Captain Matthias Henningsen - The time for perfection has come

I have fished many rods over the years; even some which I thought were the best, which is until I fished a Precision Rod, Mind Blowing to say the least. With some of the finest thread work ever seen and performance unmatched to anything I have seen or used. But what really convinced me was the performance of these rods. I have used many rods over the years but none come even close to Precision Rods. Finally we found some rods which hold what they promise. Precision Rods, makers of rods that exceed all expectation. We have pushed the line to its limit and the rods perform exactly the way we need it. The 80 lb stand up, my favourite is a perfect pole to catch grander Blue and giant tuna! If you don't own a Precision Rod then you're simply outgunned from the start.

Stuart understands that fishing rods not only have to look good but be extremely functional also. Not afraid to think a little out of the square and test the boundaries of fishing rod design and construction, Stuart's rods are among the finest in the world. If unparalleled workmanship and functionality are more important to you than the cost, then you won't be disappointed with a Precision Rod.”

I have been using Precision Rods for many years now. I was always a lover of custom rods and owned and had used most of the BEST there was to buy on the market.

One day whilst fishing with a mate in Queensland, I had the opportunity to use a custom Precision Rod for the first time and was blown away by the performance.

To most anglers, a rod is a stick between them and the fish only there to cushion the stresses that the line can impart onto it when the fish is going crazy, but to me, a rod is a tool that helps me not only enjoy fishing more, but also help me get the fish faster.

I remember vividly many years ago when I had a double header and hooked a 90lb Yellowfin Tuna one day on 16lb line and another fish a bit smaller(maybe about 80lb) on 30lb line. Well, I had mine boatside from ‘shotgun' position ready to release in less than half the time it took my accomplished friend to subdue his.

From that day on I was a convert completely and set about testing the theory more and more. Since then, I have had many first time anglers tag their first marlin on my boat on 16lb line(most fish between120-200lb) and they handle the gear with ease and the rod works that fish fast. Im not one for sloppy rods. I prefer a great game rod that's a bit longer than usual which helps me in faster line retrieval and I like a rod with lots of GRUNT (lifting power) down low.

I have used Precision rods in 12lb, 16lb,20lb,30lb,50lb and 80lb and have found them to be not only awesome in performance, but also faultless in durability and service.

To anyone that has not used one, they really don't know what they are missing.

I thoroughly recommend Stuart Mackenzie's ‘Precision Rods' to all of my friends and have no trouble in matching them against the so called best on the market.
