    George's custom Rods

    Oi, George!

    i see one of the movers and shakers is useing your custom rods in the BREAM Series this year !
    (i knew i wasn't the only one. hehehehe )

    was reading a QFM last night and your rods were mentioned as being used by one of the Boaters who has already got into the Final.

    now i suppose this means i'll have to wait longer for my new rods you being a noted Rod builder an all...

    for those who do not know,
    Big George builds some of the finest custom rods in Aussie,thay are fished by a lot of Barra men up the north,(and a lot down south as well ).

    not only Barra/Tropical rods but a full range of Rods for all applactions/styles/fishing,basicly anything you want

    George keeps quite about his skills but has a big following amongst the sportsfishing crew.

    there are a few of us here on Ausfish that already use his great product/service.

    nice to have an accomplished rod craftsman on the board,once again George it's good to see you getting in print for your great work.
    Hookin,Brett
    (and yes i pay full noise for his rods Happily ! )

    Thanks brett.
    ya , Nige Webster landed the largest bream of the ABT thus far on one of my SP. 6'6" bream sticks(2-3 kg).1.88 kg.Nice bream hay.I feel the blanks that i'm importing are every bit as good Loomis and Strudwick if not better with a $100 less price tag.
    Building 2 bream sticks at the moment.one is for William(blisters) my 10 year old son.Flash rod.Matalic blue binds/blue guilds ,butt deco to make pricilla queen of the desert green with envy. ;The other's for a chap fishing with John Bethune in a few weeks.D

    I`m another who has discovered the genius of George and his custom sticks. Quite simply the best around and fairly priced to boot.

    George is getting a good looking at around most angling circles.

    Rob, I dont think Big_Boy will mind me letting you know that he is currently at Jupiters casino trying his best to send them out of business, so dont think he is not interested if he doesnt contact you straight away.

    PS. Crisco, does this get me a discount
