Due to high cork prices & customer requests for lower pricing, we are proud to introduce the green freindly Cob rod, after you catch your fish you have an idea for a side dish! :D

Thanks CG., it takes some prep work to make it hold up to the elements, but whats neat the cob already has a pre-made hole!

I sent a copy of this post to our old rod-building buddy Ed. I think you'll probably hear from him!!!:D:D

Yes I did hear from ED, thanks SM. The darn thing fells good in hand, I'll try it out at the heated dock this winter.

What is the life expectacy of the cob handle. I know as a kid I had a cob pipe that lasted long enough form mom to catch me smoking. That was a couple of years.! looks like it has a polimer coating.

Foul hook; Yes it does, thats what I meant by prep work, had to rasp off the fuzz down to the solid part then prime coat it with urathane, then sand off the rough O.D. after mounting it I coated it with rod coat, it should last for years.
