Default My new camo rod and the "Together for Tipper" rod
Sorry it took me so long to get pics up but I was out of town last weekend and have actually been some sort of busy this week, believe it or not lol. Here's some pics of my camo rod and the rod that Billy donated to auction off for the "Together for Tipper" fundraiser...

This may be a weird question but why are the eyes not inline?

Default Spiral styx
The eyes are wraped on the rod to spiral the line to the underside of the rod at the tip which reduces the torque when fighting a big fish.
I'LL LET THE MAKER (BILLY STYX) EXPLAIN IT FURTHER.

If you buy a Stix rod, get the 7 ft. rod. That thing can chunk a light weight lure way way out there.
And they look good too.
