Really ??? :confused:
"Good quality rods and priced very reasonable," don't belong in the same sentence. Whats next Mr Softees ??:eek: |
Well, I guess I should raise the price and make more money.;)
|
How about just sticking to boats... ???
CB Angler already has a resident rod maker.:) |
Can't do!:)

Bill,
When I build rods for guys I always tell them I cannot come close to rods you can buy off the rack. The thing about store bought rods is that they make about a trillion of them the same way that’s why they can sell them for a lot less. That is a really good price on those rods just wish I could get a good blank for that price. :( Hell I put up a post a week ago trying to sell some trolling rods at a discount price and only had 3 guys call me about them and none of them even got one and I was only asking $100.00 for a Custom Built rod. |
Steve, just start building boats, can't be that hard. Give someone here a sweet, below market deal, and they in turn will sing your praises, until they are blue in the face. Have an open house up in Bum F Walkersville, serve some chow, few beers, your good !
Whatta business plan.. I'm a f'ing genius...:):):) |
If that’s what it takes to make a couple of bucks maybe I’ll have to do that. We eat a lot of yard bird up here so that will be the main dish…You ready to head South next week, I know I am my bags have been packed for 2 weeks…..

If you are interested in a sweet custom rod that can be personalized with your initials, name, or picture of your favorite fish that you target, see Steve. 5th (Marty) p.s. That should be worth at least a beer and some chips:D. p.p.s. When my gas tank needed replacing, Bill Judge did the work in a timely manner and at a very resonable price. Even if you are not in the market for a new boat, Bill can do repairs or modifications for you. That's worth two beers and a bag of chips. |
Really???
Wow! In the event you hadn’t heard, there is a recession going on. You can hardly chastise Bill for adding a few rods to his business plan. In a tough economy, is it not his right to modify his plan to try to offset his costs a little? Boat builders are sinking left and right. He has a real nice facility and lots of overhead to pay for. Still, he’s generous enough to have an open house where an awful lot of people came and sucked down free food and drinks on his dime. I’m sure many of the people that were there hope to be a Judge owner one day, but Bill had no problem rolling out the red carpet for ALL that could attend. Thank you again!
I am lucky enough (or dumb enough) to be a 2 boat owner. Both happen to be built by Bill. I bought and paid for them just like everyone else does. I have also bought a pair of the JY rods and have sold another 6 to friends since they have seen mine. They seem to be great rod for a fair price; I can't wait to use them! It’s really a GREAT business plan if you think about it- “I’m selling a boat with all these rod holders, why not offer a good rod for a reasonable price to fill them up?? I can save my customer the time and trouble of going somewhere else to buy rods.” What a value-added service! It’s not like Judge Yachts is in the rod business, nor ever plans to be. Bill is just trying to create another loyal BOAT buying customer, like me. Fortunately, some folks are in a position to buy all custom rods, some are not. If you can afford customs, fantastic! If not, here’s an option better than supporting Wal-Mart. I thank you for the boats, the rods, AND the pulled pork sandwich at the Open House. I appreciate ALL that you do! -Jeff Ps- Bill, if you DO get into the Mr Softee’s business next- I prefer vanilla. |
Rods and Boats
Perhaps one should be familiar with more than one of the subject items before giving their "expert" opinions on either.
For example; I caught my first fish at the Rips today and the perfectly balanced rod was the reason. That is funny. Every Swinging Dick in the area is catching fish out there and it's not because they are good fisherman. Boat building is at least an order of magnitude more difficult than putting together a rod in the backyard. So don't compare the two. Let everyone post what they want on this board. MRN |

Does that even get the taste of poo from all that butt kissing out of your mouth? :o :D When you start telling everyone with an Angler "Nice Boat" at the end of your posts, you'll never get a ride again :) |

I have store bought LT rods too but nothing compares to a nice custom.This is my second Back Yard Custom and my new fav on the boat. And Hey....I don't give a s*** what you call it,brown nose or what ever:rolleyes: ...Steve builds a helluva nice stick. |
Not sure how you can compare a boat building to a rod builder and just because I build rods in my backyard and not a shop like other guys don’t knock it it’s all I got. I build a good rod for a very fair price and I would guess that Bill builds great boats as well. When you start comparing $80,000 boats to a $150.00 rod I guess I’m in the wrong business.
I know when Marty picked up his rod his next stop was a local tackle shop, not BP to match a reel to his rod. If you don’t think a good balance rod doesn’t make a difference then put a reel that weights about 14oz on an M/H action rod and jig with it ALL day long and see how your arms feel at the end of the day. By the way Marty you and Roger have a 6 pack and 2 bags of chips coming your way…. Thanks for the plug guys I really appreciate it. |

Funny thread.. I dont think Bill is looking to get into building custom rods one at a time for people like steve does. Bill does that with boats. However The rods bill is selling are very nice and I plan on getting a couple jigging rods and trolling rods from him. Steve F is your guy for custom rods.

Dang guys..thought I was over at the other place for a minute there:(..Mark

One of my favorite rods is a low budget POS I got years ago for about $17.00.
I bought it as a " loaner " rod when a certain brother in law fishes with me. He has a history of damaging my tackle. I used the rod and found it just about perfect for bottom fishing with 2 ozs of sinker. I have rods that cost way more but still like the cheap one. You can not always judge ( no pun intended ) a rod just by price. These sound like nice middle of the road rods. Not cheap ones but not top dollar either. |
Man,
I never thought it would come to this!:) I have them on display at the Cambridge show if you want to see them. Give me some feedback.:):(:confused::mad: Bill |
Bill - don't sweat 1-2 negative people.
Most internet sites have a few resident nay sayers / bullies - best just to ignore them. Very likely something is wrong in their life - so that take it out on others via the computer. After a while - you can almost predict what they will say. |
