Brian I may be the newest Pro Staff now so you're an "old salt"!
Guys I've been fishing Grandt Rods for over two and a half years after a guide friend of mine Capt. Don House ( www.bransonfishingguideservice.com ), yes that's a plug, and Capt. Rick LaPoint introduced me to the company. I purchased nine rods back then and have added several more all BEFORE I became part of the Pro Staff.

I have been sponsored by brand "L", then back in 94 went to brand "A". Now both have their rods manufactured overseas and the quality, in my opinion, has fallen. The Grandt Rods are made in AMERICA, blanks are rolled and the rods are built here in the states. Add that to the 58M Mod entry level rods and 70M Mod pro style rods and you have the best of the best. Many rod manufactures claim a life time warranty however, Grandt Rods truley provides one, life time and unconditional.

Shop around, ask about the rod blanks, graphite mod, READ the warranty and you'll buy Grandt too!

This has been an entirely biased testimony!

Jay,
I would personally endorse you for the prostaff. But you must know that being on the prostaff means that you must work like a Donkey my friend. LOL! ;D
Seriously, Jim and Jacklyn are first class and I love em like family.
Russ Repenning is the head of prostaff and is one of the finest persons I have ever had the experience of knowing.
