the hook the rod tip broke. I wouldn't buy one.

Not a fan of them now, there are better options out there for the money.

Very light, extremely sensitive, prone to breaking and NO Customer Support when it does!
