Posted: Thu Sep 05, 2013 11:35 am Post subject: Carrot Stix Butt Cap Question |
|
|
I have a 7ft E21 Carrot Stix Gold Rod and in need of a replacement Butt Cap.
It seems the company may be out of business because of all the feedback left on different search engines.
I have emailed them and left voicemails and I never get a call back.
Roy's did not have a universal one to fit my rod.
I found a couple of different Facebook Pages for Carrot Stix and sent them messages and no luck there as well.
Any help would be appreciated. .. _________________ "Do not call my Jeep a Car ever again " |

This may be a bad question, but have you tried 2cool? I seem to remember the owner being an active poster on that one. Either way, try posting that question there because I know I've read about them on 2cool when I did a search on them a while back. Good luck. _________________ Fish hard.

Apparently they are under new ownership.. or E21 sold the fishing/rod division or something. I don't know the whole story... but did find a contact email for you ( jimmyd@catronicsusa.com).
Here is a link with more info as well:

We own a number of Carrot Stix rods and have had very good luck with them. Apparently, not everyone has. All of ours were early production runs though. |

Have you tried a rutabaga for a butt cap?
Sorry, please forgive me...
