Who made these rods?!?!

[C P]

I bought these from a gentleman on here back in 2012 when I was on leave from Afghanistan. I have since lost the messages and can't remember who made them. There is no markings on them.

Any ideas?

[RyanW]

No idea but they did a fantastic job!

[Ice Scratcher]

Really cool work..

Check with PTO outfitters in Fort Wayne, seems as though they were selling those.  I remember seeing them, and  I thought they were from That area.  Hope this helps and thanks for your service.

Dang sure wish I could remember.

I had one made similar to the one on the right and if I remember right he was in the Plainwell area. He even delivered it to me up north. That cost me a location of where I got some fish but it was worth it

You mean Rippin lips out of Otsego? Talked to him the other day - sounded like hes not doing many rods any more. Definitely looks like it could be his work though.

That who it ws. I could not remember his name. Thanks

[cnewby]

Yeah, those are definitely his work. I have a few - they are top-notch.

He got blackballed on here a while back, no clue why.  PM me if you want/need to get in contact with him, I know he is still making some rods.

Looks like a Norm Teal rod.

Think you might be right, that name sounds familiar.

If you have a Facebook page you may be able to find the person that way with a picture or two attached. Facebook can be helpful for something like that. Some did a fantastic job on those!
