The anglers who fish our rods for a living, on the biggest stages in the sport.
“In today’s world of electronics and new fishing techniques you can’t afford to miss a single bite, or lose a fish to not properly pairing your baits to the best action of rod available. For 16 years I have been doing just that with the entire line of Kistler rods.”
“My Kistler rods connect me to the fish. From the feel of the lure, to the strike, to the moment I lip that hawg, my Kistlers are simply irreplaceable.”
A Bassmaster Elite Series veteran with ten Classic appearances and eighteen top-ten finishes. Won the 2016 Toyota Texas Bass Classic championship, and his deep roots on the Tennessee River make him one of the most respected technical bass anglers in the country.
An Arkansas-based professional angler and Bass Pro Tour competitor known for his versatility, competitive drive and ability to adapt on the water. A proven tournament winner, Dylan has competed at the highest levels of professional bass fishing.
“For years I’ve put Kistler rods through the toughest conditions and I’ve never had one break, never had a guide insert pop out, and they continue to be the lightest, strongest and most sensitive rods in the industry. No wonder — they’ve been doing it over 20 years.”
An NPFL competitor with a proven tournament resume, highlighted by the 2012 Department of Defense Championship at 73 lb across three days, dozens of American Bass Anglers victories and multiple checks in FLW Stren and MLF Toyota Series events.
