As lifelong anglers and experienced rod builders ourselves, we remain deeply committed to delivering the highest standards of craftsmanship, durability, and design to the fishing community worldwide.

From precision-engineered reel seats and high-tolerance ferrules to advanced grip technologies, cutting-edge finishes, and the world’s most awarded guide systems, American Tackle offers the most comprehensive and innovative selection of rod building components available today. Our team of industry professionals, many of whom have spent their entire careers immersed in rod component design and global manufacturing, brings over 38 years of hands-on experience to every product we create.

We are proud to be recognized as the most highly awarded company in the rod component industry, with numerous ICAST "Best of Category" honors and a proven record of pioneering patented technologies that have redefined rod performance. Signature innovations like the Microwave Guide System—the first guide system scientifically proven to improve casting distance, accuracy, and line control—have earned global acclaim for transforming both spinning and casting rod design. By eliminating line slap and energy loss through a funnel-shaped guide transition, Microwave Guides allow anglers to cast farther with more precision, while reducing fatigue and increasing efficiency on the water.

We’ve continued this tradition of breakthrough engineering with the 2023 ICAST "BEST of SHOW" TUSKA 2 our next-generation fully integrated carbon handle , which blends ultra-lightweight durability with uncompromising performance and sleek aesthetics tailored for rod applications looking to push the limits of function and design.
