On my first trip out it quickly became apparent that the X-Series was a well balanced and engineered rod. I found it handled the 1kg bream I caught on the flats with little effort. The forgiving sensitive tip compensates for those last minute runs from fish near the boat, yet when loading the rod up further, the bottom end of the rod dug in and turned the fish quickly back towards the waiting net.

They arrived today mate, all good and VERY happy. Without a doubt these are by far my favourite in the quiver, the X721 feels beyond amazing! IT’S SO LIGHT IN THE HAND! How this thing is packing 2-5kg of power when it feels like such a finesse rod is amazing! It’s unheard of! This is MY ultimate rod and by far my favourite rod I’ve ever owned now! Once again Steve you’ve definitely delivered on all my expectations and will continue to happily recommended you to anyone! Adam Goncalves - Sydney, NSW

Being a diehard fisherman for nearly forty years, I’ve been fortunate enough to have fished in different locations around the world and to have owned a lot of gear. The quality and craftsmanship of Steve’s custom rods is second to none, the care and attention to detail sets his work apart. If you’re looking for a custom rod, then do yourself a favour and talk to Steve. Todd Rechner – Melbourne, VIC

Steve, thanks for providing me with the best rods on the market for my tournament fishing. They played a major part in my win at the ABT Lake Glenbawn Bass Pro, in a large field on a super tough bite. The sensitivity of the blank/recoils and minima reel seat allowed me to feel the slightest inquiries even in 90ft of water. Simply the best, thank you. Gregg Flett - Newcastle, NSW
