Introducing “The All Around” from My Fishing Cape Cod

by Ryan Collins

The All Around

is now available!

Having the right fishing rod is important, right? When we use the right rod good things happen:

1) We cast further
2) We impart better action to the lure
3) We fight fish more efficiently

So what’s stopping us from buckling down and outfitting ourselves with the best possible rod for the type of fishing we enjoy most?

Maybe it’s the overwhelm and confusion from the myriad rod choices and model numbers. Or the price point.

For me, I know I used to really get hung up on doing endless research and reading countless reviews. Before I knew it I'd spent hours of time I didn't have contemplating the right rod choice. 

However, eventually I realized I could quickly cut through all that nonsense by consulting with fishing rod experts who live and breathe fishing rods. And those experts are none other than Zack Richardson and his talented team of rod builders from Zack's Custom Rods.

 So here’s our first step:

We are going to start by offering a high quality rod that's specifically designed to cover 80% of all inshore fishing applications on Cape Cod. 

"The All Around" is the first of the new line of My Fishing Cape Cod rods, and it's designed to get you the most bang for your buck.

You can use this rod to target stripers, bluefish, tautog and other inshore species from boat, kayak and even from shore!

As the name suggests, "The All Around" will be a fun and light rod for any inshore fishing application. You'll be able to throw topwater plugs, jigs, soft plastics, hard body baits, live eels and much more.

The blank that this rod is built from is used by commercial fishermen and charter captains throughout Cape Cod and the Islands.

If you've gone on one of our MFCC striper group fishing trips with captain Cullen of Cape Star Charters, then you've used this rod blank before.

The MFCC "All Around" will be the perfect choice for boat and kayak anglers. It can also be used from shore, especially when fishing back bays and harbors. In a real pinch you could even use it at the canal.

Don't be afraid to tackle some larger species as well with the "All Around", as the rod will pack an incredible punch! From stripers to tautog, boat fishing to shore fishing, I firmly believe that this rod truly is the all around solution for inshore fishing the Cape & Islands.

The ideal reel size to pair with this rod will range from a 4500-5500 sized reel.

Here are the specs...

Action: Medium Fast
Length: 7'
Line Weight (lbs): 15-30
Lure: 3/4-3.5oz
Pieces: 1

"The All Around" is built from the best materials possible with components assembled by hand locally in Westport, Massachusetts. Epoxy work will be seamless, guide wraps will be even and symmetrical, and everything will flow as it should. Attention to detail will be a must.

We will also be incorporating an efficient long cast layout, a strategic reel seat placement, and exceptional wrapping/epoxy work to ensure that the "All Around" is the best possible inshore rod you can buy for your money. 

In addition, The All Around will come with a lifetime guarantee courtesy of Zack's Custom Rods. All rods are guaranteed to be free from defects in material and workmanship.

In addition...

If within the first 30 days you decide you do not like "The All Around" then I will personally buy it back from you (as long as the rod is still in good shape) with no questions asked!*

*You'll just have to cover the cost of shipping

By creating the "All Around" my goal is to provide you with the highest quality, most detailed oriented inshore rod on the market, to cover 80% of all inshore Cape Cod fishing applications, at a price point that won't break your bank.

Tight lines! 🎣

I'm fortunate to have grown up on the beach, and I've been fishing since kindergarten. I have great family, friends and fishing experiences to be thankful for. Just being out there is enough-catching fish is just a bonus!
