The name of them is E21 Carrot Stix. I like the way they feel, they are very lite, and comfortable. Just wanted to know if anyone has fished with them, and what they thought. Here is there web site. http://www.carrotstix.com/

WHOSE FISH IS IT?
Re: Any one use these rods?
I have one I really don't like it ..the weight seems off to me ...it feels like I am throwing a hollow stick with string on it .I think it is way the handle is made .But some people really like them the only thing I can say is find someone who has one and cast it a few times and see if you like it .
Watch out for the one who brings a spoon to a knife fight..he is either really stupid or really good with a spoon. <')))><

I dont own one but have had the chance to speak with the people who make them and the guy who designs them at ICAST. I love the way they feel and have been able to use some on my trips for both bass and in the salt. The weight is a big plus especially at the end of the day. I know they were having trouble with breakage right after they started to really hit the market, but all of those problems have been taken care of and in my opinion they are a solid rod. if you do have any issues they will replace it. They are definitely on my short list for my next inshore set up! good luck and let me know what you think.

Re: Any one use these rods?
From what I've heard from some people close to them, they are trying to overhaul some of their quality control issues. Personally, I'm not very fond of the minima reel seats they use on the spinning rods but again that might just be me.
