Anyone used them? Thoughts on how they stack up against Waterloo / Laguna?

I've never heard of that brand, where are you seeing them?

Haven't used them but I live near their storefront in Magnolia and was able to pick up a few of them last week. I believe some of the high end rods are using North Fork composite blanks(which I like a lot). Decent construction and I hear the 3 guys that own it are all too notch, but never met them and haven't cast a rod. Only thing I'd like to see on their higher end rods are the CeRecoil guides but I thought they were decently priced for their top end rod (around $280 I believe).

I ordered their suppressor rod on sale. Should be coming in tomorrow. Seems like a quality rod for $200.

Thanks for sharing, looks like a cool Texas company founded by two veterans. I may buy a suppressor rod while they're on sale.

I am not sure how saltwater fishing focused they are but I have buddy at work who bass fishes more than any one person should and he swears by them.
