Seen them on the net and in the new Mudhole catalog. I'm very intrigued and will probably order a set to give them a try. Has anybody given them a shot yet? Would love to hear any reviews on appearance/performance from anyone who already has.

Just got in a bunch of popping rod blanks.They are real straight and great looking blanks. I will start to build them this week. They should make some beautiful looking rods. I don't think the handles will be available until January.

I'm working on a 6'6" spinning model. Very light and crisp. Surprisingly nice blank for the money.
