Really??? They're not made in the USA??

That's kinda depressing to know as it was one of the reasons that I
perferred them. Just bought an IM10X worm rod last weekend.

My Allstar rods were made in China, not bad rods either..
Anyone know who made the last USA made bass sized baitcasting reel?

The Allstar rods I have are made in China, most are made in the
USA...Mine are Wally World specials, but I haven't broken and returned
them like someone we all know..

I was curious, so I checked a couple of mine. One says made in the USA and
the other says Houston, TX/

Just checked mine too. The Classic WR1 says "Made in the USA", and the other
just says Houston TX.

Not to burst your bubble, but all the manufacturer has to do is assemble
them in the US to be able to put a Made in the USA label on the product.
They can still be composed entirely of foreign made components.

Pop!

Oh well... at least I'm getting a Huber rod that I can be sure was made in
the USA. Right?

Blank made right here in Wisconsin. Unfortunately, I like Fuji guides and
reel seats, but I do what I can to keep the $$$ right here in the US of A.

That's fine with me! I was planning on the Fuji's, and knew they were made
way over yonder somewhere.

That was the SiC guides... right? LOL
