BreakAway rods done?
 
I spoke with MikeCC after the trade show he attended and yes he said factory Breakaway rods are finished. Shakespeare has no intention of continueing them.

What about Blanks? - Yes they will still be made.

Mike bought all inventory of factory rods. NO CONVENTIONAL only spin.

He had some other trade show tid bits. New lures etc....

glad I got my 1209 conventional when I did . add on my 7000cl big game and we have the perfect discontinued combo .

Better off with a custom on the same Allstar blanks. More fishable handle lengths and better guide placement and selection on a custom . The Breakaways were excellent factory rods , one of the best but its the blanks that made them so IMO.
