"I just received my F5 custom 808H rod today! It is everything I expected and more! I haven't had a rod that performed so well as this one does! It loads up great and casts with distance and ease, which will really help with an old nagging rotator cuff tear I have. The build experience I had with Brad, the builder, was second to none. He was in contact throughout the entire process from concept to delivery, sending messages as well as pictures and videos of the build! I will definitely be getting all my rods from F5 customs! What started as a business relationship based on recommendations from fellow anglers has grown into a friendship as I have complete respect for Brad as a builder, businessman, and a professional! Thanks again for putting this "Weapon of Bass destruction" in my hands!"
