Prices increasing (mine) 2023

#1

Post by RWHoffhines »

I have not increased my price since 2006.

The increases in just...rod tubes alone have made a significant increase simply unavoidable. Starting Jan 1, 2023 my prices for standard, two-tip rods with bag and tube will increase to:

$1550 2 Piece
$1650 3 Piece

Quad, pent or hex.

Any one who has a pending order, not to worry as we discussed ($1295) and I'll offer the same to inquiries before the New Year.

Rob, that's a heck of a deal for your quality of work! Your rods are excellent models of craftsmanship.

I have two of Rob's builds and looking forward to another in the spring. As Cris alluded, his rods are very much undervalued -- the cosmetics and quality of craftsmanship are impeccable and when you cast one of his rods, you notice right away that he is a true student of tapers. Rob's announcement is long overdue and his rods are still one of best deals out there.

Still a bargain! Rob is a fantastic caster which really makes a difference when evaluating tapers. Those that got rods at the old price, good on you :)

Yesterday, I searched around for about 30 minutes, and I couldn't find anything. No website, no email.

Rob does not have a website, you're best off contacting him here via PM.

what Gerard said, just PM me herein.

I've have 7 people offer to put up a website for me (some of them close friends) and every one has fallen through. I'm as tech savvy as a bag of dirt.

I hate typing so I'll just say "ditto!"

Rob's tapers/rod work are some of the best around and one of my favorite rods says so...

Was just chatting with Rob via IM about my upcoming rod, so of course I start thinking about his builds I've enjoyed so much the past couple of seasons (and thank you, thegubster!)
