    Great rods. I’ve got 8s, 9s, and 14s. I use them to cast jigs, vertical jig, pull cranks, spider rig, and longline. They are tough and will take the abuse. You just can’t beat SCR!

    I love my BnM's but with as much positive I've read about the SCR's I think I'll try a few soon...

    He's still in business as of about a month ago and one of the best people I've ever dealt with. The rods I got were the 6' to complete the trolling spread and I'm happy with both the rod and the quality of the build. Time comes for replacing any of what I now have, SCR will be the first place I look.

    They are a lot like fiberglass. That's why I love them. I've had bad luck with graphite for many years.

    He's definitely still in business I just got in a few more last week and I can't say enough about him or his rods.

    To me they are nothing like fiberglass, they are not whippy poles at all.

    Yes, they are Kevlar. Stiffer than fiberglass, not a brittle as graphite. It's perfect material really. The long pole over 10 ft are Kevlar graphite composite becasue of the length. The Kevlar SCR are much more sensitive than fiberglass and has far more backbone as well. People have gotten so used to the stiffness of graphite that they don't realize what they're giving up using other materials. Kevlar and Kevlar/graphite makes a good combo of materials.
