Excellence: Maybe it’s just how we were raised or how we are wired. But whatever we make, whatever we do, we want it to be the best.

Respect: The world just works better when people treat one another with mutual respect.

Veteran-owned and operated since 1999. Our company was born in a Texas garage. After Trey Kistler returned home from serving in the Gulf War, he went to work with his father building fishing rods. When his dad retired, Trey decided to blaze his own trail. He decided to make an exciting life for himself, his wife and four babies. He decided to create some solid American jobs. And he decided to try and catch as many fish as possible.

So he set himself to the task of making the best bass fishing rod out there. We, and Trey, wouldn’t have it any other way. If his family name is going to be on it, it’s going to be the best. Kistler products are excellent. Period. They are the most sensitive, the most responsive, the most trustworthy. When you hold one of our rods, you know you’re holding something special.

Why "KYRIOS"?

God gave man the authority to become the master of the fish in the oceans, rivers, lakes and ponds. The fish must submit to our authority because of our God given dominion over them. In the same way, man can submit to the Lord ‘Kyrios’ Jesus Christ and give him the authority over our lives. We can believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God, that He gave himself up as a sacrifice that paid for our sins, died and resurrected again with new life and is now seated at the right hand of the God Almighty. Once we make him the Lord master of our life, we will be saved. Once we submit to Jesus as our savior, He will give you a new life here on earth and forever in heaven. It’s that simple and it’s a free gift waiting for you to open, receive and believe. With God as your Lord, Kyrios, Fishing will have never felt so good, period.
