Interesting that they are rebranding. Is anyone familiar with One 3?

It’s a marketing move is all

I am pretty sure they're still making the Snitch rods as the One 3 or 13 Fishing brand.

Sometimes it makes sense (cents) to be your own competition, other times not. Guess this turned out not

Musta figured out that having two inventories, and two brands to market for wasn't cheap.

No. 8 was a sister company to 13 fishing and they had already started rebranding some of the stuff they had offered last year. The offered the snitch combo under the One 3 brand name and the No. 8 CGI reel was renamed this...

I didn't know they were the same company and am wondering if there was any difference in prices between the brands for the same item.

The products were never quite the same. They change the finish or looks a little.

Pretty much. One brand has the high end to medium, other brand has the medium to low end stuff.
