These rods were made when AiRRUS was owned by Ken Whiting (now designer of e21 Carrot Stix). Since then, AiRRUS has been purchased and is under entirely new management. While I believe they still have the Co-Matrix line, their new production rods are very nice. I have a Copperhead Cranking Stix and believe it to be one of the very best rods I've ever fished with.

So I'd say stay away from those old Co-Matrix rods, but definitely check out the Copperhead series.

Hey thanks a lot for the info Kevin! I'll check out the copperheads for sure!

I check 'em out! 170$ is a lot! I'll have to save up a long time if I wanna get one them! Also I see you have a lot of the old citicas, have you used to new ones?
