We had some rods we built for the show and now have them taking up space in our racks at the shop (home). We added a page called Rods for Sale and posted up a few pictures along with discounted pricing to see if we can clear up some space.

We also have a few rods for sale over at Baja Fish Gear, if you are in the area and want to check them out. We will have more rods at BFG on Saturday, June 7th for their big sale.  Stop by and say hi if you are out and about.

I have received a couple of calls from people saying that there was not contact info on the site. After arguing with the first person for 15 minutes I decided to check and she was right. Nice to hand out cards at the show to go to our web site then not have any way to get ahold of us.

Shoot me an e-mail if you like to NimCustomRods@hotmail.com or ahern_mj@hotmail.com . Sorry for the confusion. We will get the contact page up shortly.

The first annual West Coast Custom Rod Show was, by all measures, a huge success. We met a lot of nice folks and spent the day explaining and demonstrating the advantages of spiral wrapped rods.

Mark of Acidrod.com fame asked me to assist with his seminar on spiral wraps and I was glad to jump in and add color commentary where I could while “leaning” on my 6455XXH lifting a 20 lb weight off the floor.

The overnight charter the following day was a blast too. We went out on the Pacific Star searching for YT and WSB’s. We were only able to get into calicos, but they were to 6 lbs and a lot of fun.

We have a few rods left over from the group we built for the show and will be putting them up on the site soon for sale at discounted prices.

We have been working hard to get all the rods we planned to build ready for the First Annual  - West Coast Custom Rod Show in Costa Mesa. We have the finishing touches going on the last few of the 40 rods we built for the show. We will have 14 8-9 foot ultra light trout rods in various colors, 2 sets of 8 foot Rainshadow rods (15, 20, 30 lb), a 4 rod set of Rainshadow 7 foot rods ( 15, 20, 25, 30 lb) as well as a few deck hand style Forecast jig sticks.

The show is Saturday May 3rd at the Orange County Fair and Exposition Center from 9 am to 5 pm. There will be representatives from most of the major component manufacturers as well as tackle shops and other builders. We look forward to seeing you there.
