Bill states that anyone with a bit of money can get into the rod business.
In the recent article in Fly Fish America about rods costing less than
$300,
there are 42 companies listed that offer rods in this price range.

Have you heard of , or seen, these lines of rods?
Albright
Biscayne
Cam Sigler
Castle Arms
etc

I (and many of my friends) own Castle Arms rods (sold under the name
Heritage Rods). Very nice imported rods. The owner of Castle Arms (Phil
Castleman) is a member of my TU Chapter.
