american rodsmiths
 

Anyone else fish with them?

Yes....I have two of them.....not bad rods for the price!

I've got 3-4 of them, pre-China.

Looked at them, never fished them. They have a 50 dollar one at academy split grip. Didn't know if it was worth it or not

I had a couple I really liked them but they all broke on setting the hook...not bad priced but without a return policy I ain't touching 'em

same here.I live about 2 miles from thier shop.Got 2 H3's and 2 troutmaster lites.

Fool I have two just like you described......to me they are good for the money. I do not mind spending money on reels (I have 3 Curados) but I hate to spend a lot of money on rods!

I've had 2 of them brake while setting the hook also wasn't a fan after that but love my falcon. I'm now trying to talk myself into a billystix but hard to do during hunting season. It'll probably have to wait till after the first of the year possibly tax time and then maybe I can get two.

Get your self a billy stix and be done with dat. There kinda expensive,but well worth the money.

Never had that happen to my two. I have been having them for over a year. However, I am not one of those that does a hook set that if I miss I will fly out of the boat.

I am one of those that will fly out of the boat if I miss and I have broken one of these rods. I set the hook hard especially bass fishing. I broke this rod fishing a spro frog over some matted grass. Bass blew up and sucked the frog into the slop and I hammered the hook. The rod didn't like the additional weight and broke in half 3/4 of the way up the blank. For 50 bucks I think they are a good deal as long as your local academy will honor the warranty.

I'll look into one another time LC academy does honor the warranty majority of the time. LCT is better on warranty though

wow i need to learn how to read, I thought I read all star rods, as far as american rodsmith i have one like fool mentioned and I love it haven't broke it yet lol sorry. Its very comfortable, very well priced, it is second only to my falcon as of now but still want a stix.

i have one of the pro set trout specials and it has been a pretty good rod. no complaints here

i use them. I love them. Had one break on me and the only reason it broke is that i stepped on it. They are some of the strongest rods i have seen on the market. I have had so many problems with Falcons i would never buy another. Just me though. All my rods go through a lot of wear and tear throughout the year and they all have held up well. Action is a tad heavier, all rods i used in the past we meadium action and with Ar's i go with meadium light. They are very sensitive rods also. I use troutmaster lites. and all my client rods are limit stixs.

My brother in law has some Am. Rodsmith rods. They are pretty nice.

As for the Billy Stix rods, they are not expensive compared to most custom rods.
They look like you want them to look like, and they are built like you want them built.
They are not off the shelf, take what they give you rods.

I fish with A.D's Custom rods. Best rod i own, I got it wrapped, and it fit a 13 yr old budget! other than than i have castaways. But i'll prolly check out the American Rodsmith

It's by far the best looking rod you own!!!!:D

I fish Allstar rods and love em but I will be getting a billystix soon. 2 if I can win one at Petes in a couple of weeks.

5 if I can win one at Pete's.

i love me some american rodsmiths i got 3 of em 2 split grips and one regular...them and castaway is all i use..

I've got a couple.
