Welcome to a new S-B Sponsor, John Freeze a/k/a Thumb-Burner and Anyfish Anywhere USA! Here is their web site: http://www.anyfishanywhereusa.com/

John has been a S-B member for 3 years (and for a while cornered the market on the classifieds section

)

Anyfish Anywhere is a UK company that delivers high quality long distance FISHING rods and gear. Anyfish Anywhere USA is their way to bring these tools here to the US Surfcasters.

"We believe our products offer the best value in the US market today, delivering phenomenal performance and durability at reasonable prices. We offer both fully built rods and blanks. Fully built rods all utilize only the best fuji components. We also offer rainsuits, hats and rig wallets designed by serious fishermen specifically for serious fishermen. "

They are focusing on the Northeast Surfcaster with three rods (in John's words) at the moment;

11’ Estuary – Rated accurately at 1-4 oz. VERY slim and lightweight blank weighing in at 7.5 oz. Firm tip that works great for jigs and tins, but will load great with a bomber and can truly handle 4 oz…

10’9 Uptide – This has quickly become my personal favorite, while still a lightweight slim rod, this one has more power than the estuary.. It will handle up to 5 oz and due to the light action tip (about the top 20”), the rod will load and cast smaller stuff fine as well. I’ve personally hit 154 yards with a 4 ¼ oz sinker with this rod with a standard fishing cast. TONS of power in the butt, similar to a 1266 allstar, but much more versatile and a blast to work big swimmers and topwaters with.

12’ Universal – This rod weighs about 2 oz less than the allstar 1418 (11’9) blank that everyone loves for big tins and bait. Like the other rods in the lineup, the ease of casting is unbelievable but the distance is as good as any rod in it’s class. It will load fine with a 2 oz darter or swimmer, but is absolutely stellar with a 3-5 oz tin, or with up to 6 oz and bait. For bait fisherman, I think it would be hard to find a lighter blank that will handle big fish and this weight range any better. While the rod is not rated for this, I casted an 8 oz sinker 125 yards to see if it would do it. It worked great!

They are also associated with some favorite S-B members, like Big Dave, that represent their product lines. Many of you know Big Dave as a class act and one helluva caster

Several S-B members already have these rods and use & like them,

So please welcome S-B's new sponsor, Anyfish Anywhere USA !

Thanks!

John
