Scheels Outfitter Rods

Anyone use the new line of Scheels muskie rods? Sounds like they are made by the same company overseas that Fenwick uses. Same guides, seats, cork, blanks, etc. Sounds like a good warranty...if they break, bring them in and you'll get a new rod for as long as you own it. Any users out there?

AS long as they don't break on a fish of a lifetime......looked at them the other day, look pretty good, now that I hear Fenwick though I would have to try one to tell.Never been a fan of their heavier rods. Just personal opinion, no real long term use to back it up.

I have a scheels bulldawg rod. cost me like $100. It is a decent rod but at 8ft it only has 9 guides. lifetime warrenty.. step on it, smash it in the car door, break it over your knee, warrenty. Just take it back and get a new one.

[PoorWordUsage] good for the money. I own one and have used it often and landed some fish on it too! My first yesterday a 43". I actually work at scheels in mankato, and really do like the rod, its def not a St. Croix Legend tournement but for 100 bucks u cant go wrong. i love it.

they are just like a gander rod in my opinion made by one of the big name rod makers but not a bad rod for the money thats for sure. Beats $300+ for a St Croix

I picked up the rod and a Revo 60 last night. Taking it out to Mille Lacs tomorrow to try the combo out. Hope all goes well. One associate tells me it's made by Fenwick, the other says its a no namer. Hmmmmmmm. Ohhh well. As long as it catches fish, I'm happy!

So what was the outcome? Good rod? Any fish?

Rod has held up good as well as the Toro. Nice being able to throw Cowgirls for several hours without hurting or hearing your reel whine. So far no problems!
