Macspredshack Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 Yes Gary, a quality product indeed! That I suspect is the reason for their early demise. They were a tad expensive in relation to other manufactures, and the public have decided the they are too expensive...effectively pricing themselves off the North American market. Too much like a Cadillac or a Rolls Royce for the average angler, price wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB Posted January 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 that is a sham.i did hear they were thinking of making there rods and reels in china.if that is true i will not order from them if they do start manufacturing again. my best spinning reel was an Ahab made by them.its about 7 years old and cost about 100 back then.but its solid as a rock and i fish 3 or 4 times a week .its the best reel i ever owned. i have try'd calling them a few times last year.but just get the run around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
