You could come out here to the Pacific Northwest and quite readily get strong opinions within the salmon and steelhead fishing community about Lamiglas rods made during much of Todd’s 19 year tenure there as production manager (I’m calculating the years correctly as Mudhole’s announcement of hiring him is still online). I have Lamiglas rods from before, during, and after that time period. Edited 2 time(s). Last edit at 07/31/2021 11:59PM by Kendall Cikanek. Re: Spinnerbait Rod Preferences (Bass applications)

Wow ..... . I think we need a touch of reality here. While some may prefer using American made rod blanks, it does not mean that they are higher quality products than those built overseas. It may be a point of pride, but it's not a point of quality. And there are certainly quality issues at NFC. Just like there are quality issues at overseas manufactures.
