Cajun Rods Product Reviews
I purchased a Custom Valor as a replacement for a St Croy Premier rod I broke lifting a huge albino catfish. I’ve always fished Premiere rods because they are also made in the USA but Cajun is hands down better. They have better components and feel better in general.
My experience after fishing the rod for about a month casting 1 and 2 oz weights for catfish in Lake Erie has been exceptional. I think the mf action helps the cast and it loads nice and smooth then whips the bait out into the horizon.
Customer service was exceptional and I got to interact with a real person in America. They helped me pick thread colors to match my reel and they really made sure I was happy too.
Bottom line this is a reasonably priced high end fishing rod that is made by someone who cares in the USA.
The Savannah 6'/6" Medium Heavy rod is my first Cajun purchase. I have had the rod out twice (Bass fishing) and I am very pleased with its performance. I fish out of a (sit in) kayak which is a tight fit all-around. Perhaps the thing that impresses me the most is the accuracy of the Savannah. The Savannah has definitely improved my ability to hit targets. Additionally, the Savannah makes easy work of long casts from the seated position in enclosed space. Finally, I am impressed with the strong backbone of this rod which really has helped with fast and secure hook sets. I am very pleased with my Cajun rod and I encourage shoppers to do business with you.
It is not as good as the first one I bought. Seems,are made different now. Previous I bought 5+years ago at Houston fishing show
Ordered my Custom Coastal 812 and it arrived on time at my local Post Office. Unfortunately, my one piece rod arrived in two pieces. Called Jessica and she immediately put the replacement order in the factory and it arrived 5 days later. Absolutely beautiful. Can’t wait to head to the coast this weekend!
Love our new Rods - great action and responsiveness- highly recommended
I had a rod from them that needed to be replaced and they replaced it and they were super helpful and super quick with the replacement. Definitely looking forward to dealing with them in the future!
I really like these rods however I sent back my first savanna after the tip broke on a hook set last week. Currently waiting to hear back on what issue was.
After fishing with this rod for a couple weeks now, i can say the rod is very sensitive and duriable. Alot of pros. Maybe in the future maybe work on a new style of cork handles. Thanks again
Have had great service from Cajun Customs always quick service and the warranty is unbeatable. My preferred brand and. USA made you can’t go wrong.
Spent 12 hours wading and kayaking with my 813. The rod is beautiful, extremely well made, and handled trout and smaller reds great. Good feel and sensitivity fishing paddletails and top water lures. The only thing I like better on my other wading rod is the handle. There is nothing wrong with the cajun handle, however I do prefer the handles that allow you to feel the rod. The quality, customization, and the fact that it is made in the USA, defifinately put this rod in my top three. Thanks cajun.
I needed a stout sensitive rod and this one is just right.
I got my first Cajun rod after experiencing their sensitivity at the Houston Fishing Show where the rep had me hold the rod and drag the tip over his business card. I could feel the ridges on the card with the pole, but not with my finger. I was sold.
After buying additional CC 812 1C rods for my son and wife in the years following I wanted to try out a slightly stiffer rod the CC 813 1C for my fall Canadian fishing trip for smallmouth, pike and musky. I ordered the rod to arrive on Monday a week before I was heading to Canada. It didn’t. On Wednesday I contacted Cajun for help. The owners knew I wanted the rod for my trip so they decided to build a replacement rod on Thursday, ship it on Friday to arrive on Saturday in time for me to take it to Canada.
So far it has landed some nice smallmouth and pike, still time to land a musky.
Ordered the Trigger 6' med light baitcasting rod, I live close enough to pick it up instead of shipping it, while at their shop, the owners gave me a shop tour, showed me how the rods are made, quite wild to see the process, we talked fishing, showed off fish pictures on my phone, took the rod out the same day, great action, sensitivity, good balance and felt great in my hand, caught 6 smallmouths in a couple hours, Cajun rods has my business from now on, just wish I found them sooner
I wanted a rod made in USA and came across Cajun. It's my 4th Cajun Rod, not my last either. This is powerful yet still very sensitive. I got the 6'6" MH spinning and paired with a 7.1oz 3000 size reel, balances great. The rods are on sale frequently and the thread customization is just a really nice cherry on top. Shipping was on time and packaged very nicely. I'm a very happy customer.
I needed an oddball size / speed combination for a competition rod and Cajun surpassed every expectation. Performs excellently and the styling is superb. Highly recommend.
Haven't been able to use the rod yet. But first impression is hell of a rod for the money.
Nice rod, feels great, packaged very well and made in USA
I started my re-entry into baitcasting just looking for a rod that wasn't a broomstick for throwing heavy baits. That led to the world of "bfs" gear and then I wanted to buy American made, so after a couple of other USA made rods I happened on the Cajun brand. I wish I'd started here. Excellent rod and value. Everything I wanted while going through my trial and error learning curve. Casts extremely well, light, balanced and sensitive. And playing bass that aren't lunkers is back to fun! The rod looks great too and I like the small but visible American flag graphic on the rod. Great rod!
Purchased this along with a Savannah spinning rod and the feel and quality are great. Night and day difference in quality from my rod/reel combos from the sporting goods store. Well worth the price in my opinion.
This rod(my 2nd one ordered)is an answer to a need for a shorter rod that is good on the front of the boat or fishing from the shore. Spinnerbait, jig/chatterbait, topwater, Senko rig! 6-1/2' to 7' is the norm and longer now and I cannot understand why(unless you are throwing heavy swim baits or large 8XD Crankbaits). If I need more backbone..................I have it but, why if you don't need a longer rod. This thing slings a 1/2oz. spinnerbait(or jig) just the way I need it to.
