Thank you, Doc and the rest of you guys for the kind words. Sincerely appreciated.

Awesome collection Rise. Your an inspiration to try new and hard to get equipment. I’m glad you got to take your Sedition’s out. I have the same feelings towards the Hooligan. I feel it has excellent clarity in reading the bottom. It’s a deep and has a more hollow tone when bouncing tungsten on roc...

Each time I open this thread I have the same gratifying release of endorphins You have opened a door to a new deminsion and I’ve been reading on these rods. So much so that I didn’t hear the wife say good night because I was in bed with my phone looking at this stuff. needless to say no kiss goodni...

EG also has some outstanding solid tip offerings that I very much enjoy fishing. I won’t go in-depth on that subject right now, as there are so many variables I’d want to touch on, but let’s just say...they all have their strengths, and of course, a few weaknesses here and there. ...... aside from ...

Good to see you posting again bud.

Thank you, brother.

Rarely post here any more, but wanted to mention that I got to spend a few days on the water with the Sedition Hooligan, Cristobal Ltd. and my favorite big bait stick...The Lion Heart. Also got to add hours onto other favorite sticks in the collection. Some that I've had for a while, but havent gott...

Starting a new thread, but wanted to do a quick post in here to mention that I got to spend a few days on the water with the Hooligan, Cristobal Ltd. and my favorite big bait stick...The Lion Heart.

The Hooligan is quite a stout rod, and has a unique taper.
