just got my new AFW72C worm rod today from Cabelas. Looks great and can't wait to compare it to my other Mg worm rods.
The other Mg's and Helium rods I have have truly shined during those tough post front bites. I can readily detect the subtle bait pick up normally associated with this type of fishing, versus some other less well made factory rods.

great rod fo the money. Light weight and balances nicely with the new Citica E. Close in comparison to the Mg worm rod I have, but weight and the ability to detect that "light" bite was improved. I was impressed enough in the new line to have since ordered the argon 6' 11"heavy spinnerbait model and the 7' 9" long caster crank bait model.

Here's my Kistler story. I
have been on a pro-staff for another high end rod
manufacturer for four years. I had 2 of my rods
fail on me in about a week. One broke while
handling a large muskie the other my 17yr old son
was using in a club tournament and I still have
not gotten the story from him on what happened.
Well as the situation has it I was having
difficulty getting a hold of my rod company's rods
at the time. I called my friend who owns Bob's
Bait and Tackle in La Crosse WI and asked him what
he had on the shelf as I needed a replacement for
my pitching rod immediately as flippin-n-pitching
is my favorite thing to do. Well he said he would
make me a deal on the last Kistler Argon AFW72C he
had in the store and tell him how I liked it
compared to my rod company's rods. Desperate I
took him up on his offer and went and picked the
rod up. All I have to say about your product at
Kistler is WOW!!!!! That rod is the finest thing I
have ever used for pitching Sweet Beavers and
Dream Tubes around cover. It also is the best rod
I have ever used for skipping the same baits way
back under boat docks. Needlsess to say I am now a
huge fan of your product and look to replace
everything I own with it. Bang for buck your Argon
series is awesome.
