MEET PIRATE SCOTT

Man on a boat holding a large fish with a body of water in the background.

As a lifelong fisherman, Pirate Scott knows the importance of good equipment, and he’s tried it all. So when he couldn’t find the perfect balance of low weight and high sensitivity he’d always wanted in a store-bought rod, he decided to build his own. That was back in 2009. Nowadays, he’s busy giving that same tailored experience to other fishermen, making rods using the best quality components for his customers.

 “I enjoy creating rods that people will use and hopefully hand down to others. It is a great feeling to see the smile on someone’s face when you hand them the rod they helped design.”

- Pirate Scott

 “IF YOU’RE LOOKING FOR A CUSTOM-BUILT FISHING ROD BUILT BY AN ACTUAL FISHERMAN, CHECK OUT PIRATE SCOTT’S CUSTOM RODS! I TALKED WITH SCOTT ABOUT WHAT I ENJOY FISHING FOR, AND HE GAVE ME CHOICES OF WHAT WOULD WORK BEST FOR ME. WE SETTLED ON LENGTH, ACTION, REEL, AND COLOR. AND HE TOOK IT FROM THERE! HIS ATTENTION TO DETAIL IS GREAT! YOU CAN SEE HE CARES ABOUT HIS FINISHED PRODUCT AND HIS CUSTOMERS’ HAPPINESS. MY FIRST CAST WITH MY NEW ROD, I CAUGHT A FISH, WHAT MORE CAN YOU ASK FOR! HAVE TO SAY THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST FISHING ROD I HAVE EVER OWNED. I DEFINITELY WOULD HAVE SCOTT BUILD ME ANOTHER FISHING ROD. YOU CAN’T GET THAT QUALITY FROM A BOX STORE ROD.” - Melbourne T.

“I MET SCOTT BECAUSE I NEEDED A ROD REPAIRED. UNFORTUNATELY, THE SECTION I NEEDED FOR THE ROD WAS NO LONGER AVAILABLE. AS SCOTT AND I BEGAN TO TALK, I LEARNED HE BUILT RODS. I WAS LOOKING FOR A FLY ROD THAT WAS SHORT, 7', TO PACK INTO THE ADIRONDACK BACKCOUNTRY TO FISH FOR NATIVE BROOK TROUT.  SCOTT BUILT ME A PACKABLE FLY ROD THAT I CAN CARRY INTO THE WILDERNESS CHASING BROOKIES. THANK YOU SCOTT!” - Paul M.
