Treasure Island Custom Rods

Day 2 of the Bassmaster Elite tournament on Lake Murray is over. I was fortunate to draw Jordan Lee. Jordan Lee He had an EPIC day with a bag over 26 lbs and big fish so far at 7lbs 7 oz. I learned a few things today but what impressed me the most is how considerate he was toward other anglers and not just the Elites but the locals fishing. He’d ask if it was OK to fish in the same spot. He also put his FFS on a unit at the helm so I could see what he was seeing! Way cool!

Had the pleasure of being the BASS Ambassador with Bryan New Fishing. Heck of a fisherman! If you ever get a chance to be an Ambassador I highly recommend. You will get an appreciation of why these guys are so good!

20lbs 10oz was good enough for 25th to get started on Murray. Hope to do it again tomorrow. Ryder said daddy catch big fish so I’m going to try!

I know some of my posts lately haven’t been custom rod related but, very fortunate to be spending some downtime in Hawaii on the Garden Island of Kauai! It is spectacular! Everyday is rinse and repeat weather. Right now the best waves on the island are right where we are staying. It’s cool to watch them!

It’s not often that I provide feedback on rod building products. However, I finally got around to using some NextLevel Halftime epoxy from Get Bit Outdoors. It is a great product that speeds up the process. I wanted to finish a couple of grips and had to recreate the tip section of a 3-piece travel rod that had been turned into a 4-piece rod. LOL! I was able to wrap and put two coats of finish on the tip section in one day with flawless results and ship out the next day! Put two coats on and no micro bubbles and leveled perfectly! I will definitely be using this product more! It is a bit thicker to put on but seems to thin out as you put it on. Get Bit Outdoors

I only had two hours today to field test in the Midlands Striper Club April Tournament on Lake Murray. I pulled up on my spot and was able to catch 2 of the right kind, aka good ones and ended up placing third! Let’s go Team Glitter Rocket!! First time placing in the top 3 in 3 years of fishing these tournaments. We’ve had a couple to top 4 finishes but never cashed a check until today! My custom made Striper Rod did the trick in a weighted free line. You should see how the herring makes that tip dance!

Out doing a little field testing on Lake Murray this morning. Fishing was pretty good with another lost count morning. Fished by myself and had 4 doubles. Caught some nice fish but lost the biggest ( of course I did!). LOL!
