A MUST HAVE FOR ALL THE KENNEBEC CAN THROW YOUR WAY. KNOWN TO BE ONE OF THE BEST TROUT RIVERS IN MAINE.

NEW 3/2024 ~ 100% ECO-FRIENDLY SOLID NATURAL CORK. NOT ALL CORK IS CREATED EQUAL!!  THE CORK USED FOR THIS ROD IS 100% ECO FRIENDLY!  THE HARVESTING PROCESS OF THESE SPECIAL SLOW GROWTH CORK TREES IS PART OF THE SECRET SAUCE. ALL THAT IS REMOVED IS JUST THE BARK SECTION OF THE TREE WHICH REGENERATES EVERY 9 YEARS, SO IT IS COMPLETELY RENEWABLE. ADDITIONALLY, HARVESTING THE CORK BARK AT REGULAR INTERVALS ALLOWS THE TREE TO LIVE LONGER. REMOVING THE CORK BARK NOT ONLY INCREASES THE TREES LIFESPAN, BUT IT ALSO INCREASES THE AMOUNT OF CO2 IT CAN ABSORB FROM THE AIR BY REVEALING THE FRESH UNDERLYING LAYERS OF THE TREE’S TRUNK AND LOWER BRANCHES. IF THAT WASN’T ENOUGH, THE GLUE WE USE HAS NO SOLVENTS OR HARSH CHEMICALS MAKING OUR GRIPS 100% ECO-FRIENDLY.

POWERED BY PLANTS, OUR EPOXIES FOR THIS ONE REPLACE PETRO-CHEMICALS WITH A RENEWABLE BIOBASED FORMULA.

THE KENNEBEC RIVER IS A 170-MILE-LONG RIVER WHICH RUNS FROM MOOSEHEAD LAKE IN NORTH-CENTRAL MAINE ALL THE WAY THROUGH SKOWHEGAN, AUGUSTA, AND ULTIMATELY DOWN TO THE ATLANTIC OCEAN IN BATH. THE KENNEBEC RIVER IS RANKED AS ONE OF THE BEST TROUT RIVERS IN MAINE. BROOK TROUT IS COMMON IN ITS UPPER SECTIONS BETWEEN AUGUSTA AND MOOSEHEAD LAKE WHILE THE DOWNSTREAM SECTIONS ARE MOSTLY POPULATED BY BROWN AND RAINBOW TROUT.

Great rod. Works well for bass, trout, and even shad.

This is a truly amazing rod. You can tell just by looking at it that it was handmade. It is lighter than most other rods, so this takes time to get used to. I have been catching more fish after adjusting to it's swing weight. Great for rivers and lakes.
