C_R_TX Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 Does anyone have a custom rod that isn't an LDC? I'm considering wrapping my own blank but before I do that I wanted to ask if anyone knew of other good custom swimbait rod builders. Pics and info appreciated! Hunter Hey Hunter, with you being a North Texas guy, there is a rod maker out of ATX- "Fish Hazard Rods". SeanM put me in contact with him, and I have been very happy with the two rods he made.

vcbassfishing Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 I build swimbait rods also... I think it's funny that the first thing that everybody thinks of when custom swimbait rods get mentioned is ldc hahaha. I have one that I have had for a long time and it's nice but it's just funny to me. BigSlant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoopdaloop Posted October 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 (edited) So if I wanted this rod to mainly handle deps 250, 9" HPH gizzard.... maybe some heavy top water here and there. What blank would y'all recommend? I did speak with VCBassfishing... his work looks solid. I just really have an itch to build a rod!

Tuna Meltdown Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 I just had Mr. Swimbo build me a Moam custom. The whole build process was awesome. Good price, good communication, and he was well ahead of his 12 week completion estimate. It's in the mail now and I can't wait to use it before my season here in the northeast is over. daminator, JeremyW, biggfeast and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
