South Oz Rods

As its newest Sponsor to fishSA.com, Rob Wilson from the South Oz Rods, offers to the Recreational Angler, a unique service in Rod Building and Maintenance, as well as Custom Made Rods for sale.

Reel Maintenance is also on his list of services, offering the opportunity to ressurect old reels. As his Sponsorship Logo says,

Rob first started in 1981 repairing rods, doing reel services, and spinning custom rods for customers.

From here Rob went on to retail work in one of Adelaides big franchised fishing and bait stores where he kept doing custom rods and repairs on rods and reels.

After starting his own business in 1993 working from home, Rob finally opened the shop front store in 1996 to directly reach the customers.

Rob wanted a store that specialised in custom rods, rod repairs and reel service. Robs experience comes from this background of all the years of contact with anglers.

As Rob says, "All anglers have their own views and ways of fishing and I build, rebuild or repair as the angler wants and not how someone else says that it should be.".

Of course sometimes anglers are never 100% sure of what's possible or what they want so dealing with a specialist makes sure it get's done right.

South Oz Rods is proudly South Australian, and caters for and services Metropolitan, Regional and Interstate enquiries and customers.
