y would you ever want to sling redfish in the boat with any high end rod? that in no way shows rod performance. it will show rod durability however. I have a few waterloo rods and i like them very much but the are not my favorite. They are built on batson blanks in the 40 to 60 dollar price range although they would probably never tell you or anyone else that. I found out the hard way with comparisions on a rod wrack if you know what that is.

because the blank is 40 to 60 dollars in no way means that it is a cheap rod. the manufacturer has to make money somewhere the complete rod price is high because of their good warranty which in most cases is 50 dollar replacement or if found to be a faulty blank free.

They make several types.of rods and the new Hp Slam is a new blank that just came out the last few months....and I promise you they are not using a 60 blank on a HP slam Mag.... The Hp Lights Blank coast about 60 or so..... But the Mag Blanks are closer to 200 than 100

so what is their retail price for this "new" hp slam mag?

the new blanks with the 3m resin from north fork composites are only 120 and they are the highest line blanks out right now they are used on the kistler zbone.
for waterloo to sell a rod built on a 200 dollar blank the price would have to be upwards of 400 dollars. if any less and they warranty it once they lose money think about it.

Dude the st. Coix blanks are over 100 ..... There are several blanks that are over 100 bucks and there. Is one made by One of the custom rod makers in Texas that just the Blank was over 300 the rod cost 650 to 750... Can remember the name off hand but they were at the boat show

Since your knowledge is limited, I will tell you that Waterloo uses Batson blanks
use your great computer skills an check it out. If the blank is 200 plus reel seat, grip,
guides, labor they lose $8 a rod.

LMAO.... Specknation,,, you don't have or never used a waterloo...and it only took me 2 post from you to figure that out.... Chris I didn't say they sold Skeletons at Academy they sell castaway...which makes Skeleton...same owner.... So your telling me there Academy junk rods don't reflect on the Skeleton as a whole???? Like I said... Castaway rods are the most returned broken rod to Academy...just call anyone of them and ask.... I talked to the manager over in Lake Charles just BS about some Sand eels I wanted.... And got on the rod subject.... He said they have had more problems with Castaway over the last few years..... And they over took the All Star rod which was the worst

Simple minded people say stupid **** his list is so big and growing to say I never had a Waterloo rods is stupid I am not proud of it just not worth the big price tag. As far as playing with my cows I think I will go check my 300 acres and make sure my 700 head of cows are ok from idiots like you.
