Hey guys, my brother is looking to get a used custom rod to join us on the rail this year. He can't afford much, something at or below $100 in good condition for him to start on. Fast action and prefer an 8 ft. Let me know if you can help gentlemen and see ya on the rail.
If you go just a little bit above that myself or John could build you a basic 8ft black rack custom rod.
Basic king rods are $145,we have around 50 left.

rocks reef has some good rods and you pay like $75 for one. just watch for air bubbles in the epoxy.

Air bubbles large enough to affect the performance of a rod would be the sign of crappy assembly and someone worried about quantity and not quality.

that's where I got 2 of mine that I use....on our way out of town one year.....they are sporadic on times open as I recall....then picked up a couple a few years later, 1 from Obie....very nice.....the other from Pensacola pier regular
even like medium size air bubbles. overtime the epoxy will crack and you will have to repair it.
