While the company was transitioning to its new leadership, this page was temporarily pulled down to confirm the information was up to date and current. The following, stands true as of 3/21/24.
Baitrunner Reel - These are done and will be shipped to our warehouse in the next few weeks. Once they arrive, we will begin shipping them out.
2022 Deposit Program Rods -
Last week, I attempted to have a series of meetings with the rod builder here in the states regarding the status of the remaining rods to be built. The last update I had been given, which was shared with everyone who took part had them roughly 60% completed - with the surf rods being the last to be done. After directly speaking with the builder, the information I was given was false. The rods were never started on Jan 6th like I was led to believe, and they are now backlogged and unable to start our order. To add to the disappointment with these, the blanks for the Musky, Surf and Glass rods have not been started either, which I was under the impression were completed.
I have recalled the blanks from that builder, and I am in contact with another here in Texas who has agreed to take on the job for the MP series and the Walleye Series. He expects that once everything arrives, which should be in the next 2 weeks, that he will be able to finish them out in approximately 6-8 weeks. For these two series, it is now looking like the end of May into early June.
For the remaining series, production will be starting in the next few weeks with our main rod Manufacturer and will have an approximate 100-day lead time to be complete. That means the earliest I can expect to have these completed will be July, and with transport from there, they will likely not arrive until August.
Texas Spinning Reel - We are working on a final update for these now. Those who took part in the program will receive an email announcement on this project once the final update is complete. This section will also be updated at that time
Sincerely,
The Sixgill Fishing Family
