In the past Star Rods have been a great product. Its my understanding that most of the product line went overseas with a new owner. One shop I know is not pushing the product anymore.
The Stellar Lite has been a great rod for me, the Nickelite looked like a better rod, lighter, stiffer, more responsive. More expensive.

I have a Star Nickelite 9' conv w/6500 throws 1-4 (IMO 11/2 to 2 is best) That rod is the balds. M&D's has one left. Imo its one of the best production rods out there.

Thanks for the feedback. I think I'm going to give the Star rod a try.
