Ray Z "The Rod Doctor"

I had a rod with 2 severely mashed guides...not sure how but it happened. I got a hold of Ray on Saturday and dropped the rod off. He stripped off the bad guides,re-served them properly and applied a perfect coat of epoxy.
My rod was ready today! That's service!
If anyone is looking to have a rod repaired or have a custom rod built Ray Z is your man. You will not find a more talented and reasonably priced rod builder than our own, Ray Z.
Thanks again Buddy!

Agree. Did excellent guide replacement work for me as well.

Thanks Jon, as we discussed, I have never seen those guides bent in that manner. Must have been the BAD fish Gods at work.

Wish I could post pics, Ray built a Crappie rod for me and I spent the weekend catching 3/4 pound bass and a ton of pike from 28 to 34 inches, the Rod failed to catch any Crappie, but my god it’s a fun rod to catch fish with...

Todd, you landed a 34" pike on that rod? It must of been one hell of a fight and a blast to land that one.

I love my RayZ custom built smallie rod.
(It catches LMB too)
Great rod for D/S, or fishing small jig, or weight less plastic worms, fins...……..

Thanks Ray, how many years have I had this rod now??? (CRS)

OMG, I'd say about five or more. My rod that matches yours is over ten years old and I bet has caught close to 1000 fish just on our Maine trips alone. So glad Huskybass and I could come up with such a sweet design.

Ray does saltwater rods too. I have two of Ray's 10' surf rods built on St. Croix quality blanks and I use them all winter in Florida. They are great for the normal surf species but when a huge sting ray or shark comes through and picks up the bait these are the two rods I want to have in the battle.

Kid fish convert? Thought you only fished for Tuna?
