Volfan Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 Ben's good on communication. I've been waiting on my two since May. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waynem Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 Ben makes an excellent rod at a very fair price. Because of that he has a big backlog. If you are looking for a rod to use next spring, now is the time to get your order placed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pozerzsuk Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 Just curious , I have tried searching for it , maybe someone can answer this for me. I noticed a few pics of these rods and an ad in the black market , and the eyes are not straight . I know this is done for a reason , just wondering what the reason is.

Big Poppa Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 I found that Spiral wraps are also great for better hook sets when the bait is right under the boat, well with jigs anyway. I havent gotten my hands on a spiral wrapped swimbait rod yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pozerzsuk Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Love this forum. Thanks for the great info, so by reducing line slap I'm guessing they increase casting distance too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
