The Unique process that make Texas Sidewinder Rods The Most Sensitive and Reliable Fishing Rod on the market today.
- Whether you choose the unique Spiral wrap or the Conventional wrap each rod is built with the same components and care. Only top Quality Components are use with each and every rod.
- We coat behind every guide for a stronger hold in keeping the guides straight and from corrosion getting behind the thread. We use only Flex Coat Products.
- Every rod has the reel seat aligned with the spine of the blank which eliminates the twist at the tip, allowing each hook set to have the power and response expected when fishing for that trophy.
- Each blank is put through a rigorous flex test inspection to ensure there are no visible defects. This test is done at the blank factory and then again before the rod is assembled.
- Following the build process each Sidewinder Rod is put through a final inspection to provide the angler with a fishing rod that he or she can depend upon for a lifetime.
How To Choose Your Texas Sidewinder Rod

Action and Power
Action and power, when used in connection with fishing rods, are often misused.
Action is simply put, the way a rod or blank bends. This is described by four different terms:
Extra Fast: Flex in the upper 1/4 of the rod blank.
Fast: Flex in the upper 1/3 of the rod blank.
Moderate: Flex in the upper 1/2 of the rod blank.
Slow: Flex is from the lower 1/3 of the rod blank.
Power is best described as the amount of energy or force that is needed to make a rod blank bend. CastAway uses the following power ratings to rate its rods
Power Rating |
| Power 1 |
Ultralight |
| Power 2 |
Light |
| Power 3 |

Our Cork fits snug to the blank without tape to reduce the excess epoxy for a better feel in your hand and an overall weight reduction for those really long days on the water.
|
|
|
Texas Sidewinder Rods still use only top quality Titanium Oxide Guides on all of our rods. This allows fishermen a unique difference in durability and sensitivity over the standard steel guides in the market place today.
|
|
|
All of our casting rods utilize the Full Exposed Blank Thru Reel Seats for better feel and sensitivity. Each reel seat is bored to a tapered fit to fit the taper of the blank. No tape or fillers are used.
|
|
|
Texas Sidewinder Rods uses Titanium Oxide Hook Keepers that will allow you to store your bait right on the rod. This design will not rust and is more durable than the plastic or rubber keepers that are used on some rods.
