    Rods Revamped

    How many fishermen or women remember All Star rods the ones from the 80's they had Houston, TX stamped on them. Those things were great right they would last forever. I even know some buddies who still have some and fish with them from time to time.

    Now what if I told you the man responsible for those rods has started a new company but has stuck to the same designs as those old All Star rods that you loved. I had been searching my next rod perches to accommodate my Shimano Curado when I stubbled across this McCain Hi-Performance Home. Well once I saw that I knew where my next worm rod was going to be coming from. Only one thing I can't find a dealer. My question to everyone is who knows where I can get my hands on one of these?

    I'd say go pay your money to be a board sponsor on this sight and then come back and peddle your wares. Oh, and welcome to the BBC, very glad you joined us!

    Well I would think you could contact them on that website you linked. But I'm guessing you already knew that.

    Since your post looks to be a ad for them, and you link the website, I'll ask the obvious.

    Have you called them and ask for their dealers?? Seems pretty straight forward.

    Welcome to BBC Scott. The folks on this forum are pretty sharp, experienced fisher-people. If you are going to pimp a product on here, on honest approach will work best. The old, cheesy, "How many remember.....now, what if I told you" routine has been worn out for a long time and these folks will eat you alive if you think that you are going to win them over with that nonsense.

    How many do you want, I can ship them to you for 299.95 each plus 40.00 shipping per rod.

    Yeah. There are never any "remember the old days when..." posts on this site.

    Buy an Ugly Stick. They last forever too and are way cheaper.
