About Carbon X™ Fishing Rods
| Carbon X™ rods began in 2007 when Company Founder David Gray started a project to build a high performance fishing rod. The goal was to build a rod that anglers would proclaim delivers better fishing performance and is a better fishing tool.
David decided to combine his many years of experience in the fishing tackle industry along with the knowledge of many anglers across North America including BASS Elite anglers and FLW Outdoors Pro Anglers in pursuit of increased rod performance. David is not only the founder of the Ardent Reel Company, he also developed and patented the Ardent XS casting reel that Alton Jones used to win the Bassmasters Classic. That reel, the Ardent XS, was the first totally new reel developed and built in the USA in many years. David founded Carbon X™ rods with a similar goal, to raise the bar of performance on fishing rods and manufacture them in the USA. In 2007 David began to develop the concepts and ideas for what would become Carbon X™ fishing rods. Our rod models are developed one at a time and are as individual as the fishing techniques and fishing tasks for which they are designed. We are a limited production company building all of our rods in the USA. |
We have recently increased production to keep pace with demand as more anglers find out about the performance of Carbon X™ rods. We are increasing development work on new rods that we have been asked to make. We always welcome your input on what kind of rod and rod performance you want. We are as passionate about building a true high performance rod as we are about our fishing. Our goal is to build a better rod that is truly a better fishing tool.
Each rod model developed is extensively fished all over North America before it is released to full production. We test, test, test every rod model under actual fishing conditions using it where and how our customers fish. This is our final performance quality test and is our assurance that we are offering you a rod model that is a better fishing tool. We are appreciative of the many compliments our rods have received from anglers in Alaska, Canada, and across the lower 48. We welcome our customers' input and are always glad to hear from our fishing friends. Let us know what rods and rod performance you would like us to build for you. Thanks, |
