At Moonshine, we do our very best to ensure quality control, including a lift test on every blank before it hits the wrapping table and is completed. Every rod is inspected by one of our staff in the USA.
Rods
- All of our Midnight Specials are handcrafted in the USA using high-quality foreign and domestic components, including South Korean blanks, designed to our specs.
- Our series rods are assembled by hand utilizing South Korean and Japanese graphite or glass, with top-quality hardware. Most of our series rods are made in South Korea whereas some others are made in China.
Reels
- The Creede reel was designed here in the USA but machined and made in South Korea.
Cork
- Our cork is sourced and hand-turned by a Veteran owned company in the Pacific Northwest. We turn and stain our reel seats, by hand, in Virginia where each rod is completed.
