The Advantage Of Choosing A Custom Fishing Rod!

Choosing a custom fishing rod is a personal choice. It can be fun finding a new fishing rod, it can even work to your advantage. Fishing rods come in many sizes that suit many different applications and whatever you get, you will remember how it performed while using it. While finding fishing rods for kids and everyday anglers might be easy. The diehard bass anglers are a completely different story, so much to choose from, whew!

While “off the shelf” fishing rods are good for basically anyone and work just fine. For the avid bass tournament angler, custom rods often become an ending to a search for the perfect fishing rod. Making that personal choice! Getting something specific to the kind of fishing you really do! Sure I can catch fish with an ugly stick but, you can’t feel that “extra sensory power” of a JB custom rod if you only have an ugly stick. Just ask the college bass fishing team from North Carolina this past year, they choose custom fishing rods. The NC bass fishing team uses JB Custom fishing rods, and believe me, they know the difference between them and your average off the shelf rod for bass. The custom bass rods made by John Ballard are well worth the step up when you’re ready. (read more about the college bass win)

Get the length/action you want, get the colors you want and feel more of everything while bass fishing. You can see in the picture below some examples of this years custom line of fishing rods by JB Custom Rods. The looks of your new custom rod are just the beginning, there is so much more that goes into making just the right rod for you and it begins with your inquiry. If you ever wanted more information about a custom fishing rod, John Ballard will give you answers. His fishing rods are top notch and he can build that perfect rod just for you like he did for Guido Hibdon and many other professional bass anglers around the country.

Amazing New Custom Bass Rods

My wife and I returned home from the Fredericksburg outdoor show with some amazing new JB Custom Bass Rods a couple weeks ago. I have since gotten a little play with the two I have and I’m just blown away to say the least.

The first is a 6′9″ Finesse Lite (spinning) I got just for smallmouth on the river.
JB (John Ballard) spent alot of time with me finding just what was going to cover most of my bases and I am more than happy. If you can imagine a 90/10 rod; a super fast tip that loads up and casts the lightest baits with ease, with more than enough backbone to handle anything I will tangle on the river. After what JB showed me with this rod, I really wouldn’t be worried about tangleing with something big, provided my drag is set right and not too tight. I can feel every tap as my bait moves along the bottom and in the recent high water, I found myself setting the hook on a few leaves as they brushed by my bait. I’m still looking for that first smallie of they year to kristen this new rod but, I am more than happy already.

My 2nd JB rod is a 6′9″ Huntin Stik, selected just for buzzbaits. Again, I spent time talking with JB, explaining what I was after and he handed me this sweet rod. Needless to say, I liked it and it too came home with me. Today my new Huntin Stik was paired with a quantum ac500 reel for some “lets fool around” in the yard casting practice. I’m likin’ it alot and still haven’t even seen the water with it yet. This rod has the spiral wrap guides which certainly increase the casting distance (like I was told) and allow the rod to bend the way it is supposed too. I can’t begin to tell you how much I’m jonesen’ to get on the water and sling some buzzbaits around with this new addition to my arsenal.
I may change out the reel at some point but, I just couldn’t wait to throw something around any longer. Come on good weather!

I can suggest to anyone that pays for sensitivity and likes to have top of the line equipment that JB Custom Bass Rods makes an amazing product. Check them out when you find some time, send John an email explaing just exactly what your after and he can do it for you. If you already have a JB Custom Bass Rod and want to share any testimonials or more information about his bass rods; JB has a brand new sponsored forum for just that kind of information found by clicking here.
