Location: Chicago | I am thinking about buying a Fig Rig jerk bait rod. I have not heard very much about this rod. Does anyone use Fig Rig rods? Are they compariable to St Croix or G-Loomis? Any positive or negative feedback about the rod or manufacturer?
Any information is appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave K |

Simpley my opninion here, I am not sponsored by Fig-Rig.
I have been using their musky line of rods for past 2 seasons with great success. Extremely well balanced light weight rods with near flawless action.
Their new 2003 lineup offers a newer blank that is even lighter weight. I would rank these with the best custom rods you could have made at Thornes on Sage blanks if not even better.
For my money there is not a better rod built, I have sold most of my St. Croix's, I just didn't want to use them once I had the Fig's. I have never used a G.Loomis so I can't give you a comparison there.
Great rods, backed by lifetime warranty, try one you won't be sorry.

| I bought a Fig Rig rod at the Chicago Muskie Show. I have only used a couple times so far, but this is what I can tell you. It will be the first rod I reach for when I decide to go muskie fishing. I was quite impressed with the gentlemen that makes them, seeing as how he spent about a half hour with me describing how he makes them and how to use them to get the best possible action from his rods. Bottom line, I dont think you will be sorry for buying one. Also, I get know endorsement fees, nor am I sponsored by Fig Rig Rods.

Location: Stevens Point, Wi. | Used two all last year and loved them. Am planning on picking up one or two more this year. Extremely light weight and great action. More than comparible to the 1/2 dozen St.Croix's I have. No, I don't have anything to do with the company, just a great product. |
