American Tackle Update...

From all of us at American Tackle, we would like to thank all of the custom rod builders that visit this forum and beyond. It is because of all of you that the microwave guides have become a product that the entire fishing industry is embracing. Without you and your confidence in this revolutionary product, we would not be where we are today. The best anglers in the world are now using this incredible development in guide technology. It is quickly becoming the standard in the industry with 21 out of 30 rods in the best new products showcase at ICAST using MicroWave guide systems.

For those that do not know, Bassmaster Elite angler and 2 time Bassmaster Angler of the Year, Aaron Martens just completed the most dominant Elite series season in history while securing his 3rd Angler of the Year Title. Aaron uses Microwave guides exclusively on ALL of his rods!! Aaron’s Edge by Enigma Rod company features MicroWave casting and spinning guides on all 16 models designed by Aaron himself. Aaron ended a 17 year relationship with Megabass to develop his own line of rods featuring none other than the microwave guides. This truly means that award winning guides, make award winning rods AND are used by the Worlds best anglers!

We would also like to mention that the #1 Ranked Bass Angler in the world by Bassfan, FLW Tour Pro Bryan Thrift fished with the Microwave guides on his Fitzgerald Rods throughout his entire season. Bryan Thrift placed 6th in the Forrest Wood Cup and won the FLW Tour event at Lake Eufaula. Bryan plans on using these guides on ALL of his future series of rods.

Not only did Bryan have a great year with the Microwaves and Fitzgerald Rods, but owner and rod designer of Fitzgerald rods, Trevor Fitzgerald, landed the largest Bass this year on the FLW Tour. This fish landed with his Stunner HD series equipped with the microwave casting guides weighed 12.10lbs!!! Trevor has a very good chance in qualifying for the Bassmaster Elites for 2016.

The success and acceptance worldwide for the microwave guides all started right here on this forum and we would like to say THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR SUPPORT!!!

And thank you American Tackle for letting custom builders use it. Now we have the ability to say to a customer "look these are the guides that are used on the Pro's rod". now they too can have the same components. A huge selling point!
