Special ordering rods

[JWR075]

So I am trying to order the 13 Fishing Omen "A" 6'10" casting rod. However, the only stocking dealers in NC are Gander Mountain and they do not special order anything. Any ideas who will special order this rod for me.

You can email different places to see if they can special order it for you. Matt B at 13 Fishing told me to try Bassmafia or American Legacy. I emailed them about that exact rod due to the other thread

Thanks, hope I can get it soon as the temp in NC will jump to the mid 60's by the middle of next week. Just found out TW will not special order either.

Post what you find out. I haven't inquired about special ordering yet. I still have to wait until I get my tax return to officially do any purchasing.

Will do, just got mine in this morning. Time to do some shopping. I emailed both of those that you listed, just waiting to here.

Just heard back from Bass Mafia Tackle and they said if it is a 13 Fishing rod, they can get it. So now comes pricing and shipping cost. Will post back when I find out.

Here is Matt's (Matt Baldwin 13Fishing) response to an email about ordering one.

"Please give me a few days and I will make sure we add these rods to the
website to be ordered.

That's awesome, I bet between our emails over the past 2 days and if anyone else did the same, he thought that might be a good idea. THey've been really nice to deal with.

Sorry to hijack your thread but what does the A stand for?

[MediumHeavy]

A = Australia. The rod is exclusive to the Aussie market. It's the 6'10" Omen Black spinning blank, but in a casting version for baitcasting finesse applications. It's a bream rod in Australia, apparently.

I first heard about this rod with USA-RET was testing it. Here is his review of the rod.

I see they put one up on the site, but it is listed as a 6' medium-moderate.

[JWR075]

Saw that one also, hopefully the ML will be on there soon.

Here is the description from AU

"A short moderate action casting rod ideally suited to tight cover and accurate casting. Perfect for kayak fisherman or anywhere accuracy is paramount the moderate action of the 60M makes it perfect for fishing a multitude of different reaction baits from hardbodied lures to spinnerbaits. Whether it's bass fishing in structure, or casting lighter lures for mangrove jacks in tight cover, this rod is the ultimate light casting tool."

Here is the info American Legacy

"My rep just got back to me and they do have a limited stock, the price of
the rod is $100 and shipping to you would be $12.95

Let me know if you are interested and I can send a PayPal invoice.

Thanks,
